System for providing an interface for a gaming device

A system and method manages an electronic gaming environment. The gaming environment includes at least one gaming device. The system includes a database and a computer coupled to the database. The database stores system and user account data for at least one user and establishes a default language for the system. The computer is networked to the device. A user interface, associated with either the computer or the gaming device identifies a user, interacts with the user, and provides access to the system as a function of the identity of the user. The user interface is displayed in (a) in a preferred language of the identified user or (b) in the default language of the system if no preferred language is specified.

Entertainment management system with multi-lingual support

A gaming system for playing a game and processing currency includes a plurality of player interaction terminals adaptable for determining a winning outcome of the game and receiving and processing the currency and discharging the currency in response to the winning outcome of the game. Each player interaction terminal generates various sounds as the game is played and as the winning outcome is determined. A controller operably communicates with each of the player interaction terminals. A tracking device communicates with each of the player interaction terminals and the controller and is held by a casino attendant who moves the tracking device relative each of the player interaction terminals for selectively adjusting the sounds of each of the player interaction terminals and to synch and/or mute or dial down the volume so that a general message, such as, for example an emergency message, may be broadcast.

System and method for controlling volume associated with gaming system

A method and apparatus including at least one interactive gaming symbol. The interactive gaming symbol may operate either at random or upon the initiation and direction of a player to replace a gaming symbol with a replacement symbol. The replacement symbol may alter the outcome of the game depending on its position with respect to one or more paylines and depending on the newly resultant combination of symbols associated with such paylines. A gaming device incorporating the use of an interactive gaming symbol may also include an interactive controller to control the orientation movement and actions of the interactive gaming symbol.

Gaming apparatus and method of gaming including interactive gaming symbols for producing different outcomes

A gaming method and apparatus including at least one interactive gaming symbol. The interactive gaming symbol may operate either at random, or upon the initiation and direction of a player to perceptibly interact with and transform a gaming symbol into a randomly selected new symbol or an indication of an award. A newly transformed symbol may alter the outcome of the game depending on its position with respect to one or more paylines and depending on the newly resultant combination of symbols associated with such paylines. A gaming device incorporating the use of an interactive gaming symbol may also include an interactive controller to control the orientation, movement and actions of the interactive gaming symbol.
