Defeat all bosses as Super Sonic.

Either they scrapped that boss act crap or getting 50 rings in a boss level is now possible. Either way THANK GOD.

Also the Sonic signpost looks much less derp then the signpost in Ep 1, at least it does from what I can tell from the achievement icon. I'm surprised they didn't throw Tails on the signpost seeing as how you always play together.

So... Sky fortress... Do you think the rehash zone is Wing Fortress?

Maybe a hybrid of Wing Fortress and Flying Battery Zone. That would be kind of cool.

Also, I love red rings too. They are my favorite of the 'New Classic' ideals that Generations introduced, and I'm glad they're back again for Sonic 4.

What do you mean? They were in Colors first.

Woops, guess you're right. I mean, they were introduced to the world of Classic Sonic in Generations. In Colours they weren't really much of a huge thing, although they did unlock Super Sonic, which was good.

Also, speaking of Super Sonic - sounds great! Super Sonic in boss levels, eh?

ALSO also - I don't think it will be a rehash zone, simply because Ken said (I know, his word isn't hugely trustable, but I think this is something that's close enough) there's only one, and it's Sylvanian Castle/Aquatic Ruin zone.

Play as Tails 50 times.

Wha-HUH?

Who do you think you play as in co-op?

Well, yeah, it is possible the achievement really boils down to having a human player play as Tails 50 times instead of a CPU player. That's still a rather strange achievement to have. It might as well say "Achievement Unlocked: You Have Friends".

- possibly no more boss acts ----> Yeah!!
- red rings to collect ----> Yeah!! (How can people complain about those seriously? I loved exploring each act in Sonic 3&K to find those giant rings and I missed something like that)
- Tails achievement ----> Quite curious
- Sky Fortress revealed ----> Was expecting a more original level theme but nevermind, that'll do.

Clear all stages without returning to the World Map.

Are you telling me that the whole "Press Y to advance to the next Act/Zone" bullshit is back?! God, I friggin hated that in Episode I!

Also, out of curiosity, now that the Achievements are out, does anybody think that the game is already up on PartnerNET? If it is, here's hoping we don't get any crazy leaks like with Episode I.

Why just in case we rip it to shit and Sega ends up pushing back the release date because they screwed up again.

Remember folks, sky fortress could refer to the Death Egg Planet.

Oh god not the "Press Y to continue" complaints again. Yes it sucks but is it that hard to press Y

At least, we don't have any stupid trophy like "Untouchable", "Contender" or "Enemy Hunter" anymore...

I know this is a theory but I thought I would just say it anyway. Considering we have the special stages for the chaos emeralds, what if getting all the red rings unlocks classic skins for the characters

While I would prefer that be an option from the beginning, I'll take it either way.

You mean because everyone said it was shit? It's obviously not going to happen.

Hmm, so the description on SEGA's page says this game has 18 total stages, is it possible that the secret final zone has multiple acts? 4 zones with 4 acts (Including boss acts) is 16, then the final one would be 17 if it's a single act, maybe there are two acts this time, or a Super Sonic final battle? That'd be a nice change of pace from Episode I's terrible boss.

Considering there is an Achievement for beating the final boss after collecting all of the Red Rings, I'm going to go ahead and wager that doing so is our ticket to the Sneak Peak towards Episode III if there is one.
