In celebration of Monopoly’s 75 anniversary, the game has been recreated in an interactive 3D video game called Monopoly Streets. The classic game of building a real estate empire comes alive as you challenge other players worldwide in online play, or friends and family right in your own living room. From the slums of Mediterranean Avenue to the glitz and glam of Park Place and Boardwalk, you can explore the neighborhood as you acquire new properties and stay in luxurious mansions or broken down huts. In Monopoly Streets you’ll be able to set house rules, choose from different game boards and discover new twists in Monopoly City and Monument City. Will you be the next millionaire or will your empire fall into bankruptcy? Test your skills with Monopoly Streets. The game is available in Nintendo Wii, Nintendo DS, Xbox 360 and PS3 formats for under $40.
Monopoly is one of my all time favorite games. A neighborhood friend and myself used to have marathon sessions of Monopoly that would continue on for weeks. I love that you can set house rules even in the video game version! I also love that there is an online play option since my husband isn’t as big of a Monopoly fan as I am and my kids are too little to play. It’s more fun to play against a real person rather than the computer.
Monopoly is a classic that has been around for 75 years and it only gets better with Monopoly Streets!
