MONOPOLY announced it goes directly to jail

Earlier this morning, EA and Hasbro announced that MONOPOLY would be headed to all gaming platforms including the Xbox 360, but probably not how we all expected.

MONOPOLY the video game, inspired by the MONOPOLY HERE & NOW World Edition board game, is set for release sometime this Fall and is one of those games that would be suited perfectly for the XBLA. But after reading the press release, we're under the impression that the game will in fact be a retail (and full priced) release. Boo! Boo! Boo! Also, per the release, it says that you'll be able to play MONOPOLY in "offline single or multi-player mode". No online multiplayer? Double boo to you EA! Go directly to jail, do not pass Go and do not collect our $59.99.
