I just want to paste here this very nice guide (not mine). Finally it is complete guide with all Collectibles for System Redux Version!
But be careful! You have to collect nanocards exactly in the same order as it video shows. Some next cards can be "bugged". As comment from user M3PTIRAH says:
"WARNING! Collect everything especially nanocards EXACTLY the same order as in this video, if you come across for whatever reason nanocard on your own, just dont pick it up. I had to restart 2 times. For some reason if you pick up earlier card in different order than in this video, it bugs out and later game couple of cards wont spawn for whatever reason. Its really easy to mess up, it might be some other reason. But as soon as I followed collectibles exact same order as in this video, I had no problem. Platinum is mine now!"

You need to listen to 4 recordings. The first is in the toilet between 109 and 110 ropeway (press flush and then listen to the recording), the second is on one of the stairs on the 3rd floor in a tangle of wires, the third is in the basement room 020. The last recording is closer to the end of the game, the tape recorder will be on the table when the detective is pass through the quarantine zone.
