First Claim
1. A gaming system comprising:
- at least one input device;
at least one display device;
at least one processor; and
at least one memory device which stores a plurality of instructions, which when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to operate with the at least one display device and the at least one input device to;
(a) receive a code indicating a point of termination of a video presentation,(b) randomly determine an outcome of a game play,(c) determine that the randomly determined outcome corresponds to a display of the video presentation, and(d) in response to determining that the randomly determined outcome corresponds to the display of the video presentation, cause a display of the video presentation resumed from the point of termination.

Abstract
A gaming system includes a network server connected to a plurality of gaming devices that are adapted to provide a video payout on each play based on a set of payout parameters. Memory at each gaming device stores payout parameters that correspond to each possible gaming result or outcome. When a play is initiated by a player, a gaming result is generated at a gaming device. The gaming device responds by accessing a corresponding payout parameter from the memory which may be a monetary amount, a video presentation segment or a combination thereof. If the payout is video, the network server receives the payout parameter and transmits video presentation segment to the gaming device accordingly. The gaming device then provides a video payout, in the form of displayed video presentation, to the player. The player thus receives at least one form of payment on each play.
