      Don't knock them until you try them. I get more enjoyment out of a day of boardgames with my wife and friends than I've had with any videogame released in the last two years.

        "Hardcore". I play about 10 times a year, if that. They're just fun games. Nothing hardcore about them, they're just immensely more satisfying than what you find at Target & Wal-Mart (aka, any American board games).

        I mean, you never considered those stores the best place to find high quality items of a certain type, why would it be true for board games? It's just run-of-the-mill boring stuff there.

        Go to Amazon and pick this up for cheap, it's like the Super Mario Bros. of board games: it's fun, it's still good after all these years, and it gets you into other, better boardgames.

          I never did. I was just making a joke that only OS would have people getting called out for having to step their board gaming up.

                Monopoly and nothing else is even close. As a family we would play Monopoly about every other Sunday evening growing up.

                      Was going to start a thread about board games but search found this discussion.

                      Favorite board game by far currently is Battlestar Galactica. A more recent favorite is Pandemic, and we just recently played Twilight Imperium for the first time last weekend... Want to get the expansions but apparently I'd have to pay over $150 for one of them, guess I'll be waiting for a reprint or something.

                            It's a great drinking game! There's even several tutorial videos on YouTube on how to play. Check it out.

                              Apba Baseball and Strat-o-Matic Football. Every year me and my dad play a season of Apba Baseball (I play as the Nats). Even though I'm in college now, we are going to try to play a season over the summer. One game only takes about 15 minutes and is extremely fun.

                                I cannot get any of my friends or family to play board games and it frustrates me for some reason. I enjoyed Monopoly as a kid, but would always get pissed when I went broke. That's about the only board game I got to play with some consistency.

                                My brother and I had this Flintstones board game, but we started cheating at it and my aunt took it away lol.
