| 32 of 36 people found the following review helpful  Best console Monopoly video game so far BUT there are problems, By = Fun:  This review is from: Monopoly Streets (Video Game) If EA fixes the Issues / Problems / Bugs in this game, then I'll give this game 5 stars. Until then...UPDATE #2: EA has released another DLC item, a 3D "CITY" board called Stratosphere City for 560 MS Points. It's a futuristic city with hover cars. It has custom names for the properties and cards, unlike the prevoius DLC Championship board. Please Note: this is a "CITY" board so it has the buildings that are constructed as your build houses and hotels, etc etc... UPDATE #1: EA just released some DLC for this game. The board is 240 MS Points and the tokens are 80 MS Points each. Championship Board (Las Vegas 2009 Monopoly Championship theme). This board uses an official Monopoly game board since it's a recreation of the 2009 Monopoly tournament championship. There are NO custom names for the properties, community chest or chance cards. Horse and Rider (Male Jockey) token Cannon (Army Guy) token Rocking Horse (Female Equestrian)... Read more 14 of 15 people found the following review helpful Fun game indeed, By Terrence L. Williams (Brooklyn, New York) - See all my reviews = Fun: Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Monopoly Streets (Video Game) This is a VERY fun game!!! The new mode (Streets) is a fresh take on the classic game. I have to say....I don't play very many games online, but this game is a blast to play via Xbox Live. You can customize the rules to your liking, and the game runs very smooth with no lag at all. The only gripe is that the avatars are pre-selected to match your token.....and their voices and animations can get a bit stale after a while. Fear not because the game gives you the ability to skip those animations!!! The major difference between this and the version for the PS3 is that you get to use your Xbox avatars in place of the generic avatars provided in the PlayStation 3 version. I am such a fan of games, I ended up getting a copy of both for each system. This is truly ONE OF THOSE GAMES that you can spend HOURS playing!!! 10 of 10 people found the following review helpful I don't really like Monopoly but..., By k lee "kayleec" (Seattle, WA United States) - See all my reviews = Fun:  This review is from: Monopoly Streets (Video Game) So I am not really a monopoly fan but was looking for a game that was easy to play with a variety of people young, old, newbies to video games and veterans to video games. I think this fits the bill. I am terrible at Monopoly anyway and always lose, but at least this version is fun and interesting while I am losing. The sounds the characters make are super funny and the ability to customize the rules is also a plus. One thing I would change is allowing you to choose a piece AND your character rather than forcing a player to only have the character attached to a specific piece.We felt the game play was too slow so we sped it up in the Options area and the game moved so much quicker. It's not very involved and that is just what I wanted - simple, easy to start, and put away when needed. I would say the only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is because I don't really like Monopoly in general, but others in the house love the game and we enjoy playing it... Read more |
