4.0 out of 5 stars An Old Board Game Gets A Facelift, December 23, 1999

Having played practically every type of Monopoly from the classic to computer I found this game to be unique in it's own right. Originally, I thought this game couldn't decide what it wanted to be, a game for kids, teenagers or adults. I've decided it has appeal to each group in its own way. The graphics are basically good, although the board itself was less than sharp in some ways. The animation of the pieces is cute and kids will like it. Even if you turn off the movement of the pieces, it still is funny as the pieces are engulfed by the board and pop up where they are supposed to. I wish when you build houses and hotels that there would be more animation than the buildings just appearing. They do however reflect the true appearence of the game. I just think maybe they could have made houses on Baltic Avenue and Boardwalk for example different, given the value of the properties. The menu system for trading and building is somewhat cumbersome. I felt it could have been consolidated better into fewer steps. It works but I think could frustrate gamers. My suggestion is to discuss trades with your proposed partner and decide exactly what's what and then enter your choices after agreeing to terms. I really liked the ability to modify the game play like "free parking, rent immunity, timed games"etc. This is an excellent addition. Overall, a darn good game with only a few flaws in my opinion. Highly recommended.

4.0 out of 5 stars Monopoly is a hoot !!!, June 28, 2001

This review is from: Monopoly (Game Cartridge)

My children and I played this game and had a blast. The 3D characters are so cute. The Graphics are cool. There are some complicated features such as mortgaging properties, buying houses, but read the manual, try it out, then it is a breeze. I really like the feature at the end where it adds up all the assets for you :))) The winner gets a trophy (virtual trophy that is lol).

This game is quite fun but it got old pretty quick. I purchased mine through a pawn shop and had no directions and found it rather difficult to figure everything out. It is great to see different characters walk around the screen smiling or frowning. The game is very customizable: Free Parking, X2 if land on GO, Travel around board once before buying property, etc. You can even set the skill of your computer opponents! Great technology but Monopoly isn't the same without the old-fashioned counting.
