New games keep life spicy for those who like to play the online casinos. Sure gamblers have their steadfast favorites but we all like to try something new, and for gamblers, it is no different. Playing online makes it much easier to try the new offerings, however. For one thing, the new games come just about every month if playing at a Microgaming software powered casino compared to perhaps once a year at land based casinos.
In fact, I don't recall the last time I saw a new slot machine in the three reel version at area casinos although they must by now be feeling the pressure to start bringing in new machines considering the on line competition continues to roll out new games at a rate of about three a month. Online casinos powered by Microgaming now have as many as three hundred and fifty games. It is unlikely you could find any casino in Las Vegas or Atlantic City which can boast they have over three hundred and fifty separately individual games of chance to offer their customers.
Slot machines
Many of those games are slot machines of course and they have so many different means of getting money back to the players that it would take an entire article just to list all of them but suffice to say that there is probably a slot machine with features to fit almost any taste that favors playing the one armed bandits. This is not to say however that the online games are limited in other areas because that would be a false statement. One online casino powered by Microgaming has fifty versions of blackjack, a number no land casino ever dreamed of being able to offer.
The new games also include new versions of the old favorite table and poker games as well as slot machines. Just recently in June of 2008, Microgaming released yet another version of Roulette which is based on the European rules but has improved graphics and sounds that include the sound of the crowd as the ball is put into play, the metallic sound of the ball hitting the wheel and many other small details that had been until now overlooked.
Also just recently released is a game that is an example of a trend that is increasing in popularity where an old favorite slot game is updated to include all the new gadgets and gizmos that have since been invented to increase the attractiveness of slot gaming. This game is fashioned after the original Big Kahuna video slot game, and this one includes a bonus screen which is actually like a slot machine inside a slot machine.
Different slot machines
Online casinos offer three different ways for players to get on their sites. With some online casinos, players can only participate if they download the software. While this might take some time on the front end, the results are worth the wait. With downloaded programs, the effects, sound, and speed of the game are usually obvious. Other sites are web based online casinos. With no software to download, these casinos let players participate by using browser plugins such as Flash or Java. However, players must have ample bandwidth to participate. More recently, many online casinos have started offering live gaming. This is for players who enjoy the atmosphere of a real land based casino. With live gaming, players are dealt with by a live person in games such as roulette and blackjack.
Each new monthly addition of games at online casinos seems to push the boundaries of those that had preceded them, so there is a never-ending supply of new games at Microgaming powered online casinos.
