Persona 4.

[speedlolita]

I can't really think of any games that are genuinely funny if I'm honest.

a few of the funniest games i remember in no order

monkey island series
giants citizen kabuto
armed and dangerous
portal
conkers bad fur day
borderlands (well made me laugh in several places)
earthworm jim
day of the tentacle
grim fandango
deathspank

NiGHTS.

I expected Conker's Bad Fur Day and Monkey Island to feature prominently. I always got a laugh out of Broken Sword, and I only played a little of it (the disc was knackered!), but Eric Idle's performance Discworld got some chortles out of me.


Just for my benefit, could people being sarcastic mark their posts with /sarcasm? I don't want to be buying NiGHTS off ebay expecting a laugh riot!

[J0e Musashi]

It is not the USA Sorrel.

[noobish hat]

No, it's the internet!

[nakamura]

Actually Persona 2 has also been pretty funny.

[Brad]

Lot of humor in the Disgaea games.

Day of the tentacle

[noobish hat]

Resi 1 has a lot of comedy gold in it.

[nakamura]

Resi is more accidental!

[randombs]

I'm sure the guys at Capcom knew exactly what they were doing

NiGHTS.

Deadly Premonition
Conker's Bad Fur Day

[Wools]

Portal 2 is my favourite funny game as not only is the script brilliant on its own, but the acting sends it right out of this world. Fable 2 had some brilliantly funny and absurd comedy in it that I really enjoyed, the Liverpool accented gargoyles stole the show. “You wanker!”

The last game that really made me laugh was Rayman Origins, not because of a witty script or funny acting, but simply down to the animations of the characters. Sliding down a hillside in the loading screen or standing on each other’s heads was joyous, and it consistently made me laugh when I played it on own my own, with my brother or with my girlfriend.
