I'm going to be voting for Goat Simulator all the way through. It's the most ridiculous concept ever and caters perfect to this. No idea if the game itself is funny.

I voted for both Disgaea games and, more importantly, Tales from the Borderlands. The latter is definitely the funniest game I’ve ever played. It had me laughing out loud multiple times. I hate that Telltale went away despite having produced games of this quality as just one example of a great game from their library.

Portal has great modern comedic sensibilities. Space Quest has great retro wry writing. Stanley has a good mix of both.

More classics here. I'm not going to mess with the Borderlands stuff. I played enough of Borderlands 2 to get a feel for the humour, but I didn't play enough to let it sink in its hooks. Maybe next time.

These ones are the best because they start with a silent P. Portal 2 is wonderful largely because I can only imagine they set Stephen Merchant free to improvise. Ol' Cave was pretty good in it too.
