Aristocrat brings future of gaming to NIGA

16 April 2008

LAS VEGAS, Nevada -- (PRESS RELEASE) -- There are many imposters, and only
one true original. The differences can be seen in Aristocrat Technologies'
NIGA trade show booth. NIGA 08 takes place April 22-23 at the San Diego
Convention Center, and from booth #1217, Aristocrat will energize the slot
floors of Tribal casinos across North America with truly original games,
systems, platforms and cabinets.

Aristocrat, a NIGA Associate Member since 1998, will be showing its new
VIRIDIAN cabinet and GEN7 platform, which was recently named the year's
"Best New Slot Product" by Global Gaming Business Magazine. Wowing judges
and attendees alike at G2E 2007, VIRIDIAN has been receiving global rave
reviews since its launch.

The VIRIDIAN cabinet is designed for optimal player comfort and
operator serviceability and features a slimmer footprint, high resolution
dual LCDs and unique, wrap-around belly art, creating a truly unique
product offering. VIRIDIAN embraces environmentally responsible design and
production methods, resulting in a 100 percent RoHS-compliant product and
increased energy efficiency for operators.

Driven by an Intel(TM) processor, the innovative GEN7 platform features
dynamic scorecards and an enhanced Easy Play on-screen interface, including
player-selectable denominations. The new platform utilizes Smart card and
flash card technology, and, in addition to offering an enhanced player
experience, GEN7 paves the way for downloadable, server-based and wireless
gaming, supporting the technology of today while driving the technology of
the future.

Also powered by the GEN7 platform is the new 4-level multi-site
progressive Hyperlink(TM), Fa Fa Fa Fortune King(TM), Double Standalone
Progressive(TM) Banana King(TM), featuring six different bonus adventures
for players to navigate and enjoy, and these exciting new innovative games:
Geisha(TM) Power Pay(TM), Double Happiness(TM) Power Pay, Show Me The
Game(TM) Power Pay, Butterfly Kiss(TM), Polynesian Pearl(TM), African
Storm(TM) and Harlequin Hearts(TM).

Aristocrat will also be showing one of the "Best
Productivity-Enhancement Technology" winners, ACE Interactive(TM). As the
industry continually experiments with different content delivery channels
and open source environments, ACE Interactive provides a truly server-based
solution featuring software distribution, instant or scheduled game
configurations, powerful system management tools and the opportunity to
implement games from any provider. Additionally, the Download and
Configuration Manager, which is being co-developed by Aristocrat and Bally
Technologies, will be demonstrated on the show floor.

Player's World - By Demand(TM) brings four highly successful low line
games in three different player-selectable denominations under one umbrella
in Aristocrat's first ever multi-game multi-denom product package.
Utilizing Aristocrat's brand new Easy Play Interface, players will select
their game and denomination of choice on screen with the option of changing
games and denominations whenever they wish. Player's World - By Demand is
an excellent and flexible addition to the casino floor.

Of course every operator knows Cash Express(TM), Aristocrat's highly
successful 4-level progressive Hyperlink(TM), and is proven ability to
attract and retain players. Now Cash Express Player's World Super(TM)

choice of four different Aristocrat games to play.
