MegaJackpots ® Games Meet The MegaJackpots ® Product Management Team Tom O’Brien The year 2007 proved to be a great year for the new Director of MegaJackpots ® Product Management, Tom O’Brien. With many years of experience in the gaming industry, Tom has worked for such companies as Paltronics, AC Coin & Slot and most recently Aristocrat Technologies. Starting with IGT in October 2007, O’Brien says the response he has received from everyone at IGT has been great. He has definitely hit the ground running and as for his goals for 2008, O’Brien says, “We want to continue to supply operators with superior MegaJackpots ® products, so in turn they can give their customers the games they want to play.” He adds, “We are looking to the future.” Boris Hallerbach Hired as part of the IGT Server-Based Gaming group in 2003, Boris brought his product management skills to MegaJackpots ® Product Management in 2004. Hallerbach says “One of the best things about my job is being able to develop and support our brands like no other company in the market.” With a product line that includes: Wheel of Fortune ® , Jeopardy! ® , The Joker’s Wild and Elvis ® , Hallerbach says “Look for more great game play on the game brands players recognize in 2008.” Will Foster Will started his career at IGT in July of 1993. With experience in production, operations and firmware, Will brings a great deal of IGT product knowledge to the team. With a product line that includes: eBay Video Slots, Diamond Jackpots Multi-Level Progressives, Indiana Jones Multi-Level Progressives and Reel Depth, Multi-Strike ® products and Star Wars Multi-Level 36 Progressives, Foster says, “The reception from our customers during G2E on these products was tremendous.” He adds, “Our customers should expect a solid, performing product with a strategic support plan in place including conversions to keep the product fresh. They can also expect to see me or another MegaJackpots ® representative over the next year as we focus on meeting with them to discuss our products and get their valuable feedback, this will help us continue to develop successful products for the market.” Brian Bennett The newest member of the team, Brian Bennett started with IGT in April of 2003 in the Manufacturing Engineering department. Brian’s recent move to MegaJackpots ® Product Management has proved to be a benefit for both Brian and his new co-workers. Brian’s product line includes: Megabucks ® , World Poker Tour ® and The Price Is Right ® , and when asked about his new position, Bennett says, “My goal is to bring new enthusiasm, energy, and perspective to an already extremely successful team, I’m excited to be a part of it all.” “With a strategic support plan in place that includes plenty of conversions to keep products fresh and at the top of every players list, IGT customers should expect solid performing products throughout the year”, O’Brien says. It goes without saying that the MegaJackpots ® Product Management team, with its dynamic line of number one products and the customer in mind, is ready for 2008.
37 MegaJackpots ® Games Super Wild Sweepstakes. Super Success. IGT’s first venture in to the world of online promotions was a huge success. From October through November, the $150,000 Super Wild Sweepstakes offered players a fun and interactive online tutorial on the group-play product Wheel of Fortune ® Super Spin and highlighted a new variation of the Super Spin called Wheel of Fortune ® Super Spin Super Wild Video Slots. A true testament to the popularity of the Wheel of Fortune ® family of games, the sweepstakes was played 138,378 times during the 60-day promotion. And with 18,101 unique registrations, many players came back time and time again. When players logged on to the website they were immediately launched into an animated experience – flying through a casino, zooming toward the Wheel of Fortune ® Super Spin carousel. Players were allowed to play once per day and everyday one lucky player was awarded a Sony Cyber-shot ® Digital Camera. And players also had a chance to win the grand prize of $150,000.
