Two dragons, 3 chinese noodle pots to open/climb either dragon i think, £25JP.

QPR maybe?

got a glance of it in an old local, i have played it before and remember it not being to bad? think it has 1 or 2 clones.

This is it

It's crap. can cost to force and doesn't always streak.

its ok, clone of jack and the beanstreak basically.

progresive machine, so it should only take one/two boards to see what sort of mood it is in.

Not quite as cheap as Jack And Benstreak tho is it??

Would compare that comparison to note runner and then Jolly Roger.

One goes in when you think and the other always seems to take the piss for that much longer!!

Funnily, I always thought that the best ;clone' of this style of machine, wasn't even made by the same company!

Bank Raid - by Maygay 'loved' giving £100 tops from the three icons. I remember some escapades of trying to escape with £100 coins in tow from beady eyes in potentially violent pub!

I usually found them ok for a punt. To be honest, i'd be happier seeing a load of those old extremes about than games media!

I used to like the early ones.

A pub near me had a note runner and a bank raid at the same time. Me and a fellow player used to just grab one each and get stuck in.

Note runner particularly was so readable by the exchanges. Particularly remember exchanging and the feature column starting on 'note runner...a tad keen methinks!

Totally agree MB, I actually quite liked DD by Extreme. When full it wasn't always about going all out, you could also push it through the £5 block and you'd get an enhanced period of wins. Sometimes it'd just be there. You'd collect something then suddenly lots of £5-£15ish wins. Maybe the odd stray jackpot.
Also had superhold for jackpot on Extreme's '25'.
I got f***ked over by a Games Media today, so I'm going to praise those older machines for their kinder nature.

Meh, Double Dragon was the worst ever repeater for me off the top. I got £25 most times, just one of those annoying things - no reason for it.

Noterunners and Beanstreaks were classic (no-talent needed) extremes, as well as maygays bankraid, as RUDE says, you just get stuck in, trying to get rid of 30 beforehand is the only ball-ache with these, great boredom-buster though when you not got a lot on

The other clone... '25', was a bit more costly, i would put them in the jolly roger/double dragon category which i personally never got on with

Extreme Eddie may have a story to tell on a '25' in grantham...

My memory is bad here but I think you tapped the first gold button when you got a gameover and it let you spin on most of the time.

Not seen one for many years
