Monopoly Live
Almost everything these days integrate computer technology in them. This version of Monopoly, dubbed Monopoly Live, is expected to come out in the Fall of 2011 for an estimated $50. Monopoly Live uses various sensors located around the game board that track any movements and analyzes its reaction. there is a "tower" at the top which contains a computer/processor to execute commands. The positive "effect" is that the on-board computer hurls out random Chance and community chest phrases, instead of having to eventually repeat the process and have the same (boring) cards all over again. This way, you won't get tired of the same cards and phrases, which adds a variety of different choices to the game. Although it is a great product for a great price, I wouldn't buy it for the reason that I was lazy (if I were) in a way that I couldn't move a piece across the board or pick up a card. I would only buy it merely for the fact that I would not want to be bored and adding flavor to the game is a good thing (especially when the game lasts several hours).
