I have not heard of Descent, or really like the idea of the sci-fi games. I prefer fantasy games as far as roleplay elements, but will look into those mentioned.

I think games like HeroQuest need to make a comeback that offer a complete game in one box, like old D&D boxed sets in a way.

I think all this added buying is hurting games, and trying to think of a way to make something like HeroQuest work again.
Descent, the fantasy game, is astonishingly good. There are a bunch of expansions for it; the most recent allows a campaign game that is played in about hour-long sessions that can go for quite a long time indeed.

Cheers!
