I've heard nothing but good things about Pandemic; I'd love to pick up a copy some day.

Everything Wil listed is on my short list. I really need to read more of his work - he's a really interesting cat.

I played Small World at Origins and really liked it. Would have come home with it, but it wasn't available.

Everyone seems to rave about Pandemic, so that one's certainly endured the word-of-mouth trial.

Dominion, like RftG, looks to scratch that CCG itch many of us have (*cough* Jon *cough*) hehe, and I've heard some good word of mouth from friends.

Finally, I wanted to play Revolution! at MepaCon, but ran outta slots, but too much fun is not a problem per se. :)
