Personaly, I find it to be MGS3. It's not set out to be a humerous game overal but when great characters find them in funny situations/dialogues it's so much stronger.
I have litterary catched myself laughing out loud many times during that game and where I whished I had a video camera or sometime to tape the moment in the game. So amazing.

 

[the year 20XX]

Space Quest V.

And to support that, I'll provide no examples or screenshots.

 

[bitwise]

secret of monkey island 2

i thought the bards tale was pretty funny too.

 

[Geek]

I found Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga to be quite amusing.

And humorous.

Or humerous.

 

[Liquid]

[Cerebral Palsy]

Earthbound
Mario & Luigi
Conker

 

[the year 20XX]

The opening dialog of Castlevania: SoTN had me rolling....DIE MONSTER!!!

This dialog is one of my favorite scenes in any game, ever.

"Mankind ill needs a savior such as yOOUuu."

The little glass arcs out of Dracula's hand when he says "What is a man?" :lol :lol :lol

Does anyone have a video of this scene? I love it.

 

[Jumpman Jr.]

Can't think of one. How about a tie among Typing of the Dead, Katamaris, Bangi-o, Incredible Crisis, Cubivore, SpaceQuests, and lots of Infocom games?

Monkey Island (1/2/3)

Haggis McMutton: Me given name is 'Heart-Liver-And-Kidneys-Boiled-In-The-Stomach-Of-The-Animal McMutton.'
Guybrush Threepwood: Oh, so your parents were expecting a girl, then.
Haggis McMutton: Aye.

 

[El_Victor]

LeChuck: I... am your brother!
Guybrush Threepwood: No! No, that's not true!
LeChuck: Search your feelings, you KNOW it to be true!
Guybrush Threepwood: Noooooooooooooooooooo!

Not so funny anymore perhaps, but when it came out.. I had a great time.

State of emergency

 

[Luckett_X]

Bangai-O was pretty damn funny due to the engrish and... well acceptance of it being a game. "Are you the boss?!"

MGS3 did make me laugh due to Snakes incredibly overacted voice, especially when he started ranting about that gun he was carving for CQC purposes. I thought he was going to start masturbating furiously.

 

[Flynn]

I think were talking about intentional humor here.

Psychonauts
Mario and Luigi

 

[Almighty_Chocobo]

I would pay $100 for a new Monkey Island game

 

[Gribbix]

Mario and Luigi
Giants: Citizen Kabuto

 

[Victrix]

MGS3 did make me laugh due to Snakes incredibly overacted voice, especially when he started ranting about that gun he was carving for CQC purposes. I thought he was going to start masturbating furiously.

:lol :lol :lol

The word CQC was mentioned in that game approximately 5048^10 times

Discussion of it consumed half of the DVD

 

[LakeEarth]

Most didn't like Escape from Monkey Island, but I laughed my ass off at the part where you had to get the dunce cap. I was crying.

 

[Warm Machine]

Full Throttle

 

[tahrikmili]

Monkey Island I/II
Sam and Max Hit the Road
Day of the Tentacle

a three way tie. Lucasarts ftw.

 

[Tarazet]

Psychonauts. Just stand next to any two kids and listen to them for as long as you like - awesome!

Snake: The feeding ramp is polished to a mirror sheen. The slide's been
reinforced. And the interlock with the frame is tightened for added precision.
The sight system is original, too. The thumb safety is extended to make it
easier on the finger. A long-type trigger with non-slip grooves. A ring
hammer... The base of the trigger guard's been filed down for a higher grip.
And not only that, nearly every part of this gun has been expertly crafted and
customized. Where'd you get something like this?

 

[HomerSimpson-Man]

Haha, Snake was a bit too excited with that gun. It was indeed funny. It was like a kid with a brand new toy........












.............a toy in which the kid wanted to masturbate off.

He's a gun geek, but a funny one. His little conversation with Ocelot about his gun was funny too

Snake: It's a nice gun, I'll give you that. But the engraving gives you no
tactical advantage whatsoever. Unless you were planning to auction it off as a
collector's item. And you're forgetting one more very basic thing... You don't
have what it takes to kill me.

Ocelot: We'll see!! (he pulls the trigger but nothing happens. He is out of
ammo) !

(Eva frees herself and roundhouse kicks him, sending him flying off the
platform. She jumps off and lands on her motorcycle. Ocelot tries to stop her
but Eva does a back flip on her bike, hitting Ocelot squarely in the face and
flooring him. Eva catches his knife on its way down)

Snake: 6 shots...

Ocelot: ?

Snake: That thing only carries 6 shots. The Makarov carries 8. You have to get
a feel for how many you have left. (Ocelot recovers his gun) This is a high
class weapon. It's not meant for shooting people.

 

[BigBoss]

MGS3: so many hilarious conversations with Paramedic, Sigint, and Major Zero on the radio.

Spoiler

The cutscene with Snake and Eva "wrestling" in the cave was :lol .

 

[Rlan]

I've played through a little of Discworld II recently, and found some of the dialogue hilarious. Real Terry Pratchet / Monty Python Humor.

Metal Arms is pretty funny too. Grunk(?) constantly swearing in his Dan-Castelnetta-Krusty voice is great.

 

[Koshiro]

Grim Fandango.

And yes, as a result of that game I really do want Psychonauts.

 

[Crow]

Armed and Dangerous

 

[Rahul]

I think FFXI is the most "Hume"rous game.

 

[Taichu]

Mischief Makers had some funny dialogue and scenes.

The complete ending with

Spoiler

Prof. Theo going gaga over human Marina

was really awesome.

 

[bycha]

Sam and Max Hit The Road.

Early Lucasarts quests lead the way. And I don't see who can beat them.

 

[GitarooMan]

That is some funny stuff. I laugh every time I read those lines.

- the whole 'box' conversation

- Raikov

 

[Greenpanda]

I think FFXI is the most "Hume"rous game.

Tee hee.

 

[Mejilan]

Humorous?

Recently, Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door.

 

[Rorschach]

In recent memory: Psychonauts.

 

[Tarazet]

In recent memory: Psychonauts.

You are right. Meji is too. But I just realized there was nothing in the OP about it necessarily being a recent game... so I'll also toss in a nod to Skullmonkeys (PS1) and Panic! (Sega CD).

 

[Mejilan]

Yeah, I narrowed it down for my own choice. Humor tends to fade with memory, or get distorted by that awesome force known only as 'Nostalgia'.

 

[DCharlie]

Phoenix Wright (the first 4 cases)

"I'd like to see her pull it off"

"Oh, i bet you are thinking "I'd like to see her pull it off". Mr Wright, so many men have stood before me and said they thought i couldn't pull it off, but i try and try, and i always manage it"

(or something to that akin)

 

[Dagless M.D.]

Grim Fandango

 

[Azih]

Psychonauts.

The game got progressively wierder and funnier as the game went on but even then one of the best lines come in early.


"You'll have plenty of time to stand around when you're dead!"

Edit: "Oh no Gogglor! Not the Mattress Factory!"
