The games can be long, but it largely depends how you play. If you play aggressively, every turn you have an opponent in the game is one turn too long, because the object is to bankrupt people. None of this idle conversation junk -- I want to trade, buy, sell, and plot everyone else's demise. That doesn't have to take a long time if everyone in the game plays that way and knows what they're doing. My games.com ID is mbhunter if anyone wants to play :) -- just send an e-mail to info AT mighty-NOSPAM-bargainhunter DoT com.

The best thing about living close to family and having so many nieces and nephews is the ready availability of eager board game players. The only draw back to Monopoly is the length of the game. But it is amazing how many folks opt in to play when you set up the board and issue an invitation :) I LOVE Monopoly.
