¿Question #2440?
jmagnini: computer game that would translate well to a board game

Narlgoth: Dead Rising.
mattimeo84: solitare
SommeGrandads: Computer Chess
Felimid: Europe Ablaze (Apple II game). Aztec (ditto - but not sure how the traps could be implemented). Guad (Apple IIGS game).
Caerid: Oregon Trail. Have they done that yet?
ad79: Age of Bounty
shumby: I've got a game on my iPod touch called Labyrinth that involves rolling a little marble around a plain between walls and traps to a target. That'd be fun as a real board game.

BartowWing: HOMM
artavash: Bloodnet
Kiyote: Star Chamber
The Unbeliever: 42
waza: Donkey Kong
scriptorum: Civilization. Oh wait, that happened. Francis Tresham inspired Sid Meier who inspired Glenn Drover. I wonder now who will create a computer game from Sid Meier's Civilization: The Board Game? That cycle could go on forever..
sffh: transport tycoon
DHEK: I'm thinking that new computer game - Defcon: Everybody Dies seems like a great idea and a natural for a boardgame.
ecobot3001: starcraft might be a cool wargame
POvidiusNaso: Sim city?
themagni: Visual Studio.NET 2005 Professional
Tegre: I don't know if it would translate well, but I wouldn't mind seeing a Manic Mansion boardgame.
eddyspaghetti: pong
spartax: Tamale Loco.
Ebon Wendigo: Heroes of Might and Magic IV
dmomo: I would have said RR Tycoon.. but guess what? Maybe Star Craft, though.
pallidcreatures: How about playing the old classic Sentinel (look it up) using Heroscape land blocks
Cromaa: Warcraft....done...Doom...done...that's about it
Kern: Star Trek Armada II
FrozenHoHos: Why bother.
jasta6: None, there isn't a reliable translator yet, XOOXXXOX OOXOOOXX XOXOOXXO........................................................................
MaksimSmelchak: Space Empires IV.
dwarf: Baldur's Gate.
zombiegod: Chess. Has it been done?

skelebone: I asked this one, and I think people say M.U.L.E. would be a good choice.
MisterCranky: GF1
CDRodeffer: Chess
chaddyboy_2000: This question has been asked way too many times!
gnomehome: The current ones are not really all that good, so I'd say none.
jttm: Quest for Glory
djlg: Microsoft Chess
AlorielLelyn: Apparently Sid Meier's Civilization, but he cheated, since it was originally a board game before it was a computer game. Besides that, I think the tactical battles depicted in Rome: Total War (or any of the Total War series) would translate quite well.
