Replacing your archaic board game collection

Boardgames are growing in popularity, with Wil Wheton's TableTop show and TableTop Day getting the word out to a different audience that boardgames aren't just for Sunday afternoons with your parents.

I like video games, in particular ones that I can play with friends in the same room. Unfortunately less and less companies are making these type of games so I now turn to board games. They provide many games for both competitive and cooperative play so that my friends and I can sit down and enjoy a game together.

The games that most people own are probably ones that you either don't enjoy playing any more or are so simple that they lack any competitive enjoyment. I hope to enlighten you with some alternative options to refresh your dusty old pile of games and to get you back into doing something that is both enjoyable and sociable.
