Solution 1: You have gained the power of the Energy Shield - since you are almost absolutely powerful now, you shall choose to continue to collect items. There will be also a special second reward for collecting your 32nd Mark Of The Gods - the Treasure Map has been unlocked - remaining Money Vases will be revealed on the Maps. You want the Doubloons that are contained in those, as you require to alot 1000000 Doubloons for the Millionaire Achievement. You may accumulate about 750000 Doubloons once you have collected every item in the world. There is no reward for collecting all 208 Money Vases. After that you shall concentrate on the Arcade Chapters to aim for the World Records! I will let you people know if the collected Doubloons there will be added towards the corresponding Achievement progression, or not - as soon as it has been figured out!
Solution 2: Started to replay its Story - playing the Story anew does not help to continue to collect items - everything would be blank. Fortunately, Outland is extremely great - so replaying it is definitely worthwhile and enjoyable - but it is not required to continue to collect items - you can always backtrack from complex to complex - yet this may be uneasy if you seek to find a path to some of a location you have in your mind. Because of this, and when you intend to use a guide to find all Mark Of The Gods, but you have already played Outland too far in order to find yourself confident when using a guide to find all Mark Of The Gods, you can decide to start its Story anew. Perhaps Achievement progression for collecting 1000000 Doubloons to claim the Millionaire Achievement will be continued while doing so. But, it is currently not known - Solution update is intended as soon as possible, in order to clarify it. Help with information about other people's findings. Please contribute your knowledge. Thank you!
Hint 1: You know if you have bought a specific Upgrade - the icon of its Upgrade Shrine on Map became semitransparent, if positive. Get Upgrades to extend consumed Ability use and increase chance of survival.
Hint 2: Some Open Doors are falsely shown as Closed Doors by its Map icons. It may be not true to be locked - get close to location and it would correct information shown on Map, if positive. Occurrence only during backtracking.
Additional Information 1: There are eight Health Upgrades, and seven Energy Upgrades to purchase.
Additional Information 2: Did you knew, that in Outland, you can play every Mode from Single Player also in Online Cooperative? It is awesome!
Exploration tracking: Yet you can teleport to most of the areas, but this will not help you ultimately to collect every item since these areas have no Teleports, and can only be accessed through Level Transitions:
[_] Origin: The Story Begins
[_] Origin: Rites Of Passage
[_] Jungle: Jungle Lowlands
[_] Jungle: Cursed Forest
[_] Underworld: Lost Passageways
[_] Underworld: The Buried Empire
[_] City: The City Walls
[_] City: The Ministry
[_] City: The Flower Gardens
[_] Sky: The Proving Grounds
[_] Sky: The Haunted Hills
[_] Sky: The Mistshrouded Forest
[_] Eternity: At The Shores Of Time
[_] Eternity: Tower Of Eternity
Here's a nice, comprehensive and well organized guide I used to find the marks. It's a PS3 guide, but it works for the 360.

There are 42 Marks of the Gods in Outland. Fortunately, each area's map will tell you how many remain. None of them are missable but keep in mind that not every area has a teleporter so you will have to walk. Can only be done in single player. Here is a guide with maps.
The Marks of the Gods are golden helmets scattered all over the Zones. You will unlock various content as you collect them: pieces of concept art and also some extra abilities.
You can check an area map to see if there any Mark of the Gods in it (press and look at the bottom left corner). Go to the 'Player Statistics' menu (, then ) if you want to see how many Marks of the Gods you have collected overall.
You will find a Marks of the Gods guide in this thread.
