Advantages: no mess

Disadvantages: not great

For anyone who hasnt heard of monopoly it is a business property game where buying propertys is the key.Each player rolls the dice and if he/she lands on a property they are able to buy it for the fee shown.There are sets of propertys and if all 2/3 are shown then the owner can start buying houses so the opposition has to pay more if he/she lands on their opponants property. There are also chance and community chest squares where if landed on you must pick a card from the middle and do what it says for example collect £50.

This game is for 2 to 6 playes the more players the better the game is as it lasts longer.

Now this monopoly is on the nintendo wii and converts stunningly the graphics and gameplay amazed me as it wasnt for a action game or first person shooter. There is also an option to play against the computer but i feel that with your mates you will have a much better time and it will be a lot more fun.

There is a downside to this playing on the wii all you do is look at the screen and i think that playing with a board dice money is a lot better as you feel that you actually playing game so if i had to choose either the board or the computer game version i would stick to the board which has been around for 70 years and can be found at any retailing game shops.

Summary: prefer the board version
