    Monopoly has been knocking about for quite a while now. It's been around in one form or another since the 1930s, in fact, with it's origins stretching waaaaaay back to 1904. Something doesn't get to be around for that long without having: a) a solid foundation and b) a knack for evolution. So it is that in 2008 we find the game on those new-fangled games console things. Long-time players and traditionalists will be happy to know that the core experience that has... Read more

    EA has managed to produce a competent virtual version of the classic board game, but we still can't recommend it over buying the real thing. You get numerous boards and the questionable Get Rich Quick mode, but you lose so much by not being able to play the way you want. If the idea of playing a board game seems too last century this virtual edition might be worth a look, but be aware that this is only ever going to be second best. Read more

    Monopoly does its best to be a fun game but even the many boards can't make a real board game of this digital version. You lack the atmosphere of the discussions and also the absence of an online part is unfortunate. The real board game easily rises above this digital version with head and shoulders. Read more

    The game is not criminally poor, and nowhere near as painful as having red hot needles shoved into your eyes, but at times you get an insidious feeling that those involved put as little effort as possible into delivering the final product. Read more
