It is arguably one of the worlds most popular games
Everyone knows it, almost every house has a copy of it and if they don't they know someone who does. There's hardly a ten year old who hasn't played it to some extent.
However i know many an adult who really can not stand it for a number of reasons but aside from being one of them myself, the games history and interpretations are really quite interesting.
I'm not goin to write a big long blog on it myself because others have already written the material, what i'm going to do is accumulate the interesting articles here on one location.
