I pretty much ran from light to light and only fought the required enemies to beat it without dying if that helps at all.

Take it you've never played any GTA game? Some of the collectibles they have are just....annoying. For example, killing 200 pigeons in GTA 4, I'm all for collectibles but fuck that.

I tried GTA IV, but just couldn't get into it. I didn't get any achievements either so I just wiped all evidence that I had ever played it. I definitely think there are better collectibles than others, but if there's an achievement that comes with collecting them, I'll do it. Even 200 useless pigeons. However, I won't deny that those do sound rather obnoxious.

I'm trying to think of a business proposition for Bristol-Myers Squibb that gives them a viable strategy going forward since their most recent product went off patent, and it's impossible. The whole business structure of pharmaceutical companies is absurd and practically impossible to think of a solution without completely reinventing their current strategies, making this project a lot more difficult then it really should be.

200 pigeons is nothing compared to the 1400 or so free play targets you have to destroy in The Saboteur to get the completion. But unlike the GTA pigeons and most other collectables, every single one is marked on the map so you don't have to run around searching or use a guide.

In all seriousness, my Dad was a pharmaceutical lawyer, so I sympathize.

I apologize if I sound ignorant for suggesting this, but some phones you really have to hold it stone cold still when you take a photo. I've got an older Nokia that suits me just fine with 8MP, and I don't have this problem, but I was on a date recently where the girl wanted me to take photos of her with her cell (hey I'm a director so we had a 'lil photoshoot), and all the images were coming out blurry as shit. She said I had to hold it still, and it made me look like an idiot that I really had to almost hold that thing against a wall, for the image to turn out clear. And still keep it still for a few seconds after pushing the shutter. Technology...
