Super Sonic will be playable in Sonic The Hedgehog 4: Episode 1.
The giveaway comes via the game's achievements, which lists one of them as 'Golden Flash - Clear all Acts as Super Sonic'.
That's pretty cut and dry then. The old school method of turning into Super Sonic was collecting all the Chaos Emeralds and jumping (Sonic The Hedgehog 2) or jumping then pressing jump again while in the air (the others). We reckon Sega will use one of those methods to keep Sonic The Hedgehog 4 feeling as retro as possible, but we'll just have to wait and see.
Super Sonic can only be achieved by collecting all the emeralds, but if the whole game is to be completed with Super Sonic I'm guessing there is a player selection not so unlike the one seen within Sonic 3 where the levels can be re-played making the task of collecting all the emeralds a doddle.
Finally, the old method of turning Super Sonic is back. I didn't like how the games since Dreamcast only had him playable at the end of the game in a boss fight.
Because the emeralds were only collected through the cut scenes and not earnt like in the original games. Super Sonic though Sonic Adventure would have probably been too fast for the stages with quick platform jumping, Super Sonic is only good for speed and invincibility where needed on the original games.
Damn skippy! That's right a proper Super Sonic is back baby! Just picked up all the Sonic games from the XLBA (just realized that the the Knuckles Lock-on technology is properly emulated, very late of me), and hoping that this game is also for the PSP. I am going to lock myself in a room and beat the hell out this game once it is released.
I've got a horrible feeling Sega's not gonna give it the 90's Sonic's difficulty levels and ruin it by making so a 2 year old can get through on first try.
