The most popular slots in land-based casinos are video slots, yet the games that hold their places on casino floors longest are three-reel games. Not only that. Slot games in an  online casino , which essentially are video slots in an Internet environment, earn their keep longer than video slots offline. If there seems to be a contradiction in all that, with the games in the least popular format holding their popularity the longest, there’s really not. There are reasons the most popular three-reel titles such as Double Diamond hold their own for decades and hot  new video slots  titles can be on and off casino floors in a matter of months. In any format, slot games must earn their keep.
