I don't know if this has been posted before, and if it has sorry then, but I did not find it.  I have reached the part of Game Over, and I can no longer go back to Springfield, but I have not found all collectibles yet, and I was wondering, will I have the chance to go back and collect those after these collectibles?  I really would like to get all on my first run through the game, and not having to do it again.  Anyone can help?  I would really appreciate it.

I forget exactly how... but you can get back to Springfield after completing the final level. Just go through the menu options of the game and you'll find it.

It's in the same part as where you look at your "achievements" for each level (collectibles, level completion time etc)
Sorry if that doesn't make sense, but I can't remember exactly how to find it.

Actually, it does make sense, and I tried to select it, but it does not allow me like on the other levels, but I'm assuming that like you said, maybe it will be available after I finish the final level.  Thanks, you have just given me some hope of not loosing my mind by having to do this all over again.

Okay... I just booted up the game to help you out so we're both on the same page.

I selected "continue game" and it loaded in Springfield. But as you haven't completed the game yet, it will obviously load the last level for you. Just wanted to kinda clear that up so there's no confusion.

If you require any help in finding the collectibles around Springfield, or in any level, use 360 video guides. I did and it helped me an awful lot. I prefer that then reading it, and then searching for it.

Very helpful.  Thanks a lot.  Saw you are playing Silent Hill.  It seemed pretty good, but nothing changed combatwise.  I still have to finish it, but if you are a fan it seems to give you what you are asking for.  Enjoy it.

No worries buddy.

Hehehe yeah.. The game isn't for sale in Australia (they sent the banned version of the game, so we have to wait a while), so I had to import it from the U.K. Only played about 10mins and it was okay... controls are decent and not difficult.

Oh my bad.  I did not noticed you were from Down Under.  Well it is good fun.  Not difficult at all, it feels more like hanging around with stoners that will make you laugh for a while, with not much of a purpose than to hang out, and laugh at silly stuff.
