Look at all they are doing in terms of inventing new games? Ultimate X, Double Super Times Pay, etc., why not talk IGT and Ballys into doing it somehow? They're the geniuses, after all.

If the casinos are basically scared of having winning players (which they are), then the influence of IGT, etc. won't matter one bit. Think of all the times that casinos have installed these newer games, but so often they insist on installing them with abysmal 97% pay tables, so that the fancy new VP games sit idle most of the time. Is it logical for the manufacturers to spend all that money to develop a new game, and for a casino to spend a lot of money to buy the new machines, only to set them up so that nobody except the most clueless of the clueless will play them - probably playing one coin / one line at a time at minimum denomination? Of course not, but casinos are not known for their logic.
