Settlers of Cataan ftw.

Candy Land

We have board games instead of a TV, so we have uncommon ones and actually never play everyday games like those. Settlers of Catan, Race for the Galaxy, Agricola, Empire Builder, etc. are our games of choice.

Definitely Settlers

Balderdash and Settlers!

balderdash, BOGGLE, and settlers of zarahemla (its the mormon version of catan)

Tripoli. (ok, technically not a board game, but still the fav)

I mean, tired. Too tired to see.

Never played Risk till my favorite gaming site (pogo.com) added it. It's my favorite out of those now, though I've yet to play it with an actual board!

Also, for drinking/board games, nothing beats Guess Who?

agricola is amazing and crazy addictive! i take back my previous vote and say agricola instead

Hey, I love most of these games, but what about checkers? Chess? Is today's Woot being sponsored by Hasbro?

I was the first person to vote and it was for Risk which meant risk had 100% of the votes. I expect it to fall in the ranks quick though.
Have you ever played the Lord of the Rings version of Risk? It takes at least twice as long as the original. I had to play it over a week or two to finish (definitely not continuously). I haven't played it since. (It was fun though)

The best game by far (not really a board game) is Jungle Speed
So much fun!

+1
and Taboo
and Trivia Pursuit

Yahtzee

The game of LIFE. Star Wars LIFE is equally as awesome as the original. I can't believe that wasn't a choice!

parcheesi

Dominion all the way. If you really need a board, Settlers

I concur. The question should have been phrased as "Besides the obviously superior LIFE, what is the other favorite board game?"
Going to try out SW LIFE, thanks for the idea.

Catchphrase!!!
who picked those Sirius GPP options...come on. Are any of those really ANYONEs favorites? I mean how sad is your life if the most exciting game you play is Monopoly? (which happens to be the leading vote getter)

Edit: why is WOOT changing the word 'l a m e' to 'Sirius GPP'?

Ditto on Parcheesi and Life.

Arkham Horror is where it's at

Apples to Apples

It is good for Woot.commers, Kids.woot.commers, Wine.woot.commers (really fun), and for Deals.woot.commers.

pay day for me, I also like Tripoli too, and twister!

Settlers of Catan for me. Betrayal at the House on the Hill is a close second though.

Easy. Arkham Horror.

Yeah! Glad I'm not the only one.

Those games are all horrible!

No Stratego love?

Settlers of Catan Always!

Axis & Allies

I Prefer Axis and Allies. When properly set up, it will confuse and agitate your parents into permanently cancelling game night. Which, in turn, will eventually lead to their divorce.(Yes it was your fault after all.)

Gotta go with the classics; nothing beats a good game of chess.

TriBond

Gotta go with Axis & Allies. Almost always lost at it, but it was a fun game.

2) Mutant Chronicles
3) Space Hulk

It is a hard choice between Settlers and Arkham.

Strip Poker FTW!

Settlers of Catan FTW!!!

Yahtzee & Parcheesi
