Cute and fun! Not just for kids! 2009-02-14 |
| By WriterGirl (Frankfurt, Germany) |
| There are other better things I could be doing rather than wasting my time playing computer games. But, if I desire to, I am happy to waste my time playing this game. It is fun and the modern update will probably make the younger generation feel more engaged with properties they grew up with. I gave it a 4 instead of a 5 because: 1)you can't adjust the resolution to fit any computer and 2) you need the CD in the player to run and play. I travel with an Acer Aspire One, which needs an external DVD to load and run programs. The idea of being mobile is to not drag around additional equipment. I can load the game but I can't see the whole screen. It is best run on a larger screen. If you have a 12 inch screen or larger, this is worth playing. |
Disappointing version of Monopoly 2009-01-27 |
| By Samuel R. Gerhard (READING, PA.) |
| First of all, haven't tried any other PC version of Monopoly and was never a Monopoly expert. But as mentioned in other reviews, the cd has to be in the computer to play this. Hence lots more wear and tear on drives. Tried cloning disc and using Nero virtual drive to avoid this to no avail. When installing this game on your computer Sony's Securom DRM program is stealthily installed on your computer. And it prevents playing without the original cd. When I play this it's on an old Amd 1300 computer and the game moves in slow motion. So a faster computer is needed. But playing against a computer doesn't seem right with this game because, "who's rolling the dice"? |
Awesome game 2009-01-17 |
| By R. Mok (Los Angeles, CA) |
Looks great, just like the original pc monopoly game with a more up to date feel.
the only small problem i have with it is that you need the CD inside your computer to play. So if your out in the town and don't have it with you you can't play it.
Just wish it required a cd key instead or something, still great game and great buy for 2.99 |

Makes Monopoly easy to Play 2009-01-09 |
| By vernlee2 (Beautiful Ozarks, MO) |
| We love Monopoly but hate being in the middle of a game and have to pack up or move the board for space. This software game is great--we just save the game and pick up where we left off. Multiple players make it fun for the entire family. |
