There is no debating that this is a seriously pricey edition of GT5. Yes, it is probably slightly overpriced at £150 but not nearly as much as you may think. I was very dubious about buying this edition having already had the standard edition since launch, I knew it was stupid but in the end I literally couldn't resist. After trading in a few old games including the standard GT5 I paid £82 for this, comfortably the most I have ever spent on a game. I have no regrets at all. This package really is something special and the quality of the included items is REALLY REALLY impressive.The ELEVEN dlc cars which come with this edition are only available as a whole in this edition.You get the chrome-line cars in the cheaper collector's edition but would have only got 2 of the 6 stealth cars with a pre-order from certain retailers. I can tell you all 6 stealth cars are PHENOMENAL! They also enable faster progression through the game and save you the more than 100 HOURS of your life you would have to spend racing to earn equivalent versions of these cars! As an added bonus you get a cool customizable dynamic theme for your XMB home page!The box that this edition comes in is large and, as with all other components of the set, is of the HIGHEST quality. Beautiful Mercedes painted gloss black outer with sturdy foam inner.The APEX driving guide is PACKED with intesting general automotive info and though it isn't a game guide as such it is useful, very interesting and the print quality is fantastic.The 4GB USB GT key fob is premium quality, very useful and pre-loaded with extra GT production vids etc.The metal Key Ring is weighty and nicely finished in matt and gloss silver.The Black wallet is REALLY nice quality soft leather with good layout.The collectible, limited model Mercedes SLS AMG that comes with is nicely presented but didn't really interest me. May be valuable to collector later?The hardback coffee table book is beautiful quality but again was not the reason for my purchase. Nice pics though!Perhaps most exciting of all is the Competition entry card which gives you a good chance to win an ACTUAL Merecedes Benz SLS AMG supercar worth £250,000 and which you would have to wait ages on a waiting list to obtain otherwise. As this edition of the game is strictly limited the number of competitors is relatively low so it's not like doing the lottery, the odds are significantly better. It's based around the B-spec mode see the GT website for details.The GAME itself? Well, I'm not a hardcore GT fan, I loved GT3 and couldn't really get on with GT4 but GT5 is absolutely great. Took me back to happy GT3 memories. GT5 grows on you. Fans of the GT series shouldn't hesitate in buying this. Newcomers should be aware that GT is a driving simulator not an arcade racer (Though there is an arcade mode). It is the most complete driving experience available especially when used with a wheel.I'm not particularly into cars, I have a driving license but don't own a car as I don't need one. This game however is cleverly inducing a love for all things automotive. Yes in GT Mode you generally start off in "crap" cars but this way you learn the driving mechanics, the competition is more tight and you learn to enjoy "normal" cars in a way you wouldn't otherwise, then, when you get your first Ferrari, you feel like you've really earned it and you tune it and appreciate it. There are SOOOOO many cool cars in this game including a plethora of real classics and race editions, 2nd hand and new. If you love collecting and leveling up you'll never get bored! There's loads of tuning/cosmetic options and literally millions of tuning variations, you will learn how different components and subtle changes to settings affect a car's characteristics and performance. The tracks are beautifully designed and everything looks ultra real in HD (If you can forgive the pixel people who occasionally populate the track sides).This game teaches you all sorts about automotive history, driving, cars and car mechanics but you have to be ready to learn patiently. If you think the game is crap I guarantee it's because in one way or another, YOU'RE not good enough yet. The whole GT5 experience is just brilliant and to the skeptics I say; have patience and look harder, the extent of this game's brilliance is subtle. 5 years in development? To me it's already obvious why, there's just so much to it and such fine quality but as time goes on it's just going to get better and better. Patches are being released already to improve and vary the already excellent game-play and options. Everyone is ranting about the flaws of the game but I just think you've got to forgive PD for these minor problems considering what they have achieved and remember they'll iron these out over time (5 years is a long time but it was a "RUSHED release" due to impatient fans and marketing pressure!!!). Don't believe the hype, positive or negative, just give the game a proper chance! You'll see.Bearing in mind I don't generally pay more than £15 for a game: Get the limited signature edition, if you can't get that get the collectors and if you can't get that then get the standard edition which even at full price is a bargain!It's a massively deep, massively playable game don't miss out!

was unsure whether to buy as I expected that the dlc would have expired and not sure of what to expect.I was amazed when I received it and opened up and saw everything was pristine and of excellent quality.I was even more surprised when I keyed in the code for the extra content and everything was still valid and worked.I would definatley recommend this this product but especially this seller.Very quick delivery too.

Gran Turismo 5 by its self is of such high quality but the collectors edition is just off the scale the way that they provide you with a professionally painted box with a small toy car and books for the real car people that relates to racing on the game and the real track I would recommend it for all gaming enthusiasts it is a brilliant game.

I've had Gran Turismo 5 for a year now and because it is an excellent game I decided to take advantage of such a cheap price for the signature edition. The package arrived quickly in good condition with the contents mentioned and it looks great.Considering it cost me this much for the game initially, this is great value for money.

I thought I had missed the boat on getting one of these great sets, whilst others were charging silly prices I was lucky to find a sensible seller and am delighted with this set. The carbon cars alone are worth the extra
