Sonic The Hedgehog 2 Achievement guide XxB3asti3xX
This is my first guide I have written so any advice for improvements on this or future guides would be greatly appreciated.
This game is a very easy 12 achievements for 200 points that can be obtained in about 2-3 hours. The best thing to remember is to use the save feature frequently. You can save at any time in the game by simply pausing so that, should you mess up, all that needs to be done is exit without saving and reload the save. One other word of advice is in single player make sure when you start a new game that it is set to Sonic only. If Tails tries to follow you he will do nothing but cause problems.
Emerald Hill - 5gs
You cleared the Emerald Hill Zone 1.
See achievement Conquering Time.
Fast Emerald 15gs
You beat Emerald Hill Zone 1 in under 35 seconds in single-player or co-op mode.
See achievement Conquering Time.
Fast Chemical 20gs
You beat Chemical Plant Zone 1 in under 45 seconds.

See achievement Conquering Time.
Conquering Time 10gs
You beat the game in under an hour.
All of the above achievements can be done in the first play through just remember to save at the beginning of each level and if you do not have a fast time reload and try again. It shouldnt take more than one or two tries on even some of the more difficult levels. Do not worry about jumping through any of the star rings at the checkpoints as this will add time to your goal of less than one hour. Also remember to reload if you die as the time will still be added to your total.
Chaos Emerald 10gs
You got one Chaos Emerald.
See achievement Chaos Master.
Chaos Master 40gs
You got all the Chaos Emeralds.
To get Chaos Emeralds you must get 50 rings and then find a checkpoint. When you go through the checkpoint as long as you have enough rings a circle will begin growing around the top of it jump through this to start the bonus stage. Remember to save as soon as you enter the stage. After passing the three sections you will be awarded a Chaos Emerald. There are seven in all so after getting the first one just continue saving and progressing through the checkpoints. This is by far the most difficult achievement in the game so concentrate on memorizing the ring patterns and if necessary save more frequently. Make sure to save immediately after getting the last Chaos Emerald for the Super Sonic and Extended Super achievements.
Super Sonic 20gs
You became Super Sonic.
See achievement Extended Super.
Extended Super 20gs
You stayed in Super Sonic mode for one minute.
After you have the last Chaos Emerald start collecting a bunch of rings, then when you have at least 60 jump in the air and press A to turn into Super Sonic. Each ring equals one second of time as Super Sonic so as long as you have 60 rings both achievements will be unlocked.
All Multiplayer 5gs
You played all four multiplayer zones.
This achievement can be unlocked using a second controller or by playing online. Simply start a game on each of the four areas. It does not matter if you finish it or not as soon as the game starts you can quit and move to the next one.
Xbox Live Racer 10gs
You won 10 versus zones on Xbox Live.
For this one you will need to find someone to boost with. The easiest way is to set up a player match go to emerald hill zone and have one player repeatedly kill themselves until the game ends. After dying three times the other player will get a win which should have taken about 45 seconds. Start a new game, repeat ten times , and your finished.
