All the companies involved (fatspanner, paragon, games media and gamestec) are no longer interested in SWP - moving there focus to digital AWP. So I doubt there will be too many new SWPs released this year. Plus anything released would have to be absolutely stunning to perform well in a market that ...

The SWP industry is dead. The last HRMC regulations, the decline in the pub trade and the very poor quality of games and payouts has killed it.

RV770 ATI graphics card either 256 or 512 mb ram

but wtf would I know, I'm just another spaz on a forum.

so will this mean...

SWP's will be able to offer prizes of up to £70?
SWP's will be able to be themed on gambling games Poker, Roulette and Bingo?
No rules on the amount of "elements of skill" to win an SWP game?

I need to see the best 3D game ever produced!

The twenty quid drop just isn't as exciting though.

the new regs version should really be - The thirty five pence drop.

Quest gamings update of their Skill Casino Games.

A lot of work went in to make Stop the clock not look anything like Roulette.

Almost as lame as Hook the skill ball Duck.

Yay the new regs!

Isn't Popcorn just a graphical update of skill ball bingo?

Therefor with the new HMR&C rulings still going to be illegal?

Then why did you say anything?
