Man, my childhood was all about board games and I never even HEARD of those other than Hero Quest (which I've never played).
My experience is more along the lines of WWII and railroad board games:
War at Sea
Axis & Allies (all THREE versions, I bet none of you know about the first one)
Victory in the Pacific
Shogun (AKA Samurai Swords)
Civilization (not Sid Meier) and Advanced Civilization
Rail Baron (AWESOME and apparently super rare because the publisher got bought out and the new owner refuses to reprint even though used copies go for like $70-100)
"Empire Builder" series (Nippon Rails, Eurorails, Iron Dragon, Lunar Rails, etc. Ironically I have yet to play the original version, Empire Builder.)
I got it from my Dad who's really into it.
1776 (he regularly wins national tournaments)
Advanced Third Reich
And then there's classic stuff like CAREERS. Oh, and obviously Monopoly, Risk, etc. I kick ass at Connect Four.

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.
