I have a huge collection of boardgames too...
Nothing beats the entertainment you can get from a weekend with good friends over boardgames like Diplomacy, Republic of Rome, Kings and Things etc.
Recent years has seen some incredible games. This genre is NOT in its deaththroes due to computers as many people think.
My favorite game of all time is "Go". It is the simplest game imaginable and at the same time one of the most complex.
Emanuel Lasker(famous chessplayer) said that if he had discovered Go before Chess he would have played Go. He also remarked that if there is intelligent life somewhere else in the universe they know Go, but not chess.. the rules are really that universal in Go. Stunnningly beautiful game to.
