The game is remarkably merciful in showing exactly which [=ROMs=] you have, though tracking down the ones you don't is a very big GuideDangIt. One hidden [=NPC=] who gives you a [=ROM=] promises "something good will happen" if you find all of them, but this is not true.

* ''NoMoreHeroes'' features this in the form of collectible cards. One must beat the game '''three times''' minimum if they fail to acquire one of the cards on a playthrough. This Troper can't exactly recall whether the second playthrough allows you to collect a entirely different second set of cards, or whether it just let you see the ''backs'' of the cards you've collected.

Added DiffLines:

* ''{{Crackdown}}'' has you pick up agility orbs, hidden orbs and stunt rings that require you to jump at them with a vehicle. They serve a useful purpose as they increase your stats, but you're guaranteed to max out your agility long before collecting all 500 agility orbs and all other stats are more easily raised in combat.
** A DLC adds collecting cars for the Agency garage.
** ''{{Crackdown}} 2'' has all this and also audio logs (short messages of plot exposition), online orbs that can only be collected in multiplayer, renegade agility and driving orbs that fly away from you so you have to chase them, on foot or in a car depending on type, and another type of stunt rings you have to collect by [[VideoGameFlight gliding with the "wingsuit"]].
