Lots of info, and a code for training for the game. The Amazon price is the best. I have always like knowing stats and info on military stuff since I was in the military for over ten years, and yes I miss it, and it is in here.

O.C.O.T. is basically a tracking tool to account for all your achievements in BF3, such as dog tags earned, weapons, unlocks and the like. I didn't find this tool especially useful since BF3's Battlelog does a better job, in my opinion, of tracking and updating everything automatically. With O.C.O.T., it's a pain because you have to manually enter all the information yourself.

I also didn't find the photo tour through the DICE offices to be especially riveting, basically offering the same old fare that you would get with any other "collector's edition" strategy guide. Once you peruse the...Read more
