Hello,
I have won this machine from eBay:
http://www.zenegep.com/kepek/Videostar.jpg
Its called Video Star and its made by Barcrest, it has 4 touch screen games (2 slots, bingo and poker), I cant really find much info on it, anyone played it?
It should come in around a week.
Thank!
I bought this machine: Video Star by Barcrest, anyone played
this game should be on it, a £25 version of it though

look at that url and find the texas tea game,
the machine has two different versions, but as you mentioned one poker one bingo and two fruities i think its the one i used to play regualry
it has money martians on it
joker poker
a keno bingo
and texas tea
the bingo game was quite good, try picking 3 numbers and put £30 on auto play..
texas tea was good for bonus's, and martians was just funny to watch
look for the marked cards on joker poker...
you could normally get a few decent wins from the two fruitys, then rip a few £5ers from the bingo, then get a pot or two from the poker.... maybe once every couple of weeks...
but if youre having this in your house, it might get a bit boring as the fruities are just press press press, no holds of nudges etc.. just watch it play....

Thanks a lot,
The games you mentioned are what it has on, I know that much because the seller stated the names of the games, although they did say it had a slot called "Little green men" on, is this what you meant by "Money Martians?".
I also have found out it has a touch screen and note acceptor, I had played the Texas tea game through the virgin casino site but thanks for taking the time to find a link.
A question I do have though is does the machine let you pick what game you want to play or pick one randomly, the reason I asked is because I found this:
"Videostar uses a flexible random game format featuring four different games which can be configured into five different variants a multi-game formal or four individual games. Videostar's random games are simple to understand and can be played using the conventional buttons or new touchscreen technology."
I'm not quite sure what it means by this whole "random game" thing, from a guess it means the operator can choose if the games appear randomly or the player can select?
Did you get the select when you played?
And finally did the poker come across random, although I know its not random if it appeared it I think it would improve the game.
Thanks again, Adam
yes thats the game, little green men, sorry i got the name confused
the machine has a main options screen where you see a button for each of the four games, you select which one you want to play..
as for the legal style writing that you wrote.. i havent got a clue!
i *think* it means there are different settings for each game,
when i played it, it did seem to play in a way that there was one payout cycle on it, all four games took each others incoming and outgoing money to payout ratio and shared them, part of that phrase seems to be hinting that you can set the machine to pay out seperately for each game, so 4 payout cycles, one for each game, and each depending how much has been staked on each game not the overall machine?
the poker is not random, and doesnt seem very random either...
you get a poker hand then you have a series of hi lo gambles to beat,
you can either collect the win from the hand, or gamble if you think you can guess if the next card is higher or lower...
you arent playing against anyone in the hands, you are just trying to get ANY poker hand, jokers are wild so you have a slight advantage...
straght flushes four and five of a kind and royal flushes will be delt to you as you lose more and more money the hands will get better... as long as you dont accept any of the wins offered you will see less and less likely combinations of cards coming out...
an hour of playing and youll know exactly what i mean,
when you are on the hi lo gamble part... try going higher than a jack and lower than a four a couple of times..
have fun with it when you get it... its a very addictive machine to play
