To customize your board you're going to need to make BMP files if you intend to skip the provided clip art. The board moves utterly slow and choppy, which might freeze up the game and your system! If you're going to utilize this new 3D board you're going to need a computer upgrade to at least the lower end of a Pentium III, as well as tons of RAM. However at first, it might be difficult discovering how to rotate the board and once you reach that point there seems to be a memory-hogging problem. The most noticeable difference would be the introduction of a 3D board and 3D tokens, which is a major improvement over the previously pre-rendered animations of Monopoly for Windows. All of these features will definitely retain interest in the game. It even adds new ways to play the game such as the multi-player and online features, and especially the customization of your own board! You can get right into the game with the Quick Game rules that may save time if you don't fancy setting up all the parameters. This is a serious game of Parker Brothers's Monopoly that is fun and complex, combining all the areas of the traditional board game missing from earlier versions.
