Monopoly Pains

I’m in the same boat as you guys. I would have loved in on XBLA for $5-$10 but if I really want a monopoly fix know I’ll just find some friends to play with at home or find a free version to play online.

This is pretty screwed up, plus I am one of the few people that is OCD about buyign EVERY retail release that comes out. Oh i’ll be buying this one too BUT

If EA thinks they can get away with slapping us in the face with this then I will just pull some strings and slap them in the face with an 82.3 trillion dollar lawsuit.

EA seriously does not want me as an enemy. I will buy them out then liquidate their assets in under a week… Oh and after all that i will use the proceeds I gain from selling all their assets to go buy a cheeseburger at McDonalds.

What a bunch of jerks.

I can’t agree enough. Pardon the expression but Xbox Live is prime real estate for Monoply, one of the greatest board games ever created.

I will only consider buying this if it includes a legacy version of the original Monopoly and not the bastardized version they've come up with.

If they have online multiplayer then I'm buying it for sure. My brother is about 3000 miles away from me and we play each other over xbox live. This game would bring bcak old memories of playing monopoly with the family for hours.I actually am glad it is a retail disc game. I rather pay more money for a better game and know that it is my game. The whole DRM issue has me skeptical of buying any XBLA games since I have to be online to play them. After 3 RROD you really wonder if its worth buying any stuff off marketplace.The other issue is HD space. I have a 'premium' console and my 20 GB HDD is pretty full of maps, songpacks, arcade games, demos, and TV shows now. I have less than 2GB of space left and cant justify playing $180 for an extra 100 GB's of HD space.Some of the new XBLA games are now over 120 MB's and at this rate I wont have room for many more not to mention any DLC. I mean just with GRAW 2 all the DLC is about 3GB, add CoD2, CoD3, and CoD4 maps and that is another 3.5 GB's. RSV1 has 1.4 GB and GRAW1 Chapter 2 is close to 1GB. All this space on my HD is annoying when you have to keep deleting and re-downloading content you paid for.I'm glad the game is on retail disc. Who knows the game may actually be too big for XBLA. I think the limit is 200 MB? Personaly I'm glad it's a retail game and for $40 its worth having the game on something tangible that I can place into my 360 DVD tray.
