More than five million on-line players found this autumn the way in the Browser game Monopoly city Streets. At the beginning of the month operator Hasbro finished the play events suddenly and left behind thousands of disappointed players.
Hasbro has not conceded only three-month lifetime - any more to the browser play. Enthusiastically millions monopolists rushed at the beginning of September in persistente Browsergame Monopoly city Streets. About Google Maps users could buy every street of the world and fill with houses.

A bright spot remains: Should a Micro Payment system on the legs be put and the problems from the test be repaired, nothing more is in way of a new Monopoly play on the Internet.
