  Very poor quality game

  by SaturnDrew on December 28, 2009

  Pros: Monopoly is one of my favorite board games of all time, even with the flaws I'm mentioning it still is a fun game.

  Cons: Inconsistent with actual board game
  Slow game play
  Difficult operation

  Summary: 1. Inconsistent with the actual board game. Luxury Tax is 100 dollars instead of 75. The chance and community chest cards are not the same as the actual board game, ...

  Summary: 1. Inconsistent with the actual board game. Luxury Tax is 100 dollars instead of 75. The chance and community chest cards are not the same as the actual board game, for example, "It's your birthday. Collect $10 from each player."
  2. Several times the same card during play was drawn on consecutive plays. This should never happen in the real version since rules state that used community chest and chance cards should be discarded on the bottom of the deck.
  3. Transactions such as buying/selling houses, mortgaging/unmortgaging property, etc. are to be performed at the end of the players' turn in this edition. Every other version I have played, these transactions are to occur at the end of the players' turn.
  4. Found a couple of bugs...If you don't have enough money to get out of jail, you are bailed out automatically and, in turn, don't have to pay the $50. Also, the game automatically rolls the dice for you when you are trying to get out of jail.
  5. The Monopoly man's voice gets tiresome after a while when he says the same things over and over again. I find myself muting the game after playing for some time. He also has trouble keeping up with the game when several things happen all at one time.
  6. The game is overall difficult for making transactions such as mortgaging property, buying houses, and making trades. I remember the Super Nintendo version was much easier.
  
  I can also say that I'm not a big fan of the mini-games that were developed for this version of Monopoly either. Then again, I am a bit of a Monopoly purist.

  10 instead of 11

  Pros: Lots of fun

  Cons: roll eleven, move 10, what's up with that

  Summary: Fix the 10 for 11
