video game slots

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Wired has an article about Cyberview Technology's new concept to bring young people back to the slot machines, turn them into video games.

"...gamblers would buy a block of play time, not a single spin of the wheel. As the seconds tick by, a counter at the top of the screen shows a steadily increasing wager. Whenever you blast something, it triggers the same random-number generator that's at the heart of any digital slot machine. In other words, Cyberview has pulled an arcade skin over a one-armed bandit, and each explosion is a pull of the arm."
