Just got back from a week away in Great Yarmouth, the place has changed so much, it is flooded with poxy flipping lo techs, everywhere, is it just me or are these the s******t machines made? I swear they don't actually ever pay f**k all and if they did go up after £30 in, £5 then DEAD. Utterly completely boring as f**k all these flipping lo techs too, DERN DERN DERN (repeat 1000 times) £40 in "player one its you" DERN DERN DERN £1/£5 then DEAD. Sorry to rant I just need to haha, I just want other players views on theses pieces of s**t ie do they ever pay? What streaks are they capable of? Biggest cost for a top box? I'm on about £5 jackpots. Golden Game Party Games Bullion Bars Party time arena etc etc etc, and I only played them as I thought of how bad they really are and I mean terribLe then they must be capable of streaking like mad! Sorry chaps I'm just really interested to hear everyone's stories on £5 lo techs, thank you so much!

5 quid low techs are crap. They save up for a run then dead afterwards.

. Huge runs? But yeah totally crap, I mean yes fair enough AWPs are bad aswell but at least they board, these lo tech b****** just don't seem to do f**k all, I want them banned and bring in a load of AWPs, Great Yarmouth was just flooded with them, like they've sold all their AWP machines and bought party games and everything, depressing and a great shame I think, anyone know of a resort with loads of AWP machines ? Never been Blackpool are there a lot of AWP machines there? BAN LOTECHS!

these lo techs do streak for £30+ the monopoly wheel of wealth, and them bank raids  goes even further £50 plus extra its just a case of catching them at the right time.

but yes I totally agree with you the machines today in recent years are totally crap like you say on min 70%, £20 in for a two pound top is disgusting to say the least. machines for amusement are long gone and they won,t come back. Long live fme for the best era of machines the 80's n 90's

I just wish arcades would have more AWP machines in them, just got back from Yarmouth and it has changed so much, huge arcades with no AWP machines!! Some AWP in a few arcades but most of the really big main arcades like golden nugget leisure land etc just no flipping AWP machines!! Golden games Party times and that's it, a shame I think, such massive arcades with f**k all in them!

[ricardo de ponsa]

Yes agree, Gt Yarmouth, Gorleston, Lowestoft, Cromer and Hunstanton....all the same!!!!!!! Went to Hunstanton a month ago and was bitterly disappointed, all the old favourites 'binned' and ticket redemption with 5 quid low techs as well, everywhere!!!! FFS!!!!!!!

. That's it, fu****g ticket machines, although they are there for families and children which is great but huge arcades with no AWP machines, f*****g stupid arcade owners

I am so glad I grew up in a time where £2 would last me all day in an arcade.

[vectra666]

Ha Ha Ha Vecs, don't start on the, 'back in the old days'!!!!!!!!! I remember threepenny bits and I don't mean......t*ts!!!!!!!

[yorkstar]

Yep them days are truly over, going to the seaside with maybe 20 quid and get a full day of entertainment, tokens galore, streaks, decent features, just very nice gameplay, roller coaster, Andy Capp, crystal maze, big breakfast, just naming a few machines there really shows how depressing arcades now are.

I would love to pop out now on boring Sunday morning for a good play but what's the point, ticket machines, and very boring 5 quid machines, 500 quid machines that eat for fun.

Only place worth going as most know is maidstone to reel fruits, a good days entertainment guaranteed.
Just to hard for me to get to,hopefully get down for an old school flutter November.

Reel fruits is crap, Ive watched the videos on YouTube some bloke saying "I've done £60 in here" and you're telling me that the classic machines are the best?! HAHA NO roller coaster Andy Capp all them pieces of sh*t are crap mate, give me an arcade with a load of reds and extremes that I can rip to f**k then it's all good, don't want to play your gay roller coaster 4 moves if that and block at £1, gay gay gay gay gay

I was in Great Yarmouth on Wednesday and it wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be, having not been there for well over 10 years.  All of the arcades have the same stuff though, and that's because there are hardly any manufacturers left so there's no variety.  Lots of Golden Games but I didn't play any because I expected them to be burnt.  Saw a BWB/Maygay Monopoly and a Project The Roll, but few other classics.  Pottered around and made a few quid to cover food and then ended up in the Palace Casino.  Rained most of the day but I reckon when the weather is nice it would be lovely there - a lot better than what I hear from most people.

Nah the Palace Casino in Yarmouth round the back of the Palace Bingo.  A proper casino, not an arcade.
