Ah yes, good ol Monopoly Junior. Where you can buy rides and attractions for prices of up to five dollars and had to avoid the perils of being sent directly to the restroom.

No one in my circle of friends and family have ever actually finished a game of monopoly. And usually, at least one person doesn't talk to at least one other person for a couple of days.

I'm still not perfectly clear on how a game ends. that's why it is such an awesome game. No other board game in the history of man can do what monopoly can do. I mean, what other game makes you feel like shit when you lose? Or cause you to get in fights with friends/family? I'm sure more than a few couples have broken up do to monopoly. Its a f***ing great game! |

I like Monopoly. One time as a kid I tried creating a WWE themed one.
The Pokemon one was definitely different, because you got to do special stuff when you rolled doubles, such as an opportunity to steal others deeds or teleport to whatever space you felt like (CHEAP~!).
I've noticed that the new regular versions comes with a speed die, and at Toys R Us people are always asking if it's really the original version because it comes with it. People truly love the old school board game.
I also saw a fantasy baseball version where it comes with a hundred stickers or something that you place on the spaces, basically creating your own Monopoly. Unfortunately it's over $40, three times the price of the regular.

Game's SUPPOSED to go such that if you run out of money or can't pay a rent, you're outta the game, and whoever's left wins. Nobody I know actually plays like that

The only time I ever played Monopoly, I ended up picking up the entire board, along with the money, throwing it against my kitchen wall, then going back to room, closing the door, and didn't talk to anyone the rest of the night.
I was like, 9.

I have the Playstation 2 version, Monopoly Here and Now.
It has nine different boards including the Here and Now board, in which you buy entire cities and the currency is the Mono.
It also has a game called "Richest", which is basically speed Monopoly with minigames.

Ah, Monopoly.
The only game that can turn into a violent free-for-all.

Why do I have the thoughts in my head from the game show Monopoly? Man, that show was lousy...
