Full Version Monopoly PC Game - Could Monopoly 3 PC Game Replace the Traditional Board Game?

Before comparing the full version Monopoly PC game Monopoly 3 with the original, first let me say that the traditional Monopoly board game is still one of the world's favorite board games. Many of the popular board games of today were created over 50 years ago, in the case of Monopoly it was created back in the early 1900's. There are not many recent board game creations that have been able to match the popularity of the old classics which also includes Cluedo, Risk and Scrabble.

What do these classic board games have in common that make them such well-loved pass times:

• Their rules are straight-forward
• Simple fun so that everyone from all ages can understand and play
• Everyone enjoys a little friendly competition
• As boxed sets they are easy to set up and play - as long as you have someone around to play with
• They are a great way to share some free time with your family
• This is an effective way to spend quality time with your children
  
• Even in later years, we all have memories of playing board games with our parents or siblings
• And as grown-ups we all have a common nostalgia of the board games we used to play when we were young

1. The traditional game usually allows for up to 6 players.Whereas, the Monopoly PC game, Monopoly 3 allows you a choice of opponents:

• Play with up to six people around the same PC
• Or play against the computer with a number of AI opponents which vary in difficulty levels
• Or use the multi-player feature and you can play online with other Monopoly fans.

2. The traditional Monopoly game rules of buying and selling, amassing wealth and building properties, collecting rents and paying out when you get a penalty are well-known.

With this full version Monopoly PC game you still get to play with the traditional board game rules, which is great for fans because it is due to the simplicity of these rules that makes this Monopoly game so popular. But if you want you can customize the rules in Monopoly 3 to suit your requirements.

There are also some additional benefits to playing this full version Monopoly PC game:

3. Choose the city you want your board layout to be based on. With Monopoly 3 you can choose from the classic board or a board based on 10 major cities, such as New York or Boston.

4. The visual element of this game is really nice. There are animated playing tokens which are fascinating to watch as they move around the board, the 3D dice roll on the board very realistically, and there are the chance and community chest cards which have been given the 3D treatment but still use the old drawings.

5. The virtual Monopoly game has a nice simple interface, the game set up is instant – this is another benefit over the real-world board game!

Playing this virtual Monopoly PC game means that:

• You can play against the computer and use the different difficulty to improve your skills
• You can meet and play with other board game fans online
• The animation makes this virtual game visually appealing
• The convenience of having it on your computer so you can play anytime you want
• Unlike many other Monopoly PC games versions, Monopoly 3 uses the good old traditional rules

All in all nothing beats playing the traditional board game. As it is a great way to spend quality time with your family and friends. But this is a great alternative especially when you don’t have anyone around to play Monopoly with!
