We've all been there on Christmas afternoon when the family get-together rapidly descends into a breaking apart and it's at times like this that the traditional board game comes into play, uniting people across the dining table with fun, skill and tactics galore. Well, that's the theory anyway…
The problem with board games is twofold in my experience; either some of the bits are missing or the official "reading of the rules" ceremony takes far too long and ends up with - you guessed it - another argument. Offering a potential solution to this predicament is the aptly titled Hasbro Family Game Night, a compendium of six traditional board games on one shiny Wii disk."

"This week, Xbox LIVE Gold members can get the following Hasbro Family Game night titles for 50% off."
This is the second time this deal has come around so if you didn't get the games the first time now would be a time to complete the collection. Suprised I haven't seen any deals on MS point cards. I think the main reason for this sale is that the new FGN3 is not coming to XBLA, at least it hasn't been announced. Personally I have played the new one and would not buy more than Life, Yahtzee Hands Down, and maybe Mouse Trap. Definately not worth the full disc price. Sorry Hasbro but bad move leaving the FGN XBLA fans in the dust.
