If you're looking for boardgame videos, try Dicetower. For general library reference, there is always BoardgameGeek. The "Geek" also has card game, computer game, and RPG game site variants.

I am interested in learning more about it and will check out the links.
I'm not sure if it is my cup of tea but I'd like to give it a try.
Never know it might surprise me and be a bunch of fun.

I was in the city about a month ago trying to track down a WoW calendar for this year.
On my way to EB Games, I noticed my search had also come up with a place called Gamezilla
that was along the way so I decided to stop and check it out.

Turned out it had very little video games and a lot of board games.
The counter guy was very friendly and helpful and we talked at length.
I was able to ask and learn a bit about board gaming.

He said it was quite popular in the area and they held the team games in the store.

Now, I'm thinking, I'm new to this part of the country, just moved here last March
and this might be an excellent way to meet people and make some friends.
I think once spring comes and I can count on the weather (I live out in the boonies)
I'll come into the city, try to find someone that will take me under their wing
and help me learn about board gaming.

Here is a link to the store. I tested it out and it appears to work.
You can up/down scroll the sidebar on left to see photos of the store
and people set up on tables playing and looking pretty intense.
Let me know if it works for you...
