Needless to say, online gaming is
a very high-tech industry. Its use of advanced software technology and
computers make it one of today’s most dynamic and state-of-the-art businesses.
However, because it has been inspired (and functions largely) by the games of
the olden times, it cannot fully veer away from tradition. Online gambling
is an excellent example of how modernity and tradition produce an exciting,
rewarding, and harmonious relationship between the human culture and machines.
A game with a specific cultural
flavor will prove enticing to players who can easily identify to it. For
example, Malaysian
online casino players will find the slot game Mamak Corner very interesting
because it was themed after the most popular segment of their local cuisine.
Traditional games like Fan Tan and Mahjong can also be huge magnets for the
Chinese, the people who invented them. Themes of European origin—such as The
Three Musketeers, Irish Luck, and Sherlock Holmes—appeal significantly to the
players in that region. At a more global scale, games with reference to pop
culture (think of the Marvel comics, the TV show Britain’s Got Talent, the Olympic
Games, and actress Marilyn Monroe) are especially attractive to most players
around the world.
Indeed, every aspect of modernity
has a huge reference to traditional culture. Even copper wires and Internet
broadband have evolved from an ancient concept, making it incredibly hard to
eradicate history in contemporary elements.
