    A faithful conversion with a clever spin on game play on the Richest mode. It’s a real shame there is no online play.

    In the end, Monopoly's newest video game edition is a good, but not great, interpretation of the Parker Brothers classic.

    A decent port of the classic board game. [Mar 2009, p.93]

    A dull, expensive experience, but it's faithful to the board game, at least. Yawn. [Jan 2009, p.70]

    Massive disappointment. I fail to see how the same developer as the fantastic Monopoly Party (PS2/Xbox/GC) - a game that has an incredibly smooth and easy interface - could then create a version on a more advanced console that is clunky, awkward, slow, and confusing to play... and with no control options to speak of, you're stuck with it. Well, actually, no I'm not... it went back to the store the day after I got it. Stick with the last-gen version, you'll be VERY glad you did.… Expand

    Somehow they didn't include online play. Xbox live is the main reason I wanted Monopoly in video game form at all. If this was an xbox live arcade game for 400pts / 5$, I'd still feel ripped off if they didn't include online play. But this game is a full fledged, expensive game. It's a major rip off. I gave it a 1 since some of the ideas in the game are okay (gameplay modes etc). But they didn't include enough to warrant the price.… Expand

    Don't get me wrong- I'm a Monopoly nut. But sadly, this game isn't Monopoly. Last I checked, Monopoly allows up to 8 players. Last I checked, the version of Monopoly that they made for the SNES back in 199X allows up to 8 players. So I wonder, who was the moron who decided this version should only have up to 4? Even when playing against the AI? Monopoly fans will be sorely disappointed by this title. And to think it was popular enough to be ported to every platform in existence. Even on the freakin' PC it limits you to 4 players (how do we spot a crappy console port again?) Sorry, but the title lies. Despite the unique board, the monocle-clad protagonist, and the little metal dog, this game is not Monopoly. Monopoly has 8 players.… Expand
