In this same respect, we have difficulty understanding how a board game on a video screen is any better than the actual, physical game. We understand there are certain benefits – no setup and clean-up time, and the game progresses at a faster rate, for example – but for the most part, there's really no great advantage to playing something like Monopoly on a video screen. Even so, we're obligated to review it, so we may as well do just that. But for the record, let's just say that if you own the board game, we can't really see a reason to buy the video game version. We will touch on a few of the advantages, though, so you'll get a complete look at the production."
