Has anyone bought this recently and, if so, is it truly the classic game or is it the new crappy version?

It is the Classic ed. but the original tokens were wooden and these are plastic. That's basically the only difference. The paper pad to write your answers is also different.

I checked to see if Monopoly was different from the Junior one I bought when my kid was smaller. She LOVED this game. We will update 2014 but game is fabulous until that age.

I am not sure what the old version was but my grandkids played it a very short time and have not requested to play again...maybe they were to old for it.11, 10, & 8

Yes this is the actual game, if you buy an expansion pack you need to make sure that this is installed first :) hope this helps

Hello, The pictures in MY listing are the exact game I'm offering. http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B00000IWD0/ref=dp_olp_0?ie=UTF8&condition;=all&sr;=1-1&qid;=1430055020. The game is like new but for some minor box wear as described but I don't know the vintage.

Hello Gene, if you are looking at the prices on the "new" ones, I would not call them a joke but they are absolutely ridiculous. They will not sell for that price and I really do not understand why people list them as such. That being said, the prices in the $50 to $100 range are the going rate for this version of the game.

I'm not sure, the version I have played was purchased at a game store. I would assume that if it is a new copy that it probably is. Most of the time the revised editions are only different in that they clear up any hard to understand rules and put new pictures on the cards. This game did not have any issues with the rules that I saw, it was just horribly boring. I would stay away unless you like games that are all chance and nothing but rolling dice all night because that is all you do in this game.

Well i will say it is the version they say it is. it just isnt the one in the picture. cover art is different you get all the old tokens and uncles money bag the cards are like the old ones if that answers your question and the board is not the regular bifold its like in quaters. but still same monopoly fun and its great if u need replacement parts for an older 80's/90's version.

I don't understand that - I just got this Scrabble game and a new laptop last November (2012), so it's not that old. Since I don't have the box that the game came in, is Encore the game manufacturer? If so, they probably have a newer version, but trust me the one that I bought from amazon works - I have a Dell laptop - not that it should make a difference.

Geri, I have never played the second edition before, so I'm not really able to speak to that, but do want to say that the original is SO MUCH FUN!!! I would email the game company and ask them. Look forward to what you find out...

I bought it a long time ago and it didn't run on mine, either. But I recently saw it on Steam for a ridiculously low price, downloaded it and had no problems whatsoever. And I am still on Windows 7. Maybe it is something else with your system? Their support is pretty good. I think it lists the requirements on the game's page. I am just about to finish the second one...and my computer crashed. I hope I can fix it but if I have to play the second one from the top, I will. Both are great. The second is even better than the first.

It must be the same as a retail version of the game. When I purchased mine it was exactly like the ones from the stores, and it was a full color edition when it was shipped to me. No real rule changes according to the package either. You just add it to the original Munchkin deck(s) and play on. There are some new twists within the cards themselves, but nothing drastic enough to require a brand new way of playing.

My question exactly. I also really enjoyed The Incredible Machine games and would like to know if this is (1) a worthy successor (2) a blatant rip-off (3) a new twist on an oldie but goodie.

Greed. Pure and simple. The game is apparently not made anymore and folks are trying to cash in on "rareness" or "collectability". I bought one back in 2000 for 7 dollars at Dollar General at a clearance rack. I have played it every day since for at least a few minutes...better than reading the paper on the throne :) I was looking to find another one in case this one wears out and have seen the most horrible prices for them. Even used ones on Ebay are 30 bucks or more and over 100 for ones in the package. Hasbro needs to re-release it (with new word lists and maybe upgraded a little)

My son, to whom this game belongs, says he doesn't think you can get one on a used game. Bear in mind, though, he is 13 and may not know what he is talking about. We have a used game store in our town. If it were me, I'd call that store and see if they had any advice - do you have anything like that where you live?

Hi Kendyl,Yes this is the listing for the "original" larger game. You will see that there is also a statement that there is a newer version - this is the one one you do NOT want to purchase.

Hi Bryan. When I got it it was the Pegasus Spiele with the missprint. I saw the game for 39.99 at coolstuff yesterday.

From my experience of playig both versions, i would say this one is less buggy and glitchy. A lot of time in the regular version i would get stuck in a moutain or tight spot. It was annoying. But i never had any problems like that im this one.
