I would bet that the majority of gamers did not even realize that you could push either of the analog sticks in and it acts as a button press.
To me, this is a great feature because I feel that the analog controllers have not been fully utilized. The game will not play without an analog controller. You could still use the old d-pad to control your actions (why anyone would still be using this is beyond me). Up until now, analog controllers were always a luxury but not a necessity. Get used to using this thing because without it, you will just be wandering around with nothing to do.īefore I get into any more of the gameplay, I feel that I should mention that this is the first title to require an analog controller. Actually it is a time net that warps the monkeys back to the time station. Yep, that is right-you capture the monkeys in an oversized butterfly net. There is plenty of jumping, climbing, swimming, flying and shooting going on, not to mention some monkey netting. It follows the free roaming formula allowing you to feel that you are actually immersed in the game environment. GameplayĪs I mentioned above, Ape Escape is a 3D platform game. All that really matters is that you will travel to a ton of different locales trying to bag you some monkeys.
Like most games these days, this one has a typically lame story that involves a time machine, a scientist and some kids. Okay, maybe you will start to get a little tired of chasing the damn monkeys after about number 125 or so, but if you invest that much time you might as well see it out to the end. Ape Escape is a 3D platform game at its roots, but adds plenty of other novelties to keep the game fresh from start to finish.
