Gambing starts to offer at Ohio Bowling Center

Could bowling centers provide some economic relief for the state? The Bowling Centers Association of Ohio, which represents the interests of 300 bowling centers across the state, thinks so.
“As Ohio lawmakers grapple with the huge budget deficit, the bowling centers are proposing a limited expansion of gaming in their centers,” political consultant Connie Nolder said. “BCAO supports a maximum of 10 video lottery terminals per center, located in a secured area, only accessible to those customers 21 years or older.”
The terminals, Nolder said, would be managed by the Ohio Lottery Commission and could bring in more than $130 million per year to help Ohio schools.
The potential expansion of the state’s gambling industry to permit the use of video lottery terminals (VLTs), commonly referred to as slot machines casino, is no longer limited to racetrack owners and casinos investors. The BCAO hired Nolder to help the organization undertake a grass-roots effort to enable bowling centers to have slot machines if expanded gaming comes to the state.

www.arstechnica.com Sony: PS2 is the gateway drug to the PS3

The PlayStation is, at the moment, the most popular piece of gaming hardware in the world. After selling more than 136 million pieces of hardware around the world, the PS2 recently saw its price drop to $99.99 in North America, that magical sub-$100 price point that makes the system so palatable for gamers on a budget. In fact, Sony is the only major console maker that is still interested in (and profiting from) its last-generation hardware.

Ars caught up with John Koller, Director of Hardware Marketing for Sony Computer Entertainment America, to talk about the system that refuses to die.

A changing audience
While some core gamers may still have PS2s in their entertainment centers, the demographic for the system has changed. "At this stage of its lifecycle, the primary audience centers on casual and social gamers, skewing more towards families who want to play as a family, and individuals who enjoy PlayStation 2 for its wide variety of games and its capabilities as a DVD and CD player," Koller told Ars.

"From a pure gaming perspective, the PlayStation 2 provides a ton of value to those who want a gaming system that feeds into family night or other social activities, considering the low cost of entry for the hardware as well as for the games themselves."

PS2 sales are also important because they get gamers comfortable and happy with the Sony name and then when they're ready—it's time for a PS3. That's the theory, at least.
