Kino fucking game, prefer the first one over 2 and 3 even if the gameplay is solid in the whole trilogy

So what's wrong with Ape Escape 2? People here keep saying that it's shit compared to 1 and 3 but it seems fine so far.

Largely due to generic monkey music rather than 1 and 3's jungle. Gameplay-wise, it's just fine.

I don't think anyone considers it shit, just that doesn't hold up to the others in terms like generic music and level themes.

It's not the original one and it doesn't have the loli so people don't talk about it.

gameplay wise it suffers in the second half with 3 filler gadgets and level design takes a nosedive
music wise it doesn't have the jungle the series is known for which kills presentation
those are the big ones anyway
despite all that i still like it

Presentation-wise, the definitive AE1 experience. Gameplay-wise, you do lose a bit from only having a single stick but surprisingly not much.

It’s not shit but it’s not as good as 3 and it’s not the original. It’s just for the forgotten middle child.

Eh, kinda but... not really...
Yes, you use the second stick to do things, but there isn't much nuance to it. If gadgets were more complex and could do more than one thing by using different motion inputs, it'd be integral to the gameplay and thus impossible to replicate on a single-stick console, but with things like dash hoop doing the same thing every time and needing a single input, and directional things (other than radar and car) stopping you dead anyway, using just a button and, where applicable, left stick, just like every other game, works just fine. Stationary radar still works perfectly fine, and while running alongside the RC car to solve some puzzle would be fun it's never actually used anywhere, even things like cages where monkeys climb out of the entrance further from you when poked with the car have them crawl slow enough for you to run up and net them before they run off (and, you know, you can just let them run off and catch them bare). Twin stick controls have potential, but Ape Escape never really used them well, it was always on the level of Wii wagglan.

I loved ape escape but not the controls for the tank. That’s why I was never able to beat the game.

I played the original like 10 years ago cause I wanted to play 3 for the loli. I thought it was crap at first but when I got to hot spring level I started liking it. Problem is I put of 2. I played it like 2 years ago and had fun but stopped for some reason. Now I'm going through 2 again.

Up/Down in a somewhat fast but steady rhythm alternating with both sticks. Though there's probably a little RNG in the background as well.

PSX easily. The PSP version doesn't have the second analog stick, and has one less gadget set to the face buttons (3 on PSP vs 4 on PSX).
