(I am not a big fan of casinos, but that sound is definitely the winner in those places.) I wonder what the science to that is? Ballys, Konami, and the others clearly have given that a tremendous amount of thought.
By the way, I think that tune is also intrinsic to you personally, since “Reid’s Song” has that same wonderful slot machine sensation…
P.S. this post’s reCaptcha included the word “Riverside,” my home town. Is this the first product of the always panoptic Google buying the technology from Luis von Ahn?
