Coming this fall, Hasbro will release a new version of America's favorite boardgame. An electronic version. Complete with its own all-seeing evil tower (hark the Sauron references!). According to the NYTimes, the tower uses infrared light to surveil the entire board. It calculates rent, whose turn it is and where your piece is on the board, and knows exactly how much money you have. It even rolls a virtual dice for you (complete with sound!), The new version of Monopoly also has some new games like a horse race, auctions, a gas tax and the option to upgrade your utilities so they are green. There's no more paper money because everything is stored in a bank card. Gone are the days of hiding your $500...
