Media Man reports from the Battle zone
New Games: King Kong, Call of Duty 4, Play Your Cards Right, Monopoly Multiplier
New Brand: AWOMO (A World Of My Own)
Virgin Casino, part of the leading online gaming company - Virgin Games, has announced that it has developed a road map to introduce all the latest casino games in the next twelve months, making it one of the most content rich gaming sites in the UK market.
To help enhance its already strong portfolio, Virgin Casino has taken on a new partner - Playtech company, Gaming Technology Solutions (GTS) - a leading global supplier of gaming solutions for online gaming operations. Playtech provides cutting-edge software to the top operators in the gaming industry, and through the GTS Enhanced Gaming Engine (EdGE) platform, will provide Virgin Casino with access to the best in casino games on the market. Amongst the many exciting games due to be launched this year are Call of Duty 4, Monopoly Multiplier and Play Your Cards Right.
Warren Eloff, Product Manager at Virgin Casino, commented:
"GTS EdGE platform allows us easy access to the best gaming suppliers in the business and partnering with them to help develop our product offering makes perfect sense. We plan to roll out over 100 games this year and among them will be some top brand names, providing our customers with sophisticated and exciting games that they have come to expect from us. With all these new games we will have one of the best casinos available online."
Founded in 2004, Virgin Casino has over 500,000 players and 50 casino games on its site. Via the introduction of a custom built Virgin Games platform in 2008, Virgin Casino seeks to provide its players with the widest possible choice of casino games. Virgin Casino offers games from a growing selection of games producers, including: WagerWorks, Cryptologic, FremantleMedia, Endemol, Dynamite Idea, VS Gaming and Ash Gaming.

Virgin Games To Become Total Gaming Website Portal; A World Of My Own
Virgin Games is expanding into the non-gambling PC games market in a move to transform its brand as a "total gaming" website destination that will also facilitate the company to market the brand in jurisdictions where Virgin's online gambling product is not currently prohibited (eg: most of the Asia Pacific - Australia and the United States).
See World Casino Directory
A business agreement with tech company Game Domain International (GDI) will give Virgin Games access to 200 plus game titles from approx 70 developers available for easy download with names including Tomb Raider: Legend, Rome: Total War, Fifa Football Manager and Warhammer: Mark of Chaos. These will be offered in addition to Virgin Games' current portfolio of online games.
The new system entitled A World of My Own (AWOMO), aims to deliver online game content quicker than rival download services by allowing users to play the games before they are fully downloaded, in addition to offering pay-per-download or regular subscription payment options. It brings new life into the term, virtual worlds.
Virgin Games chief Simon Burridge has gone on record.
"This will open up a huge long tail of people who are gamers but are not prepared to invest heavily in gaming, and will open up PC games to a rental market that has never been done before. If this takes off it could do for the gaming industry what iTunes did for buying music: no-one buys music from shops anymore, they go online to iTunes."
"This will open up parts of the world where we have previously been excluded, including English-speaking markets such as South Africa or the United States where the Virgin brand is strong. That will also allow the brand greater strength in those markets should they regulate online gambling but that is a benefit rather than a main strategic goal".
AWOMO is currently in beta mode and the companies expect to launch the complete product in the third quarter of this year.

PartyCasino VS Virgin Casino - online "war" between iGaming powerhouses, by Greg Tingle - 25th February 2010
PartyCasino VS Virgin Casino - iGaming and gaming sector heats up - United Kingdom, Australia, Italy, Japan, Germany, South America, India, South Africa and beyond
PartyGaming - Asia Pacific - Australian focus, planning on return to United States; Hollywood themed games and tie ins with World Poker Tour owned brand, Asian Poker Tour collaboration, Maintains lead as world's leading online casino brand
Virgin Games - planning on expanding both Gambling and non gambling gaming products; Plans to add over 100 new games within 12 months
Hundreds of game titles are available to play now at both PartyGaming's PartyCasino.com and Richard Branson's VirginCasino.com
Punters take note...PartyCasino.com can be accessed in most of the Asia Pacific including Australia and New Zealand, and hotspot, Tasmania, while Virgin Casino can not currently be accessed in those regions. Both companies are looking to soon be able to offering paid games to the United States, in a race which numerous experts say PartyGaming is winning. PartyGaming also owns and operates the famous World Poker Tour (which is available to American punters).
Background
PartyCasino.com VS VirginGames.com
Background to the war...
The "war" between igaming rivals PartyCasino.com and Virgin Games heats up further with the news hot off the press that Richard Branson's Virgin Games will be getting more smash hit games including the King Kong slot.
In addition Richard Branson's Virgin Games is planning a non gambling service: A World Of My Own (AWOMO), which will be able to provide gamers with a cutting edgy technology service in basically all parts of the world, including in regions where traditional online gambling is not permitted. The strength of the Virgin brand, combined with Virgin's track record of success in new ventures and technology stack the odds in favour of the launch being a huge success. Virgin and competitor, PartyGaming, also have very strong news media, igaming, political and business connections.
Virgin's AWOMO is currently in beta testing, and is expected to launch the complete product in the third quarter of this year.
PartyGaming is pushing the interactive elements of its gaming with "Live Dealer", "Casino Calendar" and "Avatar" type technologies just around the corner.
The Casinos
Both online casinos are world class. PartyCasino.com has won the Casino News Media Online Casino of the Month title a number of times and Virgin has made the shortlist for the past 3 months. PartyGaming has won a number of eGaming Review awards and commendations over the years including Socially Responsible Operator Of The Year and Operator Of The Year. PartyCasino.com offers rewards program PartyPoints, while Virgin offers V*Points.
The main point of difference for many potential players is that PartyCasino.com accepts Australian players while Virgin currently does not. PartyCasino also offers a wider variety of multi language and multi currency options. Both casinos offer play for free or play for money options.
Jackpots
Party offers Gold Mega Jackpot, The Big One, Marvel Hero Jackpot and Super Hero Jackpot
Virgin offers MegaJackpots, Marvel Hero Jackpot and Super Hero Jackpot
Virgin Enterprises Limited is one of the world's most successful companies as is PartyGaming. PartyGaming is listed on the London Stock Exchange and was established in 1997. Virgin Games was established in 2005 and Virgin Enterprises was founded by Richard Branson in 1970.

Harrah's CEO: Las Vegas still weak - 22nd February 2010
Harrah's Entertainment Inc sees few signs that Las Vegas is recovering from the slump that began with the financial crash of 2008, the company's chief executive said on Monday at the Reuters Travel and Leisure Summit in New York.
Citywide gambling revenue in Las Vegas has begun to stabilize, but room rates are still heavily discounted as casino operators compete to attract visitors.
"We are the cheapest date in the world ... That generates lots and lots of visitors," said Gary Loveman, CEO of Harrah's, the world's largest gambling company. "Las Vegas remains weak and will remain weak for the foreseeable future."
He also said Las Vegas group business bookings for 2011 are "encouraging," but 2010 remains soft.
Loveman attributed the prolonged downturn to customers' lack of cash amid the economic downturn and increased competition from new Las Vegas Strip resorts like MGM Mirage's $8.5 billion 6,000-room CityCenter.
Harrah's last week acquired the Strip's troubled Planet Hollywood resort by spending about $70 million to buy its discounted debt and agreeing to take over a $554 million mortgage.
"We got a building for a fraction of replacement cost," Loveman said.
Planet Hollywood gives the company seven contiguous resorts on the east side of the Las Vegas Strip -- it also owns Caesars Palace on the west side of the Strip.
NO ACTIVE MACAU TALKS
Harrah's, which was acquired by private equity firms Apollo Management APOLO.UL and TPG Capital TPG.UL in 2008, relies on Las Vegas and Atlantic City, New Jersey, for about 40 percent of its earnings.
The company, which has more than 50 casinos in six countries, also operates in regional U.S. gambling markets like Tunica, Mississippi, New Orleans and southern Indiana.
Loveman said Harrah's remains interested in a presence in China's Macau -- the world's largest gambling center -- but is not actively discussing such a deal.
"We do have an interest in Macau. We think Caesars is the best brand for that market," Loveman said.
The Chinese government has issued six gambling licenses in Macau, and U.S. companies MGM, Las Vegas Sands Corp and Wynn Resorts Ltd have casinos there.
The Harrah's CEO declined to comment on whether the company would consider a deal involving Australia's Crown Ltd, which owns a stake in Macau operator Melco Crown Entertainment.
During the recession, Harrah's has managed to avoid defaulting on its debt by renegotiating with its banks and buying bonds back at discounted prices.
The company, which now has a total debt load of about $19 billion, faces no major maturities before 2013, when nearly $6 billion comes due.
"It is possible that may be extended," Loveman said.
Meanwhile, Harrah's will focus on its massive customer database to continue driving business at its casinos.
Loveman said the company is in the process of rolling out the next iteration of its loyalty program -- called Total Rewards -- to include much more individualized, real-time targeting of customers.
"We think it enhances margins ... but mainly it makes for a much more satisfied customer," he said.
The CEO expects the new system to be up and running in about a year in Las Vegas, pending regulatory approvals.
Loveman said it will allow Harrah's to offer frequent gamblers things like a free hotel night if occupancy is low or a special cocktail before they even think of it.
It's like "Medicare comes to casino beverages," he said.

Punters take note...PartyCasino.com can be accessed in most of the Asia Pacific including Australia and New Zealand, and hotspot, Tasmania, while Virgin Casino can not currently be accessed in those regions.

You’ll visit treacherous war zones around the globe in Call of Duty 4’s incredible bonus round, where you can win free games and cash prizes by shooting down your enemies.
Game Objective:
Call of Duty 4 is a five-reel, twenty five-paylines Non Jackpot slot game with two bonus features. The first feature is a random exploding symbol which will create other wild SOLDIER symbols on the reels. This is random and you'll either see a grenade being thrown onto the screen exploding some symbols, or you'll see a soldier run up and plant explosives on the reels.
The other bonus feature is triggered when you hit 3 or more scattered LOGO symbols anywhere on the reels. Here you must shoot down the enemies as they appear on the screen, much like in the computer game. You'll win up to 4 free games for each soldier killed and you'll even get a bonus for head shots. There are bonus prizes for destroying cars and barrels. If you manage to kill 5 soldiers in a row as a streak, you'll be awarded with an airstrike which will award 3, 4 or 5 as a multiplier for the free games. If there are no airstrikes you play the free games at 2x multiplier.

Virgin Enterprises Limited is one of the world's most successful companies as is PartyGaming. PartyGaming is listed on the London Stock Exchange and was established in 1997. Virgin Games was established in 2005 and Virgin Enterprises was founded by Richard Branson in 1970.

PartyGaming Casino Bets Boost Fourth Quarter; Satisfied players and management, by Greg Tingle - 17th February 2010
Online gambling group PartyGaming last week reported a 32% rise in fourth quarter sales as the thawing economic climate prompts punters to return to its virtual poker and casino tables to play the group's improved online games.
The company, which is listed on the London stock exchange but based in tax-friendly Gibraltar, said sales rose to $132.2 million in the three months to Dec. 31 from $100.4 million last year, helped by two acquisitions and a particularly strong performance in its casino division which offers online casino games like slots, blackjack and roulette, online poker games, sports betting and spread betting services.
PartyPoker.com remains the companies flagship brand however in the past 12 months PartyCasino.com has experienced considerable growth and brand presence, boosted by both branded slot games like Rambo, Mission: Impossible, Top Gun, Call Of Action 4: Modern Warfare, Resident Evil, The Terminator, Saturday Night Fever, The Godfather, a host of Marvel Entertainment themed games, and the recent news media campaign of which cricket and reality TV figure Phil 'Tuffers' Tufnell is the front man for.
PartyGaming is still on the look out for more igaming and betting sector companies to buy up following it's successful purchases of World Poker Tour and Cashcade. Earlier this month PartyGaming inked a "white label" deal with London Capital Group enhancing its spread betting offerings.
The company is the world's biggest listed online gaming group by market capitalization, derives most of its revenue from online poker and casino games and owns and operates a more modest sized sports book and bingo business, which is currently on the upswing.
Finance director Martin Weigold told reporters on a conference call following the results that casino revenue was boosted by a customer who won $5 million in one of the group's large jackpots and recycled $2 million of that win back into PartyGaming's casino website.
Weigold advised that the unusually strong sales rise is not sustainable going forward into 2010, however the company still expects to report double digit sales and profit growth in the year.
The bullish outlook for 2010 sits comfortably with the group's 2009 earnings, which it expects to be ahead of its own board forecasts.
Weigold said market consensus is for 'clean' earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization, or Ebitda, of $132 million in 2010, and PartyGaming expects to outperform this.
'Clean' Ebitda is the company's preferred measure of profitability and excludes one-off, non-recurring and non-cash items. It is due to report is full year results March 4.
The good news buoyed PartyGaming shares, up 3.2% or 9 pence to 294p.
Alongside casino improvements, PartyGaming also reversed an 18-month trend of quarter-on-quarter revenue declines for its poker division, posting a 9% rise in sales to $49.1 million.
PartyGaming's poker operations had been under pressure due to competition from rivals, and the company has reacted by increasing the bonuses paid and expanding its loyalty programs (PartyPoints and Palladium Lounge)to encourage customers onto the site and retain them. Certainly Asia Pacific - Australian based players are sticking with it, based on feedback and buzz passed onto Asia Pacific's Media Man and Casino News Media firms.
The online gaming sector was hit by the passing of the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act in October 2006 which effectively shut down the ultra lucrative market in the U.S. In Europe though, E.U. competition rules have prompted countries to start to open up their regulatory regimes to new players, and PartyGaming is looking to expand its operations when this happens.
It already has a growing presence in Italy, and with France and Denmark due to formalize regulation this year and next, the company is confident of its future growth prospects. South Africa, South America and India also appear to be countries well suited to grow the business. The Australian market is on fire says industry insiders. Australians remain some of the world's most passionate punters, in the top ten says recent figures quoted in the likes of Forbes, News Limited, Fairfax, WSJ, AP and Google News. The Aussie's are massive fans of the Hollywood blockbuster slot games and Marvel Entertainment titles Thor, The Incredible Hulk, Fantastic Four and The Amazing Spider-Man. Insiders advise Aussies are punting big in search of the Marvel Hero Jackpot, almost as popular as Party's 'The Big One' and 'Gold Mega Jackpot', currently sitting on approximately 3 million dollars.
PartyGaming is well aware that it's in the entertainment business and is pro active in putting the Business in Show, while maintaining happy punters, clients, partners and investors.
In addition the company is in discussions with other operators about potential deals and takeovers, although Chief Executive Jim Ryan wouldn't be drawn on whether a transformational deal would be forthcoming this year. Bwin's name keeps coming up, but its one of dozens who are keen to ink high end deals with PartyGaming.
Numis analyst Andrew Wade said he believes PartyGaming's fourth quarter performance should position it well for any merger and acquisition discussions, "as well as confirming it as an attractive partner for State and Private companies wanting to enter new markets."
The company is currently experiencing considerable growth in the Asia Pacific - Australian region, and is poised to return to the United States market, which compliments its strategic purchase of World Poker Tour, not to forget masses of U.S residents keen to play PartyGaming's Hollywood blockbuster slot games.
PartyGaming is expected to have presence at the upcoming iGaming Business event in Sydney, Australia this coming March.

PartyCasino.com VS VirginGames.com
The "war" between igaming rivals PartyCasino.com and Virgin Games heats up further with the news hot off the press that Richard Branson's Virgin Games will be getting the smash hit game on Wednesday 18th February 2010.
Both online casinos are world class. PartyCasino.com has won the Casino News Media Online Casino of the Month title a number of times and Virgin has made the shortlist for the past 3 months. PartyGaming has won a number of eGaming Review awards and commendations over the years including Socially Responsible Operator Of The Year an Operator Of The Year. PartyCasino.com offers rewards program PartyPoints, while Virgin offers V*Points.
The main point of difference for many potential players is that PartyCasino.com accepts Australian players while Virgin currently does not. PartyCasino also offers a wider variety of multi language and multi currency options. Both casinos offer play for free or play for money options.
Virgin Enterprises Limited is one of the world's most successful companies as is PartyGaming. PartyGaming is listed on the London Stock Exchange and was established in 1997. Virgin Games was established in 2005 and Virgin Enterprises was founded by Richard Branson in 1970.

The multi award winning Call Of Duty 4 videogame is one of the most popular game titles of all time and is right up there with Cleopatra, Space Invaders and Tomb Raider.
Action fans can also check out the likes of Rambo, The Terminator and Mission: Impossible at PartyCasino.com If you like Rambo, you'll likely love Call Of Action.
The Call Of Duty 4 slot features five reels and 25 paylines to give you the chance to win a staggering 400,000 in your account currency.
You’ll visit treacherous war zones around the globe in Call of Duty 4’s incredible bonus round, where you can win free games and cash prizes by shooting down your enemies.
Game Objective:
Call of Duty 4 is a five-reel, twenty five-paylines Non Jackpot slot game with two bonus features. The first feature is a random exploding symbol which will create other wild SOLDIER symbols on the reels. This is random and you'll either see a grenade being thrown onto the screen exploding some symbols, or you'll see a soldier run up and plant explosives on the reels.
The other bonus feature is triggered when you hit 3 or more scattered LOGO symbols anywhere on the reels. Here you must shoot down the enemies as they appear on the screen, much like in the computer game. You'll win up to 4 free games for each soldier killed and you'll even get a bonus for head shots. There are bonus prizes for destroying cars and barrels. If you manage to kill 5 soldiers in a row as a streak, you'll be awarded with an airstrike which will award 3, 4 or 5 as a multiplier for the free games. If there are no airstrikes you play the free games at 2x multiplier.
Game Information:
The minimum bet amount is $0.01 USD and the maximum bet amount is $2000 USD.
You can bet on up to twenty five lines
PartyCasino.com VS VirginGames.com
The "war" between igaming rivals PartyCasino.com and Virgin Games heats up further with the news hot off the press that Richard Branson's Virgin Games will be getting the smash hit game on Wednesday 18th February 2010.
Both online casinos are world class. PartyCasino.com has won the Casino News Media Online Casino of the Month title a number of times and Virgin has made the shortlist for the past 3 months. PartyGaming has won a number of eGaming Review awards and commendations over the years including Socially Responsible Operator Of The Year an Operator Of The Year. PartyCasino.com offers rewards program PartyPoints, while Virgin offers V*Points.
The main point of difference for many potential players is that PartyCasino.com accepts Australian players while Virgin currently does not. PartyCasino also offers a wider variety of multi language and multi currency options. Both casinos offer play for free or play for money options.
Virgin Enterprises Limited is one of the world's most successful companies as is PartyGaming. PartyGaming is listed on the London Stock Exchange and was established in 1997. Virgin Games was established in 2005 and Virgin Enterprises was founded by Richard Branson in 1970.

PartyCasino News: PartyCasino Announces New Feature, by Greg Tingle - February 2010
Online gaming kingpin, PartyCasino.com, has just added a new feature that will eliminate the need to sign into the casino in order to see what events and promotions are happening.
The Casino Calendar feature displays all of PartyCasino's events laid out month by month, so you can see at an instant the promotions running on your preferred days to play as well as helping the player plan weeks or months in advance.
PartyCasino has added a new feature that shows players the most significant bonuses, promotions and any other current events within the casino. Both online casinos and passionate, informed players know that one of the "secrets" to playing a successful game is keeping up with the news and current happenings.
With this feature, players won’t have to repeatedly sign on to the casino to find out what that month’s promotions are; the Casino Calendar will send an alert automatically. It is presented as a week-by-week grid with seven blocks representing the days of the week. If a promotion or other type of event is being held, it will be clearly marked on the specific day in the calendar.
An example of the marked calendar is for this week (8th to 14th February); there is a red heart on every day. The hearts represent the 'Cupid’s Pot of Love' promotion that is running everyday. This week, players can win thousands of dollars in Valentine’s Day prizes. Also keep an eye out for Slot-tastic Sundays, 'The Big One', 'Cash Machine', 'Treasure Hunt' and 'Fruit Medley'.
This feature allows players the freedom to check out the Casino Calendar at the beginning of every month and plan out when they will be playing, according to the promotions, events and bonuses. PartyCasino has always been known to keep on top of trends but this new feature puts them well ahead of the pack.
PartyCasino is available for play around the clock 24/7/365 in a wide array of multi language and multi currency options.
Play for free or play for money. Casino, Table Games, Poker, Bingo, Skill Games and more.
PartyGaming is the parent company of PartyCasino.com and was established in 1997. They are listed on the London Stock Exchange and are widely regarded as the world's most popular and most successful online gaming operation.
Australian, Canadian, European, South American, Indian and South African players welcome. Check the website for full details.
*The writer has a b2b relationship with PartyGaming, as they do with dozens of companies in the igaming, gaming, media and entertainment world.

North Carolina Education Lottery - Big Winners Feb. 8 - Feb. 11
THREE PEOPLE WIN $100,000 EACH PLAYING “THE PRICE IS RIGHT” INSTANT SCRATCH-OFF GAME
RALEIGH- Beverly Harrison of Statesville, Jeffrey Boswell of Burlington and Christopher Chase of Jacksonville are the most recent $100,000 winners of “The Price is Right” instant scratch-off game. Harrison scratched off the $100,000 prize after purchasing two tickets at Fast Phil’s on Shelton Avenue in Statesville. She told NCEL officials that she plans to use her winnings, which totaled $68,001 after taxes, to travel, shop and save for the future.
Jeffrey Boswell said he could not believe he won and is considering getting a new truck with his winnings. He purchased his winning ticket, worth $68,001 after taxes, at Food Lion on North NC Highway 109.
Christopher Chase won when he played a scratch-off game for the first time after purchasing a ticket at the Whizz Mart #5 on Gum Branch Road in Jacksonville. He told lottery officials that at first he thought the prize was $100 but after seeing the comma, he “froze” and realized he had won $100,000 ($68,001 after taxes). He plans to use some of the money for college classes and to purchase a new car.
Two Powerball tickets are big winners after they matched four white balls and the Powerball in the Feb. 10 drawing. One ticket, sold at the Quick Stop on North Horner Boulevard in Sanford is worth $50,000 because it was Power Played and the multiplier was five. The other winning ticket was not Power Played and is worth $10,000. It was sold at Capi’s Exxon Deli & Bakery on Chapel Hill Road in Morrisville.
A total of 24,807 North Carolina Powerball players won prizes in the Wednesday, Feb. 10 Powerball drawing ranging from $3 to $50,000 for a total payout in prizes worth over $307,714. Because no tickets matched all five white balls and the Powerball, the jackpot for the Saturday, Feb. 13 drawing is an estimated $25 million.
A total of 13,302 North Carolina Mega Millions players won prizes in the Tuesday, Feb. 9 Mega Millions drawing ranging from $2 to $600 for a total payout in prizes worth $98,954. Because no tickets matched all five white balls and the Mega Ball, the jackpot for the Friday, Feb. 12 Mega Millions drawing is an estimated $44 million.
The North Carolina Education Lottery (NCEL) has paid out over $5.7 million total in instant scratch-off ticket prizes since Monday, Feb. 8. Also since Monday, “Carolina Pick 3” players have won over $1.7 million, “Carolina Pick 4” players have won more than $211,000 and 12 tickets won the top prize of $5,000. “Carolina Cash 5” players have won over $88,000.

PartyGaming selects Phil ‘Tuffers’ Tufnell; PartyCasino to get more games and Avatar type technology
Reality TV, Celeb and Cricket Star "Tuffers" signs with PartyCasino.com
Websites
PartyCasino.com PartyPoker.com PartyBingo.com
Leading listed online gaming operator PartyGaming has hired former England cricket player turned television presenter Phil ‘Tuffers’ Tufnell to be the first celebrity ambassador for its PartyCasino.com domain.
One of the industry’s leading firms, PartyGaming owns the World Poker Tour land-based poker tournament series while also operating popular websites such as PartyPoker.com PartyBingo.com GetMinted.com and FoxyBingo.com
In 2003, London-born Tufnell won the I’m A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here reality television show and has been hired to boost PartyCasino.com’s gross-gender appeal. He will front a television, press and outdoor advertising campaign in the UK created by Leeds-based advertising agency Home highlighting the range of casino games available on the site.
“I had a lot of fun making the ads,” said Tufnell.
“I'm hoping this is the start of a long relationship with PartyGaming. I have advertised PartyCasino.com but I am also a keen poker player so have huge interest in sister site PartyPoker.com.
“I understand Shane Warne is ‘down under’ playing in a big poker tournament at the moment. I wish I was there to take him on. He may have been able to turn a ball further than me but I can certainly turn a card better and, if I don't, at least I've got my own hair. Warne is the only player who can lose his chips and his hair at the poker table.”
