Everything is here. The stocks, the life tiles, the taxes, the paydays. It is as faithful of a recreation as you could hope for in a game of this kind. Little mini games within the main game can make the whole experience more interesting, but also more time consuming. And let's not forget that in the enhanced mode, you collect your pay from another player, not the bank.
Every move is announced by a guy with a real annoying voice.
Thankfully you can turn him off if you want to. Also the animation of this game is quite good, as you can have a 3-D view of driving to your next square or you can just watch the car move. When you land on a square, you are presented with little CGI cartoons relevant to the square you landed on. These are fun to watch the first 5 times or so, then you will want to turn them off. Thankfully you can.
