Looney Labs is releasing a Monty Python-themed version of their Fluxx card game in September. Since the rules and objectives of Fluxx are constantly changing within the game, that should be a pretty good fit with Monty Python.

Do You Worship Cthulhu? is a board game released by Toy Vault designed for 5-30 people. According to Toy Vault’s description of the game,
This fun party game for a group of 5-30 people to play, and the rules can be learned in less than 3 minutes.

Deceive your friends and lie through your teeth while experiencing a truly unique game.
Basically Werewolf with a Cthulhu skin.

World of Warcraft Collectible Miniatures Game
I haven’t even had time to sort and organize all of my World of Warcraft cards from the CCG when Upper Deck goes ahead and announces a collectible World of Warcraft Miniatures Game.
Monster Island
Monster Island is a set of tabletop rules for giant monster combat. Grab some toy monster figures off the shelf, use the monster creation rules to design your monster of choice, and then fight it out for supremacy.
This game is very well done and is a great example of the advantages of PDF publishing for niche game products. There are numerous expansions and supplements on the Monster Island site that take the game in pretty much every direction a giant monster game should go — robots, human armies, alien invaders, etc.
Watch out, Tokyo Tower, here we come.
