Get ready to take your gaming experience up a dimension. The brand new Sphinx 4D slot machines have arrived at Station Casinos!
As our guest, you are now able to experience IGT’s “CrystalCurve True 4D” cabinet, the “world’s only glasses-free three-dimensional entertainment machine,” according to developers.
Let us take you through the wonderful world of 4D.
What’s the heck is “4D”?
Okay, get ready for some fancy techno-speak. With the Crystal Curve True 4D cabinet, you’ll be able to touch and feel the graphics above your seat on a 50-inch curved screen with ultra-HD display. IGT’s award-winning 3D glasses-free visual display floats game images in mid-air in front of you as you’re playing.
Gesture cameras allow you to reach out and move, swipe, spin, and fully interact with game and 3D objects without ever touching the screen. Then, more crazy technology happens, allowing you to feel virtual objects as they float in the air via the use of ultrasonic sound waves. 4D uses an array of special speakers (transducers) that focus high frequency sound waves (ultrasound) that can be felt by the hand. IGT has mapped these patterns so, long story short, players can feel what they see in front of them.
Enough of the fancy tech talk. Where can I play these games?

The 2015 Mint 400 in Las Vegas
Known as “The Great American Off-Road Race,” the Mint 400 is once again taking place annually in Las Vegas Nevada. This is one of the most storied and grueling races in US racing history. Started 1967 by Norm Johnson as a promotional tool for his hotel, The Mint, the annual race was run annually until 1989 where it ended as The Mint was sold to Jack Binion in 1988.
The Las Vegas Mint Hotel & Casino
The history of the event is built around coverage from Hunter S. Thompson for his 1971 novel Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas and the celebrities that routinely participated in the race. Some of the most famous people to compete in the Mint 400 were Al Unser, Steve McQueen, Rick Mears, Ted Nugent, and Ivan Stewart.

[contentblock id=2 img=gcb.png]
Everyone loves a buffet when they’re famished, but do you have to sacrifice quality and service for the convenience and value? Station Casinos says NO!
Personal Experience at Feast Buffet
I decided to head on in for lunch and see what the best buffet in Las Vegas has to offer. Even though lunch rush was in full swing, the line vaporized before I readied myself with wallet and cash. The cashier, Nora, smiled and quickly processed my order. In no time, I found myself trailing my host to a single table.
