When Gran Turismo->ke3689 released its video racing simulator franchise four years ago with Nissan, that partnership eventually led to Gran Turismo: The Academy. Just like all genius ideas, further ideas sprout from said original idea to create another idea that leads to...well, you get the picture.

That's why it comes as no surprise to us that the Gran Turismo 5: GT Academy Edition is dropping onto shelves in the next month. The pack - or in this case, disc - will include all the packs Gran Turismo has made available in the past couple years. Yep, you'll get treated to Car Packs 1, 2, and 3, as well as Course Packs 1 and 2. It'll also contain a Special Paint Pack, a Racing Gear Pack, and the cherry on top of the sundae, the Nissan GT-R that was used at the Nurburgring 24-Hour Endurance Race by Kazunori Yamauchi.

For the affordable price of €29.99 - that's about $28 based on current rates - you can have all of it in one pretty cool package. Check out the video and you'll probably be counting down the days to its release after you're done.
