Online multi-player board game/game show games?

So Something Awful's got a Gaming Jeopardy thing going on right now, and now I've got this hankerin' for all the good ol' boardgame and gameshow classics. Problem is, every hit I get on google is some kind of shitty integrated single-player thing or requires you to sign up to a service or some other kind of bullshit. Now this being the internet and all, I just know that there've got to be a whole shitload of open-source home-brewed clients that change themselves just enough to skirt copyright infringement lawsuits while still retaining all that stuff that makes those games and shows of yore so awesome, even if it's buried under a load of the aforementioned bullshit in searches.

So what've you got, G&T? What do you use to sate that board game/game show craving?

    There are a bunch of great board games up on XBLA. Settlers, Carcassonne etc.

    WiiWare has a TV game-show-style game, but I'm not quite sure how good it is.

    XBLive is going to have the 'PrimeTime' service sometime in the fall, which you'll be able to play gameshows and whatnot on. Supposedly.

    All that's announced is 1vs100.

    They should totally try and get You Don't Know Jack.

    Can we get the chemicals in. 'Cause anything's better than this.
