Do Pubs really want them though? If they're constantly breaking down as many are, I doubt many landlords are thrilled at having to get the operators out again to fix it again if a simply switch on and off dosen't make it right. We know Fruit machines are far more profitable for the pubs and bars. Pl...

Many Wetherspoons are closing down now....in small towns where there's two in close proximity one is usually going...have noticed this in Tamworth and Walsall on my patch so imagine it's similar. That and of course any new Wetherspoons that open rarely have a quiz machine. So you are left with Hungr...

Quite interesting....I've always found the gamesnets pretty reliable for collecting big 20 quid + wins. On the other hand I get nervous whenever I win over a tenner on PMP on the Paragon, I think they're far worse for crashing on payout or generally not accepting coin. That said one of the few pubs ...

Has to be one of the most annoying features installed in this new update. Playing PMP as I always do and the game now frequently disappears on the new Paragon version. Fair enough if I have a really good couple of gos and get 14-20 quid out of it but yesterday was in the Trent Bridge Spoons which I ...

Yep got 30 up for sale now (a few that still have a Quiz machine in aswell....) and already in the West Midlands several have already closed. In places like Walsall and Tamworth where there were 2 100 yards from each other on the high street. Looks like a business that wants to streamline and just g...

Big one for me is all the new 'spoons opening....and I really don't think I've seen a new one in the last two years have a quiz machine although happy to be corrected. There are also a few 'spoons shutting......and many of them that I've visited had a quizzer last time I visited... http://www.ibtime...

Not too many on the walk from the station anymore, Spoons used to have a kudos, other Spoons round the corner had a bog standard Paragon while the Green King pub close by had an I quest, all bitten the dust on my last visit. The Beefeater I believe still has a gamesnet although can't say I frequent ...

Apologies for bumping a very old thread but was in a pub on the outskirts of Nottingham (towards Mansfield) and convince this guy was playing the quiz machine while I waited. One of my favourite haunts now as incredibly still has an issue 32 Gamesnet (any more locations would be very welcome!) so sa...

Love that show, the faces when they think they're about to win 30 quid crack me up.

Actually was watching it and googled the pub, it's the scream one in Bournemouth although when I visited about 6 weeks ago it was just the Paragon in there.

Any of you played Bejewelled on the I Quest as it's pretty much the same format....e.g win a quid after about the 10th go, even 2 quid is a fantasy idea.

I played the Birdz game just last week actually as I like playing Bejewelled on the I quest and it's the closest game on the Paragon.

Too much effort to win even a quid though and tbh aswell killing animals dosen't sit well with me so don't think it's the most family friendly game!

So the G box thread make me think of this smart contraption......

Haven't seen any at all, the mentioned Derby location has took it out and re-installed a Paragon in its place.
