4 out of 5 stars Fun but maybe not for true gamers...   January 14, 2008
One of the things I like best about this game is that you use the controls different then most other games of this type and that alone can pose a new and interesting challenge. The only negative thing I can say about this game is the cut scenes are a little too long, the boss battles are very easy once you find out the secrets to destroy them and sometimes constant changing of gadgets can slightly put a drag on play time. Overall this is a good game that will hold your interest. It is a GREAT game for kids (9 and up), maybe not really young first timers, as they may have trouble figuring out which item to use at which time. It can pose enough challenge to be fun for anyone, the mini games are fun as well. I recommend getting cheats to find the hidden rooms for the last morph.


5 out of 5 stars Cute game with lots of actions!   December 26, 2007
This is really a fun game! I personally have been a RPG gamer for as long as I can remember ever since I started playing video games. Therefore I am used to plots and story lines and over 60 hours of continuous game play. This game offered me a whole new experience of gaming, and it is absolutely great! It is cute, creative, and so much fun to play. You get to run after many different kinds of monkeys in many different environments. There're surprises in lots of scenes. The scenery changes at every level so you don't ever feel like you're doing the same thing! This game is definitely one for all ages. Highly recommended for video gamers out there who are looking for a fun gaming experience!

The reason I like the game is because its challenging and its fun to try out!! Its kind of for beginners but well you'll evntually start getting into it by the 2nd boss!! It takes a lot of skill to beat the monkeys because some keep hitting you until your lifes are out!! Its really cool but start with the first game.The reason I did not like this game as much as I thought I would is because the controllers that you use in the game are not natural. Such as using the R1 button to jump or the right analog stick to capture the monkeys and use the gadgets. In the end you'll get use to it but you'll have to spend lots of time in the training room to get used to types of buttons you use. Another reason is, is that once you finish the game the game it gets boring. You capture the monkeys over and over again but yet it gets more boring as you go along the game. In overall I give this game a 5 star rating!! But I had to take one off because of the bad part of the game. So the average rating is 4 stars!!!

Ape Escape 3 is overall a really fun game. I haven't played the last one (Ape Escape 2) in a while, but I think this one is a little better. One thing is that I thought the new "morph gear" thing was a little off. Transforming wasn't something I'd expect in an Ape Escape game, and it didn't seem to fit in (although it is kinda fun and helpful).The mini game Mesal Gear Solid is awesome! I command you to play it! (I haven't beat it yet)


4 out of 5 stars Fun And Funny as All Hell   September 29, 2006

Look Im 20 years old and i never would have thought chasing monkeys wit nets, have them be inside costumes, and doing crazy antics would make for such a fun game.....Ive been a fan of the series since the beginnning, The only reason i gave it 4 stars is because the game has not created something new and original to compliment the fact you have to catch monkeys.....I think wat keeps the game alive is the control scheme that was implemented, the funny things the monkeys do, and the ways we use the gadgets within the game.... Hope fully if they come out with an Ape Escape 4 that reinvents a few things to make the game more hilariously fun.....
Nonetheless it is an excellent game to play by urself and wit kids to have a nice time.....Damn munkies are funny!
