Do platformer fans like Ape Escape? Always felt it was a bit different than the other 5th gen platformers

I loved it. I was really cool when it first came out too, nice graphics at the time and the first game that required the dualshock controller with the double analog sticks and vibration. So it felt like something new at the time, and that's probably one reason it still feels different besides the focus on chasing and catching monkeys.

It's not a platformer.

Making the main enemies the primary collectable in a collectathon is a genius move. There's tons of level variety and the level design itself is excellent. I also appreciate that's AE1 is just slightly more challenging than some very easy collectathons like Banjo or Spyro. Makes it more fun to replay nowadays. Ape Escape 1 is the best 5th gen collectathon, and the same goes for Ape Escape 3 and the 6th gen.

There is a rumor that headcanon (sonic mania devs) are working on an ape escape game, maybe using the tech they developed for Penny's Big Breakaway. Hope that's true, I didn't love that game but the engine looked fantastic, maybe a more focused gameplay loop and some sonybucks will elevate the project.

Yes, it was popular in 1999-2002 but always inferiro to spyro, crash, rayman and disney games like hercules.

Never played the first one, only played the 2nd and 3rd when I was a kid. Tried to replay the 2nd a few years ago but got filtered by the damn casino level. I wanted to catch all the monkeys but those little gun fuckers are impossible to catch

I like the 6th gen ones, 2, 3 and pumped & primed (best party game btw).

The first game was great but 2 was disappointing. Played the demo when it was out and even as a kid I thought it was lame. I was already moving on to R&C.
