Reading some news stories about what different games will be shown at G2e this year. From various articles, just a few of the games they mention, I'm quoting from the articles, these words are not mine.
Some Scientific Games (Bally technologies and WMS:
I'm excited to hear that it sounds like they are doing something new with CLUE.
"Our customers always get excited about our vast library of licensed brands, and this year at G2E we’re highlighting 10 brands, including TETRIS™, SPIDER-MAN™, THE GODFATHER®, JOHNNY CASH®, THE BACHELOR™, and NATIONAL LAMPOON’S VACATION™-themed games…plus a few that we will not unveil until the show. We will also demonstrate new systems-based bonusing games featuring MONOPOLY, CLUE, and YAHTZEE brands, designed to provide second-ways-to-win and generate tremendous floorwide excitement. "
Among games being brought forward from initial preview at last year’s show are two hilarious games based on the legendary comedy Monty Python and the Holy Grail and Space Invaders, on the Blade S32 cabinet, with a skill bonus based on the famous arcade game.
National Lampoon’s Vacation
Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy, from popular 2004 comedy film starring Will Ferrell
The Bachelor, a wide-area progressive with a mystery bonus featuring clips from the popular dating reality show.
Cash, featuring the music of country legend Johnny Cash, will be a major release on the Blade Stepper with Mechanical Wheel.
Footage and audio of all of Cash’s most famous songs are woven into bonuses
Some Aristocrat games:
Slot based on My Cousin Vinny
on the Arc Double is The Big Lebowski, the 1998 comedy starring Jeff Bridges as Jeffrey “The Dude”
Other big branded games include Sharknado, based on the TV disaster film series about sharks set loose across flooded streets in Los Angeles; Downton Abby, based on the British period TV hit (previewed last year but refined and ready to release); and Tim McGraw, placing the songs and performances of the country star up on the Arc Double.
Some Konami:
Dragon Fury, which takes full advantage of the 43-inch portrait display with an expanding reel feature that takes the reels up to eight rows high, for spins on a 120-line reel grid. The base reel format is a 7-8-8-8-7 setup (seven symbols on the outer two rows; eight symbols on the middle rows), in a 120-line game. The number of high-paying dragon symbols increases during free games.
Pharaoh’s Fury applies the concept to an Egyptian theme, featuring extra wild symbols in the free-game feature.
Titan 360 continues to carry broad popularity, even launching its next new theme: Dragon’s Orb Jackpots. In the bonus of the new game, a dragon spins an orb, which ends up being a silver bar ball or a gold bar ball, which goes into one of the prize holes.
In the same spirit as Titan 360, Konami is introducing another multi-station development called Crystal Cyclone that uses a mystery trigger to enact a bonus game on a center unit device shared by all the players. Several balls can be released from the stacker device at once, so several players can participate in the bonus game at the same time.
Another new multi-station game coming to G2E is Fortune Cup, a multi-station horse-racing game on a central miniature track that incorporates both the amusement-game and video-game skills of the parent company.
Walther notes that much attention was given to detail in creating the arcade-style track. “Each horse is fully articulated—legs, rider—and they move around the track,” Walther says. “These horses can move in either direction, so we’ll be able to change up the way the races are run. And they move around the field. We can do different-sized races.
SOME IGT GAMES:
Slot on the Goonies
New Ellen DeGeneres game
How to Marry a Millionaire Starring Marilyn Monroe, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes Starring Marilyn Monroe, and a new version of the Megabucks wide-area progressive.
Jurassic World 3D
game themed around beloved comic TV star Betty White
new version of Zuma 3D
