World of Warcraft Monopoly released

http://www.gamezone.com/products/world-of-warcraft/news/world-of-warcraft-monopoly-released



Blizzard has finally released the World of Warcraft Monopoly Collector's Edition, because if we need anything, it's another Monopoly board game.

Available now in the Blizzard Online Store for $39.95, you can play the same game that we've had for decades, but with a new World of Warcraft twist. What Blizzard's popular MMORPG and Monopoly have in common is beyond me, but apparently someone at one point thought it was a good idea to mix the two. I guess when you have a Monopoly for every possible thing it just makes sense.

So what does this fully customized game include (aside from the same board with new pictures pasted on it)?

1. The only 'new' Monopoly game worth buying is the Deluxe version by Winning Moves Games.

It's actually got extra spaces on the board, new buildings and a few rules modifications.

But how many different versions of the original do we fucking need?

2. My friend's beach house had a version of Lighthouse Monopoly - we made a drinking game of it

Along with the usual dice rolls if you landed on a lighthouse in a state you visited you had to drink. Since most of the litehouses were east coast, most of us ended up passed out before a winner was declared.
