The funniest game you´ve ever played

From a purely subjective standpoint, I would have to say Saints Row: The Third. Eleven hours of shit-up-the-nose comedy translated into real-world lolz.
Then again, I was in a state of deep depression at that time, so watching a funny Youtube lp-ier play through Happy Wheels would probably have left me laughing just as much.

The first three Monkey Island games were hilarious.
Guybrush: "Can I call you Bob?"
Murray: "You may call me Murray! I am a powerful demonic force! I am the harbinger of your doom! And the forces of darkness will applaud me as I stride through the gates of hell carrying your head on a pike!"
Guybrush: "Stride?"
Murray: "Alright then, roll! Roll through the gates of hell! Must you take the fun out of everything?"
(Background for those who haven't played Monkey Island 3: Murray is a talking skull and Guybrush Threepwood (awesome name, by the way) is the protagonist.)
Also the dark humour in Fallout 3 and New Vegas. Though they might be funnier if, like me, you are a really big fan of those games.

Another vote for Monkey Island, any of the first 3.
Love the pirate song:

Also the text adventure "Bureaucracy" by Douglas Adams is hilarious.

I think 'Gulpy Gulpy' takes my personal prize, although I was left afterwards with no brain cells whatsoever.
For non- braindeath- inducing games, Portal and Portal 2, for GLaDOS' brilliant humour.
"I suppose we can put our differences aside. For science. You monster."

Hmmmmmm three way split between Portal 2, No more heroes and Psychonauts
I would say portal 2 takes the cake because I was playing it in a room full of non-gamers and they all just laughed over and over again.
oh and honorable mention goes to twisted pixel games those are all really funny

Resident Evil 1 is funny to listen to, just because the dialogue is so damn bad.
But for a legitimately funny game, i'd say Portal 1+2. Probably mostly because of Cave Johnson.
"The lab boys just informed me that I should not have mentioned the control group, they're telling me I ought to stop making these pre-recorded messages - that gave me an idea: make more pre-recorded messages. I pay the bills here, I can talk about the control group all damn day!"

It's Monkey Island 2, but very close before The Secret of Monkey Island. The reason why the second game wins is it's great conclusion about philosphy:

So much mainstream stuff here! The real laughs are in the freeware obscure stuff!
I present to you Escapist, Murder Dog IV: Trial of the Murder Dog. It's basically a phoenix wright type game with a lot of really dark humor in it. It's also got quite a lot of satire but it still made me laugh a lot.
Link if you wanna go play it: http://gamejolt.com/freeware/games/adventure/murder-dog-iv-trial-of-the-murder-dog/5807/
Also the obvious choices, Portal, Sam and Max, Strong Bad and the like.
