    Gamers World on Jervis Street have it; It's around 35 quid I think. At least they did last time I was there. It's a bit pricey for what you get but get a big group together and it can be a good laugh.

    For smaller groups that like to stretch their imagination can I suggest looking at "Say Anything" if your looking for party games!

    Another decent party game, but one that gets you thinking is Dixit.

    Each player gets six cards. They all have a drawing on them (pretty strange drawings, one is of a cowboy riding a goldfish while stars hang from strings around him.) One person describes his card, and all the other players have to pick a card that matches the description. They're shuffled and placed face up. Then the players (apart from the describer) have to pick which card is the describers card. If everyone or no-one gets it right the describer gets no points, if some but not all get it right, they and the describer get points. There's a bit more to it but that's the gist. So the game is taking turns as the describer. You want to describe your card in enough detail that some people get it correct, and some don't, while also giving enough clues that the cards other people place on the table will create a bit of confusion to help you. That means you have to get very creative in how you describe the card.

    It's a really fun game. I didn't describe it that well, but once you get your hands on it you'll grok it quickly. And the cards are great, some really amazing artwork on them.
