Nothing beats Watten, maybe Schnapsen comes near... I'd never play any other card games than those two.
I have no idea what spades is, and I have played Hearts the last time when I was 5 on my dad's computer.
Being a bit ethnocentric, are we..
If you like spades, why not go all the way and graduate to bridge?
I play bridge (and about 20 other games), but it has certain flaws such as a cumbersome and illogical scoring schedule, the bidding taking precedence over the actual play of the cards and no nullos/misere game meaning too many hands are unplayable, so I will never be a bridge-only cardplayer. Furthermore most bridge players take themselves waay too seriously for my taste.
