21/02/10 07:51 Filed in: Casino News | InterCasino
Fans of InterCasino.com and InterPoker.com will soon be enjoying their favourite online games through a brand new appearance. The popular internet gambling website has announced plans that will see the entire InterCasino brand being re-launched later this month, complete with a fresh site aesthetic and an improved feature set.
InterCasino’s facelift is part of the company’s wider goal of revitalizing its business for long-time fans and newcomers alike. The website’s current look has remained static since the brand’s launch in 1996 and now, more than a decade later, it’s finally time for the company to aim some well-deserved attention at its aesthetic. InterCasino will adopt a look that reflects modern design and functionality, including the reconfiguration of its current registration process and casino lobby. InterCasino (and its sister site, InterPoker.com) have both been redesigned through the assistance of noted, international branding consultants, Michael Peters and Partners.
The online gambling industry is always changing and smart companies are sure to keep on the cutting edge in order to maintain their relevancy. Although many players are sure to be wary of alterations to a familiar website, InterCasino.com’s plans to revamp its aesthetic will, no doubt, have positive effects in the months and years to come. InterCasino’s new domain appearance will launch on February 24th, 2010.

11/02/10 09:48 Filed in: Paddy Power Casino | Casino News
Paddy Power Casino, ever the supporter of national sporting, is getting behind the recently kicked-off Six Nations Championship with the addition of a new, rugby-themed game. Rugby Reactors, the game in question, lets Paddy players relive the action of the annual Championship right from their home — while still enjoying the opportunity to win great cash prizes.
The arcade-style Rugby Reactors games now launched at Paddy Power Casino bring the excitement of rugby to every website visitor. Paddy Power’s new game lets members of the site challenge themselves with the task of matching up animated rugby symbols. Payouts depend on the worth of these symbols. Matching up enough of them will cause the pictures to explode and make room for the addition of new symbols to the game. Chaining together large chains of matches leads to larger rewards. Currently, £140,000 is available as a jackpot.
Paddy Power Casino players can enter a game of Rugby Reactors for as low as £1 in stakes. The site also accompanies its arcade-style rugby fun with similarly themed progressive jackpot slots. Rugby Reactors features the likenesses of several rugby champions such as France’s Sebastien Chabal and England’s Jonny Wilkinson (with Martin Castrogeovannis being the most profitable in-game icon).

Lottery cards have been a staple of the gambling world for centuries and now, with Playtech’s recent decision to partner with international lottery company, Scientific Games, the time-honoured game could be arriving soon at top online casinos like BetFair, William Hill and more.

Both companies have long exhibited a thorough understanding of their markets and their collaboration will, no doubt, act as yet another bridge between traditional forms of gambling and the games offered at online casinos.
Many of the industry’s leading online casinos make use of Playtech software to power their games. We can expect to see Playtech casinos, BetFair Casino, BetFred Casino and William Hill Casino at the top of the list when Sciplay’s lottery games launch in the near future.
