Is this the funniest game ever made?

I mean. No. Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion: Todd's Day Out will likely never be beaten in that regard, but a lot of games TRY to be funny. Jazzpunk comes to mind, a game I was told was very funny and fun but I found to be neither. Some games are funny, but not "fun". More exercises in joke telling, like The Stanley Parable.

This game, however is both fun and funny. You can speculate on illicit biocurrencies. Eminently quotable lines. The life bar may be one of the funniest HUD elements I've ever seen. But you also can go sicko mode with speed upgrades and intestinal-spiderman slinging to pull off sick 360 no-scopes on mayors in crowded malls. You might get REAL nausea playing this, which is both funny and fun.

I knew I was going to like this game, but I had no idea I was going to LOVE it.
