Same happened to my mate he had the cash trail upto £16 rpt. Had an extra life and then eliminated all the boxes and luckily got £15 the other box was £3. Next board was dead as a door nail

Played one today for the first time... BFG shite? Yep

Fluked a MS on it though for £38 though from £5... lets just say i left it at that!

All the modern BFG are all the same nowadays anyway.... Having the same game play, same boards and some shity, chessy music!

Had similar thing happen to me, go in to play a regular LAB only to find out it has been replaced with this pile of shite.

£30 in and playing ok then trail run to eliminate the remaining boxes that leaves me with £25 and 10p it offers £6 something which I turn down, having an extra life, Super Streak filled and two Mega Streak boxes filled, proceeds auto collect my box... 10p, 10 fu*&^%$ p, to say I was annoyed was an understatement!!!

£15 later eliminated all boxes again and was left with Mega Streak and £8, it gave £8 that repeated 4 times so made a sharp exit vowing never to play the pile of shite again!!!

I was in a bar yesterday and the only other person in there was the Barmaid. Whilst I was happily playing a Red (Roll With It - I 'think' is the name!), she was going from the bar to this DOND machine putting pound after pound into it. Anyway, after I'd left the Red for dead, I sauntered over to see if she was having any luck. She said she'd put £80 through with nothing to show for it. (She said refil day was Monday, and it had been backing from about the £30 stage.)

Every board would go straight to mystery and then death! Nothing else offered. It did start to pick up a bit later, offering the super board etc (result in a couple of 10p wins!!! Jesus!)

Well, she'd put £120 into it by now and had nowt more change to put in. I think that is the first time I've seen someone put tat much money into a single machine, and I've decided to just leave and not try following it up. What a waste of space!

So, what's with this 'Lose' first move on pretty much every board? I know BFMs are shite, but I never thought they'd stoop to that level!!!

That takes the piss, machines going to Mystery first spin for a pretty much guaranteed Lose/Game Over (or Hilo to Go on a stupid number like an 8, losing both ways), it would have been better if it done it on the second or third, even if it wasn't going to give you a win, if it just gave you a couple of spins offering nudges, lit symbols or something. Some Bellfruits take the piss killing on the first hi-lo gamble, Chav It! and Powerball do this now and again.

This machine can take the piss, My mate had an Extra Life, £16 on the cash ladder, high up on the features, landed on a ? & got Cashing out for £3, surely that cant be right!

The Streaks can be a good rip tho, Streak is £12-£16, Super Streak £18-£22 & Mega Streak £25-£38 - This is on the m/c I play anyway.
