Monopoly. I like it because:

1. It's a really long game.

2. With a bit of creative rule modding you can totally change the game.

3. The concept of getting to become insanely rich is very alluring.

I like monopoly but mostly because its a game of persuasion. I'm highly competitive, and always trying to make impossible deals happen in that game. Which is why I love it.
