Im in NY, never ever heard of a board game called that......

aka designer games

Seriously, Ive never heard them called anything but board games?

Monopoly, Mousetrap, scrabble, trivial pursuit - board games, right?

A board game is a board game, but so-called designer games are much more than that. There are all kinds of designer board games too.

Talisman is a good example. This game has been around for years and is in it's 4th edition. There are multiple expansions to the game as well. The link to this game, boardgamegeek.com, is a great place to find games like I am talking about.
