I grew up in the 60's and I think that was the Hay Day for Board Games. My favorite Board Game was without a doubt .... CandyLand!!!

I remember playing Life, Monopoly and Battleship the most.
I do not have the Life game anymore. Not sure what happened to it.
But my parents still have the Monopoly and Battleship games.
Recently found the Battleship games at a second hand store. It was the same age as the one we have...so I got it and we were able to actually have the full set now.
Over time the biggest battleship disappeared from our set.
I prefer that way of playing Battleship over the new electronic ones. Granted, it's harder to cheat now, but still :)

We remember Battleship. Havent seen that though in all the sales we have been too so great find!!!

Just found at a sale, Candyland, Pin the Tail, Peter Pan, Benji and we have a ton more to list. The problem is the size of some of the games. Its about the same to ship one as 3 times the cost; you can ship a ton but would someone buy a box filled of old games?

Do you guys know they are making a movie based on Battleship? It sounds like a horrible idea, but then again Clue is one of the funniest movies ever so we'll see...

I don't have any of my board games from when I was little but I loved: Clue, Life, Monopoly, Battleship, this one Star Wars game I had from when the first movie came out so I think it was just called Star Wars. You played as either Luke/Leia or Han/Chewie and the object was who escaped the Death Star first.

Does connect Four count?
