What about Risk? Great multiplayer game, though granted you can’t really sit down for a quick game of it…

I’ve actually linked all the game titles to overview pages of the respective board games. Worth a read

I don’t have a clue what the fuck is going on whatsoever by looking at the screenshots.

Discuss.

W00t! Yes finally some boardgames, and very good choices. I play Catan and Carcassone on a regular basis with friends and both are very good fun. Alhambra doesn’t ring a bell, but probably follows a similar concept judging the look of things..

Catan is a must buy! looks really great.. Hopefully they make an XBLA game of Axis & Allies.. that would be awesome!

One of my collegues is into board gaming and the other week he was raving about both colonists of catan and carcassonne… so I’ll definately take a look at it when they come out

Awesome. Totally unfamiliar with all 3, but that’s what tutorials are for! Plus, they’re arcade games, so I automatically can’t wait!

I was just in a “game shop” and advised to buy both Settlers of Catan and Carcassonne for my child (age 7) because he would love them and it would help with his thinking. The game looks exactly like the box version in those screen shots. Personally, as long as the price is right … so when will these be portable?

Catan is a really good board game. I’ve never heard of the other two. Will definately buy catan. Advise you all to give it a try.
