Monopoly 2 (PC)

I’m not a frequent player of computer games – in fact, I only possess three in total for my PC. It is the latest addition to this extensive collection that I wish to write about, Monopoly, which I acquired from streetsonline, where it is sold for only 17.99. However, since writing this op, I have discovered that QXL had it going for a pound - so I picked my little sis up a copy there. In this op, rather than explaining the rules of monopoly, since there are some excellent ops on the board game which do this, I want to show the advantages and disadvantages of purchasing the computer version as opposed to the regular board version.

This game can be very difficult, with players trying to trick others. This ...  Read the complete review

Monopoly is one of the worlds most fustrating yet strangely addictive game. The reason it is underplayed is often due to the difficulty setting up the game. With monopoly this is made easy. Custom rules are easy to make and the game can be tailor fit to your needs. Single player or multiplayer this amazing game is brought to you in the comfort of your own home. I do find this game freezes an incredible amount however (often when the computer is losing) and whilst this may just be me, i have not had the chance to compare, it is a feature of the game i find to be fustrating. The animations and voices can also be annoying to the extent i have to turn them off. This does not ...  Read the complete review
