A subjective sense of enjoyment that can be brought out by any number of things (i.e. accomplishment, satisfying mechanical feedback, an interesting story, enjoyable graphics or music, etc.)

If you forget that you're even alive when you're playing a game, then its fun.

R is responsiveness of input
F is the flexibility of players ability to manipute game's output (i.e. "game mechanics")
D is difficulty
B=B++ is a breaking point of becoming bored (grows with time)
V is variety is presented challenges and mechanics
Then sense of accomplishment S is:
S = (R*F)/((B/V)-D)
{s1,s2....sN} - tetriary elements (graphics, story, music, atmosphere etc)

Amount of Fun = ((dS/dt)dt)+avg{}
