I got this one because it was ten dollars cheaper than the new editions. However, even on my modern PC, the useless 3D graphics are buggy. Sometimes my pieces would just disappear. The announcer and voices are also rather annoying and repetitive.
The worst part is that due to all the animations, the game takes forever to play. The 2008 edition is much easier and faster to play, and much more fun.

The board filling the entire screen and spinning tended to give one vertigo. But when you minimized the board and stopped the spinning, it was almost impossible to see the player pieces and who was where.

Having to insert the CD every time you wanted to play was not acceptable. I travel a lot and have no intention of taking a CD with me so I can play a board game I loaded on my PC.

The second time I tried to play at home, my PC would not recognize any data on the CD. It was as if the information had been erased but the CD had just been lying on the table for a few days.

I would not recommend this version of Monopoly to anyone.

Great game, that is very playable in this computer game format. Love the animation and personality of the pieces. Also love the low cost of this game. Get it, you can't go wrong for the price.

This game was a gift and it was really appreciated. Works just like the board game except you have someone talking to you throughout the game.

I played a pc version of monopoly on Win 95 that looked and played better and smoother than this version. Very disappointed in the poor gameplay, the horrible 3D graphics and the irratating token voices. I'm going to try the 2008 version and hope for the best.

Thought this would be fun with online play, it uses gamespy arcade which has about 14 members total :/. Only ever saw one person online and they werent playing. Sucks.

Not worth the cd its printed on!

this is a very nice game. Nice graphics and you can controle the options and sounds. U can even choose what bord u want and change the rules. Lots of fun.

LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT, THIS WAS MY FIRST TIME ORDERING FROM AMAZON AND I REALLY ENJOYED THE EXPERIENCE. I GOT MY PACKAGE ON TIME AND EVERYTHING WAS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AND WORKED PROPERLY. THANK YOU.

Younger kids will probably like the animation and audio. Tokens are hard to see and property prices could be more easily accessible.

UPDATE 26/9/10: Now that I've spent more time with it, I'm lowering my rating. The game program is simplistic: eg. offering low-rent blue property(s) to complete a computer player's set for almost any higher end one+$$$ to complete your own high-rent set (thus with the deal highly favorable to you), almost always works virtually ensuring your win. The program very annoyingly interrupts your deal-making constantly with its own often silly (eg. bargaining for a very few $$ difference or making ridiculous/meaningless offers such exchange of same-set properties which really makes no difference to any player) which is very frustrating. The program provides little challenge and you can easily end up with a win average of 90%+.

I really enjoy playing this game! Glad I purchased it!
