This game is not available on Playstation Network, but used copies of the PS1 disc can be bought online. My one complaint with this game is that the render distance is quite short, and you won't be able to see objects that are far away. The graphics are nice, the music is great, the level design is good, and the gameplay is fun. Every gadget has one or two unique uses, and you will swap them frequently, Zelda style. There are 8 gadgets in total, and you can map them to the face buttons of the controller. The goal of each level is to catch a certain number of monkeys, but if you want total completion you will need to return to each level to catch the remaining monkeys with your new gadgets. Even the minigames, which are unlocked by collecting hard-to-reach Specter Coins, make use of dual-analog control.

For example, you can slash in any direction with the stun club by quickly tilting the right stick, or you can rotate it to do a spin attack. With the left stick you control Spike's movement and with the right stick you control the gadget he's currently using. Spike must travel to each period of time and use a stun club, time net, and other crazy gadgets to catch the monkeys before they change the course of history.

Specter and his army of monkeys hijack the time machine and are sent across time itself. Meanwhile, a white haired monkey from the circus named Specter somehow gets his hands on the Professor's unfinished Peak Point Helmet, which gives him incredible knowledge and power, and turns him into an evil genius. Spike and his friend Jake are heading to the Professor's lab to see his newest invention, the time machine. It's an odd premise, but it works quite well and ties in perfectly with the story. It's a 3D platformer where you run, jump, and. It's like two systems in one, unlike the Playstation 4!Īpe Escape, released in 1999 and developed by Sony Computer Entertainment, was the first PS game that required the Dualshock controller - with two analog sticks! In fact, much of the gameplay is based around this. I'd like to give special thanks to my Playstation 2 for its backwards compatibility. Greetings, folks! Today I am here for a double review - two Playstation One classics - Ape Escape and Brave Fencer Musashi.
