Another solid gold effort, John Steed - thanks for taking the time and trouble to put such a balanced and carefully considered post together - I hope that the members here will give it the additional value it deserves by voting in the poll and by adding their own opinions and experiences - good and bad.

Another Steed essay![]()

I think largely the "other 3" are playing catchup to MG. Each have their plus points that are better than MG but as an overall experience, there is only one for me right now. I like the Playtech GUI; i like Cryptos instant withdrawals as KK points out, i used to like Crypto's DB Video Poker til they downgraded the paytable.
Maybe things will be different in a couple of years.![]()
Love kimchee myself, especially with bulgogi, or as a fried rice... or a soup...Originally Posted by johnsteed
Back to the subject - online casino software has come a long way in the last 5 years... when we still had HTML and Java casinos in abundance... but Microgaming continues to run away from the pack - even if Playtech and Wagerlogic have improved in leaps and bounds. Haven't played an RTG for a while so can't comment on the newer slots, but a couple of years ago I thought they weren't bad either.
Regarding Rock Paper Scissors... some 15 years ago I used to play video strip rock paper and scissors... no kiddingThe problem was, that game was definitely rigged, you could never get past getting the top off
Don't know if I'd play it for money, but it's probably better odds than most of the other games out there unless it too is rigged...
By the way, I should also point out that Cryptologic is an ecash service provider. The casino software manufacturer is Wagerlogic - yeah, I know it's more or less the same thing, but they have distinctly separated these operations for some time now, I think it's around 4 years...

PlayTech's older slots (the concensus is that they blow and are incredibly boring), but the one's that were introduced recently are exceptionally good. From 5 Reel/20 line slots "A Night Out", "Desert Treasure", to "Dr. Lovemore" (has anyone aside from the Casinomeister played this great game???).![]()

My vote goes to Cryptologic, which is much better than the rest for the following reasons:
1. Nearly all (if not all) Crypto's offer 100% monthly bonus (or equivalent).
2. They allow virtually all games to be played in WR.
3. The game logs leave you in no doubt of how much you've wagered on what - incredibly easy to see if you've met WR.
4. No reverse withdrawal facility (which does not matter to me - but does to many others), and money always hits Neteller within 48hrs.
5. Innovative games - like Bejeweled & Marvel slots.
6. The best muli-player games.
Thank you for the list KK!More importantly, your reasons as to why you think Waterlogic/Cryptologic are the best. Seeing how you're one of the players (and Macgyver being the other) who generally states that you consistently win, I'd have to think that Cryptologic/Waterlogic might be underrated by many people. Actually, looking at the poll, I'm surprised to see (as of right now) that it's almost neck-and-neck with RTG!!! I'm not surprised that PlayTech hasn't received any votes, but I'm VERY surprised that RTG already has 4!!! But, I'm sure with good reason.
I fancy your 3rd reason as to why you prefer Crypto/Waterlogic.

Love kimchee myself, especially with bulgogi, or as a fried rice... or a soup...
All jokes aside, I'm with you on my "love" for Kimchee. And yes, with bulgogi (Korea's answer to Kobe beef I suppose), and certainly mixed-in with fried rice. At first glance, I don't think Westerners are going to take to it. And I've always been a very ordinary "meat & potatoes" only kind of a guy. Because I hate eating cooked fish (the raw stuff is fine, but truly is more of a Japanese phenomena), all that was left to eat with my rice was the Kimchee. Got used to it quickly, and my refrigerator is loaded with the stuff (thank you student's mothers). Actually, if guests come over and my fridge isn't stocked with Kimchee, I think they'd (potential "mole") contact to the local authorities and put me away in the slammer.

Hmmm, methinks that the Korean food is readily available all over Asia (these days)? Is that a correct assumption Spearmaster?

They have the coin-op/token version out here in Korea (I'm thinking this may be the exact same one that you're talking about), and it's totally rigged. It pays out only after it's chewed-up so many credits/tokens. One of my students cleans-up on it, because he waits for a certain amount of credits to go through, and then he plays it... cha-ching!!! My student has a large box full of the tokens he's won, estimated price would be about "100,000" won (roughly $100 USD), but (and here's the best part) he can't redeem those tokens for cash (not even for reduced credit) at any of the toy shop/stationary stores that HAVE the game. Every time he asks the person working behind the counter, they yell at him to get out of their shop. What's the point?! Perhaps these owners secretly belong to the cult known as "G-Fed"...

Oops, you're quite right.Thanks for the heads-up Spearmaster.

Yes, I'd love to read about the details as to why people have their preferences towards a specific software provider. The poll is one thing, reading about it in detail is more significant. Thank you Jetset.
Simmo!

The instant withdrawals is a great "plus" for Crypto's.

Or a good Fish & Chips in the UK.
Don't know that I would equate bulgogi with Kobe beef... bulgogi runs the gamut from horrible like cardboard to spectacular, but there ain't anything in this world that comes close to Kobe beef (and I'm a beef lover, I'd kill for good USDA Prime as well).
Honestly, I have to say that Korean food is probably almost as common as Japanese food in most parts of Asia. But not quite as many places, which is why they generally cost a lot more for dinner. Kimchee is stocked in most supermarket shelves, which should give you some idea... not many varieties (only the standard one) but still...Hmmm, methinks that the Korean food is readily available all over Asia (these days)?

Hahaha, I should have been more clear about that statement.Korean's answer to Kobe beef, not necessarily (and not by a long-shot) Kobe beef's equal. I really like bulgogi, but no way does it match Kobe beef. I'm in complete agreement with you there. Actuallly, the "sum-gyup-sol" (fried pork) is their best "meat".
I was never really a pork fan back home, but the pork is much better than the beef out here. It's Korean tradition (and good business sense) to have "sum-gyup-sol" and a bottle of "So-Ju" (Korea's answer to Saki) for dinner and get-togethers.
