BIG ONLINE BINGO NEWS FROM GTECH
29 January 2010
Online gambling software provider plans bingo
and casino upgrades and new products
The GTech G2 group, which is the parent company of St
Minver, Boss Media, Dynamite Idea and Finsoft, has
announced several product developments that it intends
to showcase at the upcoming IGE-ICEi show.
The
group plans to release details on a major casino
software update featuring new side games and
demonstrating its new Live Hosted Bingo.
Following the successful migration earlier this month of
its UK bingo licensees to a new G2 Bingo product, the
provider will unveil what it boasts is one of the most
innovative and exciting new features to hit online bingo
- live streamed chat hosts. Demonstrations of this
highly interactive new feature will be keenly watched by
rivals and show visitors alike.
“The way that we
have incorporated the live video streaming into the game
window, and the way our hosts will focus on ‘presenting’
rather than calling numbers, we believe makes this
feature unique and will make players engage more with
the product,” said Alison Digges, who heads up group
bingo operations for GTech G2. “At IGE, we’ll be giving
a sneak preview of the video streaming that will go live
with our UK customers shortly, with the view to expand
this across all our bingo customers, she said.”
In the casino update, G2 will show off new games
developed in-house by its Game Studio, and additional
content from other leading games developers, especially
licensed/branded content.
Licensees like Virgin
Casino and Gala Coral have been quick to offer
well-known games like the Bar X Magic 7 which was
developed by the Dynamite Idea group at G2. This and the
other new instant-win side games included in the group's
updated casino games portfolio are already popular with
operators.
“Our approach is to combine the best
of our home grown creativity with the best of the open
market, said Dominic Mansour, head of G2's Casino and
Games division. “Our new slot machines were developed
in-house, but Virtual Derby, our new virtual horse
racing game that incorporates animated video clips, is
an example of what an aggregator we’ve become. It was
developed by Solid Icon and, thanks to our back end
systems, seamlessly integrated into our games
portfolio.”
On the sportsbetting front, G2 plans
to display the latest upgrades to its Margin Maker
platform, including its Pools Engine, which allows
operators to create, maintain and manage pool betting,
and the Games Room Bonus Engine, which enables them to
reward individual side and instant game players with
free funds, loyalty points or prizes.
