In an age where technology and graphics are advanced enough that people can basically live in the virtual world (OH HAI MMO-ers), board games still hold their place in this world of entertainment. Nothing is more exciting than competing with your friends over a buncha cards and wooden figures that represent settlements and cities. Welcome to the world of Catan, where domination of land and harvesting of materials is fueled by the thirst to win. In the future kids will boast about how awesome their video games are and how realistic they look. I will reply, "Ya well did you get to build little wooden cities and collect cards that represent resources?" In the world of video games, board games have sadly been neglected. I hope more people can begin to appreciate board games again.

I remember when it snowed during my primary school days, about 10 people would show up at school. We played an old set of Monopoly for the rest of the day. Memories...
