Hi all,

Thought you might be interestede in this thread from another site. (The site itself is much more focused on the Emu scene than 'real playing' as here, but still some great stuff on there!

New machine pictures!

Cheers!

:)

Manic muncher looks class :D

And the others look completely uninspiring.

Yeah manic muncher looks good, and hopefully we'll see something different from the 'new extreme'.

And thats a Cashback I spy next to it eh! They might have passed the test but I don't think they'll be around for long until a rechip!

Streak Freak looks very unimaginative. You'd have thought there'd be something remotely different between it and Bling Bling, but in reality they even look the same.

The Extremes are getting rather tedious now too, there's barely a single variation on the same theme.

Nice one Matt V for posting the link!

how sexy would it be to have all of them in a little room like that...is that an arcade or what?

holy moley display is quite nice...

Heh - no probs! :)

Holey Moley looks like Top Giza but with the addition of the super / mega spin 'wheel'.

Red are being pretty clever at the moment, releasing clones of there slightly older machines but with the addition of this spin feature...

Will say that the Streak Freak one doesn't look that inspiring though... :(

They are all in a distributors warehouse ssgtsnelly. The person who takes the pics is a engineer for that company.

They all look good, especially Manic Muncher!

pity the gameplay on that manic muncher is probably going to be the same as doctors and nurses ... ie. predictable progression.. myabe not I suppose..

those reds are indeed loads of copies, about time they thought of something new apart from the usual circle of features, 1-99 nudges and same old cash trail, gets a bit dull... at least the mega spins speeds up playing them out I suppose...

I mean look at BFM they do make loads of clones of the same machine, but at least they change the superboard into a different concept.... not that it changes the gameplay but at least they've put some thought into it

Is it just me, or does the top of the nudge trail on 'Holy Moley' look a bit 'wrong'? LOL

Pulsation looks a bit like a Legal Tender clone to me.

As well as being nigh on impossible to get off the reels, getting LOSE or ROLL EVEN (always resulting in a LOSE) on every '?' when you do get on the board, etc.

nice to see extreme coming up with something different for a change, tho they still slipped that "happy campers" in which looks a bit DnN's if u ask me.

Reds...pah why more clones? same things just different graphics is just poor. no wonder they're churning 3 out, not a lot of thought needed for it.

saw a "happy campers" today. im just gonna say....

"usual extreme shite"

Reel setups work but predictably keying doesn't. Also noticed that they've chipped "selector" so it times out A LOT quicker than normal.also has a top which doesntt seem keen on going over £25 and a JPfor me that repeated to £50.

Cost £40 to force from full !

to clarify:

Happy Campers – Extreme (bling & queen hybrid....?)

Manic Muncher – Extreme (looks like a nice NEW design…!)

Butch Cassidy & Sundance Quid – BFG (reglass of Dough Ho Ho)

Holey Moley – Red Gaming (reglass of jackpot gems)

Streak Freak – Red Gaming (reglass of bling bling)

Monte Carlo Club – Reflex (copy of casino crazy club?)
