What do you guys think about funny/comedic games?

I think humour can be done right, if it isn't used a lot, or if it is used a lot, but at random times.

So for example, GTA4 has hilarious radio stations, and people, it has a lot of this, but you don't hear it all at once, or one after the other, so it doesn't get old.

Left 4 Dead is also like GTA4, since it has funny things, but only during events or when the characters just talk to each other.

A game like Portal has a sort of mix that is funny (GLaDOS during the first Portal), that you can understand is funny (Wheatley making jokes), and the bits that aren't funny, but will make the casuals laugh (Cave Johnson's Lemon Speech).

I love humour in games when it takes me by surprise, or it's just something stupid that is funny, but when it's excessively put on, it's not funny.
