2008 was the year of mobile gaming, with casino games that could be played on mobile phones becoming the most popular casino games of the past 12 months. As phones became more technologically advanced and mobile games like Ooh Aah Dracula became more interactive - with better graphics and enhanced interactive features - it was clear that mobile gaming was the casino craze of 2008. Mobile casino games like Elvis Top 20 and Hi 5 were some of the most popular slots in the country last year.
2009 looks set to put the emphasis back onto online casinos. With the New Year already a month old, many online casinos are looking at ways to draw in new online gamers, keep their regular players happy and stay one step ahead of the competition.
In an effort to do all three, it is thought that online casinos will dedicate their resources to making the user experience better than ever.
Many industry experts are predicting that online casinos will focus their efforts on providing a more involving experience for the gamer. In an effort to engage a wide audience of players, online casinos will be focusing on specific goals. Three of which we predict you'll see in many online casinos:
- Increasing the interactivity of games, recreating the land-based casino experience.
- Releasing games with improved graphics and sounds.
- Continuing to offer fantastic bonuses on the most popular online casino games.
Efforts to implement these measures can already been seen in some online casinos. Whether this is offering more games - Kerching Casino recently released the popular Lil' Lady slot - or by increasing the number of bonuses available on games like online roulette or online blackjack, 2009 is the year online casinos get even better.
