Monopoly was one of my favourite board games growing up. I used to drive my parents mad asking them to play it with me, but they never wanted to because it takes so long to play!

We got given a new set for Christmas, it's the modern Limited Edition one 'The Here And Now' and it has more modern locations like the London Eye, The Millennium Dome and Wembley Stadium.

It's fun having the new locations and the new little figures to play with, but the money is so confusing now! Instead of having 1s up to 500 notes, it's 10,000 notes up to 500 million notes. It was really confusing, I kept paying people millions instead of thousands, no wonder I was so rubbish at it this time, I'm usually good!

I like the digital Monopoly games I have on my r4 ds and my iPad, but for the board game I'm going to stay true to the classic original!
