IT'S THE ZOAH Sonic Chronicles Competition Winner Announced

LONDON (18th March, 2008) - SEGA Europe Ltd. today confirmed that the recent competition, A Race To Name, where Sonic The Hedgehog fans could vote upon names for a new race selected by key Sonic fansites, and European gaming websites, finally has a winner. After thousands of votes were cast, it became clear that it was going to be a closely fought race between The Zoah, The Gravitus and The Dusk. Fans were hastily casting votes right up until the last minute but in the end only a handful of votes separated the contenders, and like all competitions it could only have one winner with The Zoah prevailing as the fan-favourite.

Congratulations to www.seganerds.com who originally suggested The Zoah which will now be included in the forthcoming, hotly tipped, Sonic Chronicles : The Dark Brotherhood™ for the Nintendo DS™ system. The Zoah will be featured as a new enemy race for Sonic The Hedgehog to pit his wits against in 2008.
