Bally Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: BYI)  unveils games featuring popular icons Michael Jackson, Betty Boop and the cast of the hit move Grease at the 2011 Global Gaming Expo Oct. 4-6 at the Sands Expo and Convention Center on the Las Vegas Strip. The worldwide gaming innovator will showcase nearly 300 games, cutting-edge systems technologies, and interactive solutions at its 15,300 square foot booth #1127.

Michael Jackson King of Pop features one of the most widely beloved and influential artists of all time in an exciting, music-filled game on Bally's new Pro SeriesTM V22/32 cabinet with the new custom, professional Pro Series surround-sound chair. Offering everything from mystery wilds bonuses and free games bonus events featuring Don't Stop Till You Get Enough, Billie Jean, Beat It and Smooth Criminal, this game is highlighted by a U-SpinTM Platinum Record Bonus. Michael Jackson is represented exclusively for licensing by the Bravado International Group.

Grease, inspired by the 1978 American musical film about two love-struck teens in a 1950s high school, is Bally's first double-play game, featuring two, 25-line games - enabling the player to play two games at once.

Betty Boop's Fortune TellerTM, the new companion game to the hit Betty Boop's Love MeterTM, offers an unprecedented 15 bonuses at any bet and U-SpinTM and U-ChooseTM bonuses. Both of these globally recognized new brands are available on Bally's trailblazing ALPHA 2TM Pro HammerheadTM cabinet.

The Company will showcase an unprecedented lineup of highly entertaining, interactive new for-sale content for its ALPHA 2 Pro Series [8] cabinets, featuring an array of new play mechanics and iDeckTM bonuses never before available on core product.

For its Pro Upright and Slant core for-sale video cabinets, Bally showcases 17 new game titles, including Fish'n for LootTM and Total BlastTM, both featuring the iDeck as an arcade-like player input device. These dramatically exciting new games introduce Bally's new U-ShootTM virtual shooting gallery bonus-game play mechanic in which the player touches the iDeck to create weapons for "shooting" at targets on the main game screens.

Trailblazing New Play Mechanics

Bally takes the arcade favorite Skee-Ball game to a new level on the Pro V32, with a bonus feature in which players touch and slide to "bowl" the Skee-Ball, winning "tickets" that enable them to "Pick a Prize" on the game that reveals credit awards. There will be seven Pro V32 games featured at G2E, including Skee-Ball and All That JazzTM, which has a revolutionary iDeck feature called U-PlayTM, in which players touch and spin virtual piano keys.

A host of mobile technology will be on display, including more than 20 custom casino applications across multiple platforms that Bally has created for its casino partners. Bally's lineup of mobile solutions also features Service Tracking ManagerTM, a mobile-based dispatch system that dramatically improves service on the casino floor by routing patron requests to employees on handheld devices such as the iPhone® and iPad®, and an array of mobile play-for-fun games based on Bally's popular casino games.
