IE an OPEN running on a Paragon cabinet. I was playing one today. Anyone seen much of these about yet?

it is a diabolical ruse. one of my locals has this setup and has done for 18 months but it serves a mean lamb shank. however, the open menu is not all bad ;)

I haven't seen that one yet but have seen a few Opens in the old Ind:e 'widescreen' cabinet.

Personally I don't have an issue with the principle of this since I only play very selective games, and as long as whichever terminal is running them I am happy.

I do object, however, as mentioned in other threads to this sharp practice, or more likely fool's error, of charging £1 for a game labelled as 50p. That mounts up to quite a daily expense in my line of work. This Open fault appears to have migrated across with their Paragon impostor version.

I've seen one of these; it had the most recent Open line-up with some new games on it.

I also came across an early era OPen with such gems as TXF, TIOLI, TGP and FFQ a short while back, and the drop off in quality of Opens since those days is remarkable. That said, given I took a swift £50 or so from the early era OPEN, emptying it, I can see why they've changed. A pity.
