I absolutely love Monopoly--if I'm having a good game, that is. If things are starting to go downhill then it's just agonizing to watch the money slip away. Watching it pour in, however, is always a joy!
Chutes and Ladders and Candyland are a couple of retro favs....Life is an awesome game...I think that about covers the boards.
On the compy I like the Age of Empires games, Pharoah is awesome, The Sims and Sim City are most excellent...Shogun total war is fabulous (when my stupid brother lets me play it...ggrrrr)
As far as video games go, I'm a Nintendo 64 girl. I like pretty much all racing games and stuff like that. Diddy Kong is so much better than Mariokart, just so you all know. Zelda is the best game ever. I've become addicted to Goldeneye recently. I used to not be good at it, but practice makes perfect. I mean, it's really not hard--you see someone, you shoot them, you win...rocket science is definitely not involved, lol.
