    Ape Escape is quite funny, but the gameplay is too repetitive and boring to keep you motivated.

    The return of the apes could be fun, but the problem is that the gameplay is way to repetitive, the game is also pretty quick completed and it doesn't really have any variations in the gameplay. The PlayStation Move support, which is working perfectly, could have been used a lot more, but the developer failed to do it.

    Ape Escape Move is actually a mini-game because even for an on-rails shooter this game is short. The gameplay is way too easy, creating a very boring experience. After a few hours you'll toss this out of the window and play one of the better Move games available.

  1. this is NOT ape escape. Ape escape is about freedom and catching monkeys. Its about using the dualshock analog controller. NOT about using a dumb stick to move the gadgets around. This game is trash. I cant BELIEVE they used time they could of used for ape escape 4 on this hunk of trash. I want my money back sony. Expand
