It is a sign of the times for everything to go digital. "Monopoly" is following that trend, again. "Monopoly" tried to remain cool with removing paper money in exchange for a credit card that keeps track of all of your money. Now, they took it a step further. The new "Monopoly" has not only gotten rid of the paper money, it has now gotten rid of the dice. In exchange for those two things it now has a giant computer tower that sits in the middle of the board. The ten-inch tower uses infrared technology to keep track of the board and "roll" the dice for you. Also, players will buy and sell properties by holding their hands over special decals and will check their accounts by inserting ATM cards into the tower.

It sounds cool, but can it make "Monopoly" more fun? Don't get me wrong, it is fun for the first hour then it seems to drag on and how cheap can a board game that has a ten-inch computer come with it really be?
