Sonic Turns 18, Sega Hands Out Birthday Loot
It's Sega [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonic_the_Hedgehog_(video_game)] is giving away a pile of sweet Sonic loot on Twitter and Facebook.
The very first Sonic the Hedgehog game was released for the Sega Genesis [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sega_Genesis] on this day all the way back in 1991 and to mark his passage into manhood, Sega is giving away prize packs of Sonic merchandise like a Summer of Sonic t-shirt, a Sonic 3 code for the Xbox 360 Marketplace, a Sonic X Kids Pack, Sonic stationery pack and much more.
Entering is simple: On Twitter, keep your eyes on "sonicgames" [http://twitter.com/sonicgames] and tweet a reply with the unique code phrase for each prize package, which will be given out over the course of the day. To help keep things fair, a preselected response number will "often" be chosen as a winner - for instance, the 15th reply gets the prize.
On Facebook, simply become a Sonic fan at www.facebook.com/sonic [http://www.facebook.com/sonic] and then watch for prize pack announcements, which will be accompanied by a topic of the the judge's choice; winners will be selected from the best wall posts and comments on each topic.
A full list of prizes and contest rules can be found at the Sonic City Blognik [http://blogs.sega.com/sonic/2009/06/22/sonic-citys-sonic-birthday-giveaway-tuesday-june-23rd-2009/] but since the action is already underway, I suggest you get on with it. Free stuff awaits!
