Wait. Why do we need Wifi for this?

I believe Clue will be a Player's Life game.

Hi All,

Hot dog, my plans are taking me to Vegas sometime in the last half of March. I'd love to give the game a try. Keep us informed on when it's spotted in the casinos, thanks.

Good luck to all,

Da Rei

Do the machines need Wi-Fi? I thought they are hard wired into a local server. I didn't think Wi-Fi could handle the information and speed necessary for the logged in games.

You can unlock all the bonuses for a 24 hour period after you have played the game here on Players Life... Hence you will need access to wi-fi while in Vegas to be able to do the unlock before you play for real in a casino.

I asked WMS on YouTube when they would start to appear in Vegas and they confirmed they would start appearing in March.

Hi BT:

Sounds like we are getting mini-games. They will give you the opportunity to unlock all of the BONUS ROUNDS for a period of time (I've heard 24 hours and 48 hours).

So ... when DW and I got to Vegas, we will need WIFI to connect to Player's Life and unlock our BONUSES.

Hi daddy:

Yes. Typically, the actual casino game would be wired.

However, I would think that WIFI could handle the traffic. Keep in mind, the software is all on the machine. It is just sending and retrieving player data -- and I'm not sure that has to be done in "real time". WIFI can carry a lot of traffic these days!

Are there any community games you enjoy? If so ... which ones have been your favorate?

I had the most luck on the POWERBALL one.

Clue doesn't show up in the games section anymore. What happened?
