Sounds interesting, though I'm guessing it still won't be as enjoyable as I found Monopoly Tycoon to be.
Monopoly needs to be an Xbox Live Arcade title, that would be ideal! Come to think of it, Live Arcade could do with more board game-based titles.
Yeah! I played the GBA version and it sucked, but on live it could be interesting, web cam and all.Quote:

That was half the fun in the real board game and paper money. Constantly keeping an eye on everything the other players were doing and especially so with the banker (usually me). The electronic version (the one with that card reader) really spoiled a lot of that fun.
I agree.Quote:

However this strategy never worked when I was younger, everyone thought I had stolen the money from the bank!
