Worms is good as far as video games go. And Samba De Amigo if you have a DC and Maracas.

For "analog" games, Pictionary with a big white board is fun.
Also, True Colors if you have a small group.
My family often also plays Taboo and Bohnanza. We also throw Crokinole in here and there, but the board is a bit...large.
Oh and my parents are really partial to the Star Wars: Epic Duels game, but it's really not a party game.

"Psychiatrist" is another good social game, but you really can only play it once...once everyone understands it, it's kinda pointless.

Quarters. On the table at my house (100% oak), I am untouchable unless I get both of the glasses passed to me at the same time.

How do you play that?

you have two shot glasses on a table (or more if you have more than 7 people). The object is to bounce a quarter off the table and into the shot glass. If you get it in once, you can pass it to the person to your right, or you can go for multiples...
Two in a row is a "reverse". The shot glass goes in the other direction for the round... so it "naturally" go to the left from then on, until either the round ends or it gets reversed again.
Three is a row is a reverse, but it skips one player... so it is passed two to your left.
Four in a row is nothing
Five in a row means everyone drinks, until the guy who shot five in a row stops.

If you get it in on your first shot, you can pass it two to the right (assuming it has not been reversed, then it would be two to the left).

Now, then, the round ends when either someone gets five in a row, or two shotglasses are in front of one person at the same time. If you have two glasses in front of you, you have to drink until whoever passed the second glass to you tells you to stop. For the next round, the shooters are the person who just lost, and whoever is across from them. If there is an odd number of people playing, the shortest gap is towards the loser...
