 one of the best board games everyFeb 08, 2010
I recently got back into Monopoly and am really loving these new sets. Very nice and a real bargain for all the hours of enjoyment you'll get from it. It's also a great educational lesson for both kids and adults, teaching about investments, passive income, saving, and more. Lots of fun, especially when you have a group of about four players.
There are a lot of versions of this game and this one is the best in my opinion. So classic that it's hard to improve on. :)

 If you are annoyed by small "updates," this is not the set for youJan 18, 2010
This Monopoly set was cheaply produced in China, as you might guess given its price. For a family looking for a first set, it seems satisfactory. But anyone who has played Monopoly for years should be on notice that this set, redesigned in 2008, includes several minor annoyances.
First, the most practical annoyance. The board folds up into quarters, which allows the manufacturer to fit the set into a smaller box, presumably to reduce production costs. But because the box is somewhat smaller (about 16 inches long), there is no room for the sort of convenient tray for Monopoly money that was once standard in the old boxes (which were about 20 inches long). This is annoying for both gameplay and storage.
Second, the producers have unnecessarily and inexplicably made small changes to the rules of the game -- rules that have stood for more than half a century. Landing on the Luxury Tax space used to cost you $75; now it costs $100. The new rules also change the numbers of each kind of bill to be apportioned to players at the start of the game -- and in fact, the game comes with a smaller supply of some bills.
Mention of this set's Monopoly money brings us to the third annoyance: the manufacturers made numerous gratuitous changes to the look of the game. The palette of colors used for Monopoly bills in the United States since the 1940s has been changed: The $10 bill used to be yellow; now it's blue. The $50 bill used to be blue; now it's purple. (These changes make it hard to reuse money from older Monopoly sets.) Among the other unnecessary changes to the look of the game: The formerly purple properties on the board (Mediterranean Avenue and Baltic Avenue) have been recolored brown. The Community Chest and Chance cards are now printed on white cardstock instead of the familiar orange and yellow, and the classic drawings on those cards have been replaced with computer-generated 3D cartoons. Even the "Go" space has been redesigned: now the word "Go" is written in black instead of the familiar red. (Stodgy purists might also be put off by the various alterations to font, logo, and other design elements.)
To be sure, these changes do not alter the fundamentals of the game itself. But they are annoying enough that anyone with nostalgic memories of the game from childhood should consider a different set.

 Classic MonopolyJan 09, 2010
After 5 uses, I can already tell that the fold up game board is not going to last very long. This is the basic, no frills, classic game of monopoly.

 This game should be named "Monotony"Sep 21, 2009
As a kid my parents bought this for me and I was fascinated by the pewter pieces, the property cards, and all the other pieces. It held promises of infinite fun. When I finally played it it at 10 it was ok but we didn't finish. Fast forward 16 years and after 20 minutes the game board me to tears (pun intended). The problem is after a while the game relies on luck for you to land on the unbought properties. There is another version of Monotony that has a special die which speeds up the game greatly by allowing you to advance to the next unowned property. That made the game more bearable but still it's not something I'd ever play again.
If you have never played this game I STRONGLY recommend you play it at least once with someone before buying your own copy. Otherwise, don't waste your money. There are a lot of other games that are MUCH more fun and enjoyable, including many "Euro" style that have more depth and background. My copy of Monotony is going to Goodwill next time I go there.
My recommendations
Party: Buzzword, Catchphrase, Cheroodles, Pictionary,
Cinemaplexity, Taboo, The Great Dalmuti, Too Many Cooks
Trivia: Wits and Wagers, NewsHound, In Pursuit
Euro Style (requires a bit more thought but have much more depth): Carcassonne, Shadows Over Camelot, Ticket to Ride, Agricola
