Shortly after the official release date was announced at E3 Gran-Turismo.com posted details of a forth coming Collector’s Edition for Gran Turismo 5.
Scheduled for release on November 2nd (of this year) at a price of $99 the Collector’s Edition will include the following:
a Die-Cast 1:43 scale 2009 Nissan GT-R Spec V with a Gran Turismo livery produced by Kyosho
a Custom etched Gran Turismo key chain
a 300+ page book covering everything from car history, to driving technique, to tuning tips.
a voucher for five (5) exclusive high-end cars with custom Gran Turismo livery and performance upgrades
Numbered certificate of authenticity
Custom collector’s packaging
Those who pre-order will also get bonus cars including a “Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG, Nissan GT-R GT500, McLaren F1, and more.”
This looks to be releasing in both North America and Europe, most likely the rest of the world as well. They state that “production will be limited” but there’s nothing that really states HOW limited that is.
The included diecast car is an exclusive 1:43 scale 2009 Nissan GT-R Spec V with a custom Gran Turismo livery designed by Polyphony Digital, produced by well-known collectible car maker Kyosho,
GameStop recently listed a Collector’s Edition of the upcoming Star Wars The Force Unleashed II. Slated for release for both Xbox 360 and PS3 on October 26th this CE will cost just under $80 and includes the following content:
Steelbook Case
“Exclusive” In-Game Content
Three challenge mode levels
Ralph McQuarrie concept “Deak Starkiller” skin
Lightsaber crystal
Mimobot USB Designer Drive Preloaded with Bonus Content
Starkiller 2GB Flash Drive designed by Mimobot
Digital art book
With bonus content being included by way of a USB flash drive, here’s hoping it does fall victim to the same problem that plagued the Splinter Cell Conviction CE.

It seems severalUKretailers are listing an Assassin’s Creed II Complete Edition for release on June 4th. What makes it “Complete” is apparently the inclusion of the two DLC packs and the secret location that were previously only available to Uplay subscribers.
I’m guessing this is probably the same thing as the previously rumored “Game of the Year” Edition.
I picked up the Alan Wake Limited Collector’s Edition last night and I must say I’m very impressed with it. A game that was first announced around the Xbox 360’s launch it’s been a long time coming, and they definitely delivered on making this what I would consider to be the best CE release so far this year, and definitely one of the most unique CE’s this generation.
If you’re into Anime and Video Games you’re probably already well aware of this quite rare game release (at least rare for US gamers). Kotaku already did a video unboxing, and there honestly isn’t much to see (literally physically and figuratively pictorially) so I’ll spare you the details. Images are up on the game page though.
The cover art is apparently too hot for GameStop so if you want to skeeve out to the game box you’ll have to do it here as opposed to in the store. Just don’t get… ice cream… all over your keyboard.
…and yes the titted mouse pad is equal parts cool, creepy, and confusing, just as you’d imagine it would be.
So I picked up my Pre-Order of Splinter Cell Conviction Collector’s Edition last night. The Clerk recognized me and already knew what I was there for; starting to fetch my game before I even had a chance to respond to his greeting. He asked to make sure I knew the included USB cards were known to be faulty, informing me that he canceled his own pre-order because of it. I told him I didn’t really care, I don’t think I’ve ever used an included USB stick in the past.
and you will also receive the Renegade Pack, a DLC content pack including new cars and new outfits. Using the link above will also help support CollectorsEdition.org
