Why is your favorite Slot....your favorite?

Hi Gang:
      Had a real quick trip to the Casino today, and my favorite game "Dean Martins Wild Party" let me down again. However that is not the end of the story. After I left Dean I decided to play a game I had never played before, and won $157 on the bonus round betting 1.50/spin. I was excited.

      It got me thinking!!! (First off, if this has been asked before I apologize)

However:
      Many of us have a favorite slot machine that we like to play. (Perhaps it has been lucky for us, perhaps we just like that particular slot machine because we feel we understand it better than some of the others.) Some of us are just crazy for a certain game like I am about Dean Martins Wild Party.
          My question is for myself, as well as others,
          "What makes our "favorite" game...our favorite?"

      Dean Martin let me down, yet it is STILL my favorite game. I simply love the game for it's music, symbols, and the excitment it gives me, each and every time I hit the spin button.  (yet can't I find that in any game?)
      Because I won $157 on the generic slot, should that be my new favorite?
 
    On my next visit to the casino, will I choose Dean? Or will I go back to the generic slot that paid me well? I'm telling you, chances are I will once again return to Dean.
Why is he still my favorite even though I have not won on him in a long while?

      What makes your favorite machine, your favorite?
        * What you could win?
          *The fact that you already did win?
          *Graphics, Music, bonus rounds?
            * Does location have anything to do with it?
        (I myself prefer a certain Dean machine but will play others if that one is not available)
            *Other reasons??

                     
            Looking forward to your responses.

My favs are the games that have the best multipliers in the free spins.  So I have a couple that I always start with online.  At the casino I usually start out with multi-hand video poker.  If I win I go on to the free spin machines.

As to noise, I hate all the noise the machines make.  I like it quiet when I gamble.  Most of the new machines at the casino have a volume button.  I put it as low as it will go before I start.  For online slots, I don't hear a thing.  My volume is off.

Nice topic PMM.

Well, I hit the bars in Oregon, I like VP "Flush Fever" part which ahs done good and VERY good on occasion.

Then for slot (Same machine sometimes) they have "Pharaohs Fortune" which does pretty good even a min bet. It has a "Pick spins/multiplier feature and you keep picking till you hit "Begin free spins" button.

Wildest ever to me was a 14 spin with 4X and I walked out of there with $1,000+ and this was a nickle machine too. But that doesn't happen often enough for me
