@corneliab, I've only just noticed the face of Captain Vidya in that Robotnik sprite in your sig, and now I can't unsee. Damn you!

Also interesting to see the Totems return. I had a hunch that they would.

It's the "face in the wall" enemy from Marble Garden.

The totem guys seem to be underwater-only, spewing out direction-shifting currents or something. The Kolibri-looking badnik jumps out of the water a la Marble Garden Grasshopper style (he may shoot out lasers or something). That's what I got out of the screenshots anyway.

While the level designs and everything's looking nice, I wish they'd find more creative use of the homing attack than friggin' Bubbles chains. Hell even using a different badnik would be slightly less lazy.

I've seen it above ground acting the normal way.

Too lazy to fish through all the footage to find it though.

I've just watched that OXM video on the front page and Ken says that the throwback level is still to come. I really thought that Sylvania Castle was the throwback level with it's rehashed art from Aquatic Ruin and Marble Garden but this is not the case. The level is going to be from one of the original 16 bit games and apparently the story makes for that zone to come back.

So guys which one do you think will come back? by the way it's going to be from the original trilogy so no zone from Sonic CD is going to make an appearance.

[Jaseman]

Green Hill Zone, of course. Sega really needs to give that one so more love. :v

[synchronizer]

Sonic CD R2.

On a serious note, it makes sense for something from Sonic CD to be remade. After-all, SEGA's marketing strategy s to link the stories of Sonic CD and Sonic 4: Episode 2 together.

It's probably Sky Chase, now that Tails is in the game...

And they'll probably add some awful gimmick like turning it into an arsed up and dull version of the Rayman Origins shooter levels.

It's going to be Death Egg Zone from Sonic 2. Or possibly Death Egg Zone from Sonic 3.

Didn't Sonic go to the DEZ for Egg Station?

It could be a submerged Death Egg maybe. Or just another out and out rehash like Episode 1... just because.

Considering the plot of this game is "Eggman is rebuilding the Death Egg around Little Planet" I'd find it very hard to believe that the game doesn't end there. Thus, the final zone is Death Egg or the zone before the final zone is Death Egg.

I mean Egg Station Zone in episode 1, it's in space, so it must be on the Death Egg.
