The Laser Cats are back, but this time they’re in a videogame and actually funny.
The “Laser Cats” sketch has gotten pretty played out on Saturday Night Live, not that that’s stopped the show from continuing to keep on making new performances. Even though the concept isn’t that funny on TV anymore, it still has the potential to spread some laughter elsewhere, like Team Fortress 2.
A custom map in Team Fortress 2 featured an unlockable sequence where giant feline cardboard cutouts rose out of the ground and started firing lasers at all the players. While players were confused by the situation at first, you can hear them laughing and loving the epic nature of the scenario.
“The Kittygeddon was indeed set up by me,” said YouTube user Thecorp303, “and named ‘achievement_all_v4’ was released on my server under the name of ‘House of matsys_regressiontest’ (later renamed ‘Grind for stuff’) starting June 19th and ran it once every day until I posted this video. In the future I might make some tutorials on Map-based particles.”
Personally, I think it’s kind of awesome that a user in TF2 was able to take something that was never terribly funny from Saturday Night Live and make it a riot.
