Only Time Attacks Tracked for Now
TSSZ News has learned the iOS App Store very quietly made available an updated copy of Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode I late Thursday evening with Game Center support.
Version 1.1 adds support, but only time attack is supported. But each act has a leaderboard. It appears this is the only update to the iOS edition, and it’s a free one for those who already have the game.

I hope it will upload my current times… Took me ages to get 0’35″32 on SHZ1 with Sonic.
It also has achievements too.
Sadly, we won’t be seeing additional leaderboards for some time if ever. Apple is currently limiting all game developers to 25 leaderboards per game on Game Center, and this update has 25 different leaderboards. Unless Apple brings the limit up, we won’t be seeing score attack leaderboards. As for achievements, they are the same as on 360/PS3 and only the game actvity that you have done since the update counts towards them. So if you already beat the very hard final boss, you will have to beat it again to get the game complete achivement.
Don’t worry SEGA, your only months late again.
@Brad: Pretty sure I remember someone at SOA saying they submitted the update sometime around Sonic 4′s release, and that it was up to Apple to get the update approved and out.
