These stupid-looking "sets" are new from LEGO. Personally I think they look pretty ugly and stupid.
What do you peoples think?

I totally agree with you, those look really stupid.

Those 'Lego Game' minifigs look like thimbles.
I would not want those games, but I did buy the heads from the Monsters game off Bricklink. 
@Ark11Yeah, I agree with you on that. 
One thing I can't stand is the way the "minfigures"' heads are. They aren't compatible with regular minifigures at ALL. (Or any other part of the figures for that matter )
EDIT: some sort of interview with the guy who's responsible for the new "LEGO Games": http://games.lego.com/en-us/News/ReadMo … ?id=166888

I think they look pretty cool.
I like the lego games. They have a good idea behind them. And they're done quite well. Lego is about creativity, so quit whining that they don't look exactly like you wanted.
Here's an interesting quote from the interview.
The concept of a breakable, changeable, rebuildable game is the central conceit of the entire range. LEGO’s tagline for the games is ‘Build - Play - Change’ and the game rules themselves contain an explicit challenge to players to do just that. The players are actively encouraged to change the board or the dice, to break the rules; to not just play the game, but to play with the game.
I think you're right about the idea, CK.

You guys are missing the point. They're not meant to be traditional LEGO sets - they're meant to be customizable board games. It's a bit premature to criticize them if you haven't played them.
I also think the microfigures are pretty neat for building microscale creations, but different strokes for different folks.
Well, at least they offer an avant Garde possibility.
These games look pretty interesting. I was pretty surprised when I saw them in the newest catalog. The only one I would personally buy though is the Minotaur one.
I'm only getting them for the pieces. Creationary offers bricks, and the monster game offers the pumpkin,werewolf(I think it's a werewolf?), and devil heads.
the games look pretty good, and there are lots of cool parts, but I absolutely HATE the microfigures. they just dont look good with any other lego thing. At first I thought the heads at least were cool, but i heard someone say on here that they aren't minifig compatible!
The microfigs can maybe be used as minifig babies! 
How terrible it is to have more options available.
LEGO Board games?
I am intrigued.
I've already got one (they've been out for ages in Europe) and played it. They're really clever - even those board games that re based on existing ones (Pirate's Code is clearly a pirate version of Mastermind) have a little twist in them.
I'm not going to take it apart for animation, because that's like stealing the money from Monopoly.
Minifig Babies have already been made
lol.
I don´t like the games, my sister has got the pyramid thing. It has pretty awesome parts like dark tan bricks.
