The Sims 3 Monopoly (Board Game)

I've had this idea for awhile, and I was thinking about mentioning it here. Has anyone here played the classic board game called Monopoly? Its basically a cut throat competition board game where one player tries to control the board. There are a bunch of different edition. I remember seeing a dog lovers monopoly, monopoly here and now, even a coke lovers Monopoly. They've also had Monopolies based on TV shows, such as the Simpsons, so why not a Sims Monopoly? They could have the properties be different locations from each of the sims games, for example, Strange Town, Sunset Vally, Bridgeport. Instead of houses and hotels, players could build houses and apartments. Than they could change to chance and community chest cards to reflect things in the Sims game as well. Instead of money, players would use Simolieons. If they made a Sims Monopoly, I might consider buying it, and I'm probably not the biggest Sims fan out there. Would you consider buying it, if they made one? In what other ways could the game be changed slightly to reflect the Sims universe? What locations from the Sims 3 or past sims games you would like them to include on the board?

    I'm hooked, I'd buy it.

    Just too easy when it comes to Sims :wink:

    I'd prefer a business game instead. One where my sims could start off with a home business and build it into a global corporation by buying out all homes and businesses in all towns. If my sims are successful, they'll ultimately control all resources and be responsible for providing all good and services to townies and NPC's.

    Along the way, my sims would have to watch out for competitors and make good business decisions to avoid bankruptcy and takeover.

    G01denswan,

    That's an interesting idea, but it would be kind of hard to do with a board game.

    I don't really think it would be very entertaining, it would just seem to easy, it should probably be a little more like the video game, maybe more like The Game of Life... But you can still make it a little differently though. :?

    g01denswan,
    That seems more like a video game, not a board game, but I could see what it would look like. I would definitely buy that game.

    I'd buy it, but since in my group of real life friends and family I'm the only simmer nobody would ever play it with me. So it'd probably sit around collecting dust.... but I'd still buy it.

    Edit: just realized how old this is. I'd still buy it if they ever made it though. :lol: But it seems the idea didn't take off.
