General:
For many consumers the introduction of server-based games will be intentionally transparentmany may not notice a difference at all. However, the potential to catalyze entirely new approaches to your current games offering is so great that operators and vendors undoubtedly will work hard to create competitive advantages.

Value Proposition: Creating Consumer Value and ROI with Server-Based Gaming Room: N112 ~ 9:15 am - 10:15 am (Thursday, November 20, 2008)
General:
Ultimately, vendors suggest they are offering operators much more than merely a linked gaming environment with server-based gaming; but how do the benefits stack up against the costs? This panel will discuss potential capital costs and pricing structures, then compare those costs to such benefits as better player experience, increased time on device, ability to niche the competition, serving the same number of customers with fewer games, enhanced marketing efficiency and more.
