@cynical13 --
I own or am familiar with all of those games that you mentioned.
Bohnanza is the game I've given away more times than any other, and I'm on my eleventh copy (and I have another shrink wrapped copy on standby).
@jeffowski Gotcha. Wasn't sure what you did already have, just based suggestions on what wasn't on your list.
How about Red Dragon Inn? Betrayal at the House on the Hill? Vegas Showdown? Munchkin (I'd be shocked if you weren't)?
@cynical13 -- Yup to all. I have quite an extensive collection of games (a shadow of its former size).
I'm particularly fond of a Red Dragon Inn spin-off called, "Gambling? I'm in!"
It is very meta. This is a game you can play inside Red Dragon Inn.
It actually reminds me of the Bohnanza "expansions," where it is a special deck where you can play many different games custom to that deck. Bohnanza "Expansions" are just totally different games utilizing the base Bohnanza deck.

It's a lot of the new games since 2010 that I'm interested in adding to the collection.
I sort of stopped collecting anything after that point.
I have a first edition of Ra, Chinatown, Puerto Rico, first english printings of Catan, etc.
The old shit I've got.
It's all the new stuff that flew in after I stopped paying attention.

@jeffowski It's difficult to keep up because of the quantity and the dollar value. Games aren't cheap. Also my tolerance for complicated rule sets is pretty much nil. Any more, we go to the game store and ask for games with simple rules that are easy to pick-up.

Well, I've been on the BoardGameGeek.com board game list rankings, gone through the Spiel des jahres lists, etc.
I stopped collecting in 2010 because the backlog of good Eurogames and games in general had caught up and it seemed that crappy games were starting to be made.
Good to see the solid games are still around, but there hasn't been any really good games that are different.
Do I need another worker placement game? I have Lords of Waterdeep, Stone Age, and Puerto Rico.
