I'm just here to say that I spent over £100 to get the soundtrack on vinyl and I regret nothing.
One of the best original soundtracks in gaming history.

>>716072972
I mean Ape Escape 1 sucks, I enjoyed 2 but haven't played 3

>>716071191 (OP)
I don't think that's ever even remotely implied
>>716073095
those renders look rough kek

>>716073410
gotta back up a statement like that with your reasons anon

>>716073478
>those renders look rough
They're true to the original. The pressing is good though, and the tunes are all remastered. Sounds incredible out of a well-balanced system.
>>716073410
You suck

>>716071191 (OP)
I think she was the Doctor girlfriend

>>716071191 (OP)
I always saw her as the annoying big sister figure. Spike's real girlfriend is Jake

>>716073682
I didn't finish 1, but the lack of memorable bosses like the freaky monkey 5 made me feel less motivated to keep going

>>716073095
I used to loop Time Station in the miltary when I was the duty officer. Always somebody stopped by the desk and stayed jamming for a while.

>>716073701
>You suck
Why do you like 1 more than 2?

>>716073701
>faithful
>fucks up the eye color
>stripe is on the wrong side of the shirt
could've tried harder to give a shit or just use the original renders if they are just gonna make worse ones

>>716073995
eh thats fair, I personally think those boss fights are shit but they are memorable moments if nothing else
The Jake races and the 100% final boss from 1 is infinitely more enjoyable to me personally
even though Jake isn't a boss until the last stage of the game every time he shows up he's memorable as your rival.
its interesting you found it hard to keep going because of the bosses, the levels were fun and the finale set piece was a breath of fresh air but you didnt get to that from what it sounds like

>>716075207
I may give it another try, I wanna beat 1 before playing 3. I just haven't been willing to play it all over again. I may get on my phone to play it on the go, that would make it better.

>>716072972
rent free

>>716077298
yeah stick with it all the way through its worth it
if you like 2 you'll like 3

>>716073095
you are a cool guy. i also love ape escape's 1 and 3 soundtrack

>>716071191 (OP)
This and Mario 64 are my most hated platformers. Both such boring slogs with the worst camera imaginable.

>>716081121

Ape Escape is a top 10 PSX game

>>716081121
yeah, and every single one of them was "accused" of being my girlfriend
too bad they all grew up ugly

>>716081168
based

Discovered the (mostly complete) Million Monkeys fan translation. Any tips? Seems like a pretty weird game, and I remember anons posting combo webms.

>>716082932
Now that's a cool design, Spike is a cool character. I wish they kept him as the MC

>>716082932
>Any tips?
you can use the face buttons instead of the right stick which saves your thumb
when doing a combo lock on and use your dash boots to close the gap instead of moving with the left stick since you auto move towards who you locked on to
when doing air combos continuously spin the right stick and tap the jump button, it lets you combo in the air
those are the big things anyway
>and I remember anons posting combo webms.
i think that was all me kek

>>716071191 (OP)

no
that's gravity rush kat

Dogshit controller demo

Brown people are not european

Dogshit mod killing the board

>>716083804
What?

>>716083882
The shitty speedrun community and shitty mod is all i can think of when i see Ape Escape, a literal demo for the dualshock.

most disgusting ugly as fuck community to hop on the site, even worse than reddit

>>716071191 (OP)
no but he does get a brunette girlfriend in the PS2 spinoff

>>716072903
Shut the fuck up, nuSnoy

Jerking of to Yumi's dead body

People forget theres a Male protagonist in Ape Escape 3

>>716072903
Boo! Lame.

>>716086532
This is what actually happens when you screw around and chase monkeys all day

3 threads in a row?

>>716089153
Yes

>>716071191 (OP)
Love 1 to death, played it a ton growing up
Played 2 on emulator last year or so, it wasn't bad, pretty solid. Doesn't quite have the charm of 1 but that's pretty impossible to replicate so no big loss
Started 3 but have not finished, it's not bad and the forms are cool but idk. I think maybe I went in expecting more given how many people dickride it super hard (probably just cause of yumi)

>>716091761
The transformations are what endeared 3 to me. Sure, they're easy mode, but they're just fun to use in general. 2 didn't really have anything to set it apart, so I found it pretty bland overall

>>716091761
Just started 2. Is it really just Ape Escape 1 with prettier graphics ?

>>716091761
I'm one of the very few people who prefer 2 over 3, and that's primarily because 2 kept a stronger "stealth gameplay" identity over 3 which is more action game-y.

>Play Spike for1st run
>You don't actually need to catch every monkey to complete a level, only thing that matters is the main missions. Capturing more monkeys gives you more points which gets you higher tier materials for gadget crafting but don't worry about it on your 1st run
>Make sure to get the weapon upgrades but don't bother with trying for custom ones, just check periodically for the premade ones you can make
>For the net, if you hold R3 and let go, you can shoot nets like the Saru Blaster from AE2
>For dash hoop, if you have a non-hoop gadget equipped and then double tap whatever you have hoop bound to, you can activate it for a quick burst. Very useful for combos or dodging
>Get yellow gun and white laser cannon asap. Yellow dash hoop also good. Red gun sucks, yellow laser cannon sucks, red laser cannon good but takes good timing to use well
>For bosses, bring two guns (white + yellow gun is reliable), stun club, and hoop. You'll need the ammo
>Stun Club: L3 + R3 let's you guard. VERY useful, the game also has perfect guard mechanics where you can parry melee attacks if you get one
>Hold the jump button after doing a double jump to do a jetpack hover
>Use your specials very often, there are 4 of them and each one is bound to pressing different pairs of face buttons next to each other like O + X, Square + Triangle etc
>Focus green and red monkeys when you see them
Mission tips
>For M3 (truck), just ignore all the enemies and focus on the truck. For M27 stay on one side
>For the Haruka missions, just run by nearly all the enemies and only kill things that actually attack her
>Final boss spoiler. iirc you need to max out your special meter, then get him to critical HP for when he's about to start healing, THEN do the special move. It's retardedly designed despite the moment being kino
The game takes getting used to and some missions might filter you but I like it
