Gamebosh Review: Monopoly

Gamebosh writes: "The world seems to be going crazy about revamping old board games at the moment. Michael Bay is making Battleship into a movie (Pearl Harbour 2? That’s just sadistic), Pirates helmer Gore Verbinski is doing Cluedo and Sir Ridley Scott himself is taking on Monopoly, er, somehow. Monopoly doesn’t exactly scream ‘there’s a story here’ does it?

This new video game based on one of the world’s most popular board games incorporates the Wii controls for ‘shaking’ your dice or bidding on a property up for auction, with standard controls across the board on other versions. There are also some alternate versions of the tried and tested formula, but really it’s the game we know and love transferred to the 3-D realm."
