"Downloadable" gaming is a term referring to the downloading of game content and represents a new development over traditional slot machines.
"Downloadable" is technology which gives the casino operator control over the game styles, denominations, and themes on the floor in any number of slot machines linked to a central computer server. Under this type of system, the operator can download slot game content, including complete programs, or different versions of the same game in various denominations, to a central server. Games or versions of games are then downloaded to specially equipped game terminals on the floor. An operator managing a server-based slot floor can switch games out within the same cabinets at will, to assure he has games on his floor that are the most desirable to the players in the casino at any given time.
The downloading of game content is accompanied by many other functions which streamline the management of a slot floor. Server-based gaming implies a lot more than the ability to download games. It allows an operator to manage those games remotely. In a full, interactive system, each time there is a bet placed, there will be a dialogue between the terminal and the server. In the case of Cyberview's system, everything is audited and tracked at the central-server level.
In the end, the downloadable gaming is all about giving the operator a new tool-an unprecedented tool to manage the slot floor, to adapt to change instantly, and to maximize profits.
