(Ape Escape) #1) The Apes' Escape

[RyanMoment360]

i still love this game :')

[tousenx555777]

how did jake get controled by specter?

[VerendumGames]

@tousenx555777 I assume he used the Peak Point helmet somehow.

[smash44556677]

Why is this not on Playstation Store!!!!

[EdzoIV4]

@smash44556677 because the game requires dualshock and ps1 games are psp/ps3 compatible so it would be usable on psp.

[olisaoli]

Ahh first game that required me to use a duelshock controller.

[Baseballzthelife4me]

My fav game as a kid

[Deeptrouble154]

Another game from my childhood that I missed... I almost hate OoT and Mario 64 now >_>

[TomoDj7]

like, if you are watching this in 2011 :)

[TERORNOVA]

i rememberd the intro song to this for the rest of my life

[SinataSeries]

... :( This is not the Ape Escape I remember.

[RockmanWIFI]

lol why does spike sounds so manly during cutscenes? He's supposed to be a kid. He even sounds like a kid during gameplay.

[SinataSeries]

@RockmanWIFI Try the English version. Major kid acting in that one.

[ilusmdrake]

No lie, I still have this game and play it!!!! I love the monkey park!!! (:

[Metalscourge18]

man i love this game anything about it was awesome from the story to the music & the levels it was just awesome i just love it wish they wood make a 4 i no some people ben talking about having a ape escape on ps3 & there right the ps3 needs a ape escape every playstation needs ape escape i no the ps3 is great but the one thing that can make it better is ape escape 4 i think anyways & great video upload

[CyroBlader]

natalie always reminded of pokemon's misty

[EatMoreCrayons]

What's wrong with their voices? Was there a re-release of the english one? The one I have is much better voice acting than this :C this is just weird to watch xD

[fkkkkkenig]

@EatMoreCrayons these were the original voices. wacky and terrible though they are, they fit the atmosphere perfectly IMO.

[allacazzip123]

man i used to love this game ! :O

but i cant find it anywhere now :(

i wish i could get it back somehow

[superang11]

why haven't they made A REAL APE ESCAPE for PS3?

[Mekrokan]

@superang11 Why not for Xbox?

[VerendumGames]

@Mekrokan As cool as that would be, it's technically still Sony's IP.

[mochure1112]

ahhhh....... brings back memories ........(that is if i have played it before).

[DeadpoolvsSpiderman]

this should be on ps store!

[equiizdee]

El mejor juego de toda mi pinche infancia.

[Wastelander1972]

Jeez louise and all things in between... this game brings back MEMORIES...

[DanieleBosi]

Why in the american version Buzz's name is Jake ?

[fkkkkkenig]

@DanieleBosi Jake is his original english name.

[DanieleBosi]

@fkkkkkenig Yes, but what the point of redubbing in english something that is already in english ? I mean European version has the U.K. version redubbed (badly) ...

[fkkkkkenig]

@DanieleBosi No idea. Might have something to do with licensing. These things get murky as you go further up the corporate chain of command.

[pabz426]

i hope this game gets posted up on PSN when it works again!!!! =)

[Seppokarhu300]

I Friking love this game.

[ModTheSims100]

If anyone knows where the US version of Ape Escape 2 is, tell me. Even though I live in NZ, we have a US PS2 because we got it in America and send it to where I live

[tilatequilaism94]

OH THE NOSTALGIA.

[YoungJeezyCOD]

One of the main reasons I bought a PSP was to download old PS1 games and to buy a couple other games including the remake of this...I think I sold it though because I beat it and for me it wasn't that replayable, like most PSP games :(

[NinjaKingRevival]

@YoungJeezyCOD the psp remake was shitty. they changed the voices and controls...

[YoungJeezyCOD]

@NinjaKingRevival I know it was. But I don't have a PS1 and I didn't feel like going out of my way to buy it for my brother's ps3 who would end up taking it to college soon anyways. Now it's at college and I can never play it unless he brings it. And of course they changed the controls, it doesn't have L2 or R2, and only one analog stick.

[andrewlawrence2209]

This is the reason why PS1 controllers had 2 analog sticks.

[videogameuser12]

now this game is awesome ive had it forever

[waffleownage]

The professor should have put the time machine into a Delorean

[xwushun]

omfg i still rmb breaking my analog stick while playing this game its jus thrilling and epic

[TheAbridgedGamer]

I remmember this being voiced in British as a kid, its so different from what i've remembered.

The game is the same, but the voices sounds so..... well odd :I

[13mmJackel]

what is the song at the very beginning?

[slyjose101]

@13mmJackel It's the music used for Crabby Beach stage. The exact same. Look it up.

[TwilightSea]

I just love the music to this scene. :D

[Natdaprat]

Best video game ever.

[rabbitlove4ever]

I used to run like Jake.

[callofdutyrocks1996]

i fell in love with this game!!

[Zopetzo]

HahaHA! The Quality is so great here xDD THIS IS THE LAST PS1 Game that i own :D I WILL never sell this anywhere. :)

[JoshRobertson142]

pure nostalgia

[BowWow452]

Nintendo should remake this game for the 3DS. That would make my day.

[Hanazono1]

@BowWow452 Game was created by Sony's own studio so that's not very likely.. But I agree that it might have worked well on touch screen

[Switchedpro]

0 people did not gotcha any apes in this game :D

[xophotoloverjs]

OMG :D i remember when i was really little and we used to play this all the time. One of the best games ever!

[Scraxs]

I wish the US version had the UK Spector and Proff voices.

I wish the UK version had the US Spike and Buzz voices.

The beginning is well voiced in the US version.

But the ending is far superior in the UK version imho.

[cloudwalkerty]

WHY ISNT THIS ON PSN!!!!!!!!! RRRRRRRRRRRHHHHHHAAAAA!!!!!!!

[ChangingTheSpectrum]

This might be strange, but I gotta say, I think my favorite part about this entire game is the soundtrack. Seriously, I played this game YEARS ago, and I just looked this game up because I remembered the soundtrack. So damn catchy. I need to play this game again... :'(

[dorberman69]

the music kicks so much ass

[MegaJazmin100]

i have this game and the blue haired kid is not called jake he is called buzz and their voices are much higher

[MrCardife]

the blue haired person was a girl when I had the game.

[BluHorizonProduction]

WTf?? Where's the shitty English accents??? NO!!!!!!!!!

[katc66]

when i was little i thought the graphics were incredible XD

[K1LL3RxSUSHI]

I've always thought that Spikes voice was cool

[mchristie12]

Even though that theres Ape Escape 2 and 3, Ape Escape 1(Playstation 1) will always be the king of it.

[Gamechamp3000]

@mchristie12 How sexist.

[metalsonic641]

@Gamechamp3000 lol

[tylercjenkins12345]

@Gamechamp3000 how the fuck is that sexist...

[metalsonic641]

@mchristie12 yea

[Cavin21]

@mchristie12

No question, the first game was the best. Best story and characters like Jake in it..

[iateyursandwiches]

man i miss this game ='D but seriously i think this game was the best in the series all other ape escape games after this sucked -_-

[Gamechamp3000]

@iateyursandwiches It seems like everybody these days gets the words "sucked" and "awesomed" confused.

[iateyursandwiches]

@Gamechamp3000 o.o lol wut im just saying the games after this one were bad

[Gamechamp3000]

@iateyursandwiches There you go again, getting the word "bad" confused with "amazingsauce."

[iateyursandwiches]

@Gamechamp3000 meh i dont care if ppl dont agee with me i just dont think they were dat good especially when compared to the first one and yes i played them (i even beat pumped and primed)

[Gamechamp3000]

@iateyursandwiches But did you beat it with every character and collect everything?

[iateyursandwiches]

@Gamechamp3000 yea even dark jake but all im saying is imo compared too the first game all the others suck story wise and char. wise (though i guess i wont be too hard on pumped and prime cuz it was just a random spin off)

[Gamechamp3000]

@iateyursandwiches Ape Escape 3 had Tomoki.

It wins.

[iateyursandwiches]

@Gamechamp3000 ape escape 3.. well the only thing i found cool about it rly was that u can transform into a ninja and wat not but still imo compared to ape escape one i realy dont think its all that sigh look maybe the first time i commented i was alittle too harsh with my words i just think compared to the first game ther not dat good alrite?

[Gamechamp3000]

@iateyursandwiches Nothing is "alrite" until you realize that Ape Escape 3 is superior to everything ever made ever in the world ever.

[Harkins1721]

@Gamechamp3000 You couldnt be more wrong....

[jtraaaain56]

ahhhhh good times with the ps1

[JezzyRallz2012]

This nostalgia is UnBearable!!!!

[tomman36]

I loved this game few years ago..

very good times :D

[lappenstomper8]

dude wtf~!? how is this voice acting WORSE than UK VERSION?the uk version is horrible.like this better.

[japabto]

Omg Soo nostalgic!

i Love that game

[cessarnater]

i loved this game so much i passed it as a kid it brings back so many memories

[gdstudiosh3]

man the nostalgia is killing me!

[TheElektra10]

i hate that game

[drmendonsa]

the best games i've been seen! Its a Legend like Syphon Filter and Metal Gear Solid ... the games i will never forget ^^

Iam play this on psx emulator and i love it!

[coolman982009]

man do i remember this game

[firespin97]

the us versions sounded like old british ladies

US VOICES OF SPIKE AND JAKE WERE BETTER THAN UK.

[firespin97]

UK version voices sound like chicks.

Spike and Jake remind me of a young Sora and Riku

[RoyPwnz]

Well, good thing about the PAL version is the fact the voices are better than they are in the US version, the US voice acting is awful x_x

[DarknessDante666]

what's up with the voices?

My copy had completely different voices

[RoyPwnz]

Hm... how come the voices on my version of this game are different? Spike and Buzz sound a lot younger on mine :/

[guybrush20X6]

They redid the voices in the PAL version. Personally I prefer the younger PAL voices

[PPPEEETTTIIIEEE]

i love the music in this game :D

[bmetsfan18]

i miss this game so much i still have a ps1 but i don't have this game anymore

[13AxelRoxas]

2 be onest i've never completed this game and i'm really embarrsed it's not that i coundn't catchthe monkeys i can't use the glider thing i lost 2 controlers playing this game(my anger got the better of me).

[TheKillerbeast90]

if somewone will sell it send a mail please:)

[AaronPro8]

i remember i asked my mum to buy me this game once it first came out.

playing this countless hours completing the story and then replaying it too capture all the monkeys.

playing the mini games.

good game, sadly i lost it.

Loved this game! and that intro song too!

[JoshRobertson142]

many hours of my childhood were spent on this game :) i still remember that music!!

[dkw12002]

What amazes me is the variation is quality of games. Some like this are excellent, but others...mostly those that come out after movies of the same name are usually very poor. All 3 Ape Escape games are great. I like other platform games like Rayman, Great Escape and Toy Story 2 as well. I have about 20 games that I have played only once and that is more than enough though. Spiderman, Harry Potter, Sponge Bob, Series of Unfortunate Events, Shrek, Monsters, Inc. are all pretty bad.

[halojunkie4]

i still got it!

[darkstar1987lx]

this game is just epic phun XD

[hudini2]

this game was raw homie

good times

[Gamechamp3000]

Yeah, somebody needs to cook this game.

[TheColdKaze]

@Gamechamp3000

yum, roast ape escape

[poopybooyah]

@hudini2 oh yeah! that opening scene reminds me of like watching the intro story of crash bandicoot 3: warped on youtube. com/watch?v=0_q73LSlPeE

[xXDJSolsticeXx]

@hudini2 wow your so gangster.

[hudini2]

@xXDJSolsticeXx

I never said I was..?

But thanks anyway :DD

[xXDJSolsticeXx]

@hudini2 i was being sarcastic but anyway who could turn that into compliment should be a gangster.

[hudini2]

@xXDJSolsticeXx

Well uhmmmm..aright !

[mowens4th]

classic no other ape escape can ever be as good as the 1st

[TheFalconSpy]

oh man, i remember playing this every day on my ps1, it was so fun.

[FreakingVermillion]

@TheFalconSpy

dude i was just gonna say the same

i liked the music and the game so much :D

[TheFalconSpy]

i remember the first time playing it i got so frustrated because i didn't even know i was supposed to have a certain controller, lol, the gameplay was so awesome for it being a classic ps1 game

[sonicest]

i put thumbs down,sorry, i thought you said no fun, but it was so fun.

sorry.

[TheFalconSpy]

its fine dude

[RuugaQ]

I just luv this game! <3

[ShadowGlove84]

Yes, Professor. Ignore that the evil monkeys and Spike and Jake just got thrust into whenever with possibly no chance of reutrn. Your fricking time machine works.

[roleplayfreak]

lol Ahh good memories :) I still have it

[KHORDIxPRODUCTIONS]

i loved this game! haha

[The7777lord]

An awsome game and yes, it brings back lots of good memories !

[ShiveriFication]

i bought that 5euro ^^ but i dont have old memory card

[wazup0069]

omg this brings back so many memories

[RscapeTtroop]

@wazup0069 reminds me of being a kid :)

[madmonkey456]

I love the playstaion 1 version, the remake on psp is stupid because they rescreened the voices and took away the ability to use the weapons co-op (just one analog stick) to the ps1 version..... Xp

[turnips4eva]

They had different voice actors in the European version. They were crap.

[stompybot]

The european voices were absolutely terrible compared :(

[hellanime11]

one question why didn't the prof and the bitch got sucked in with jake and spike

[hellanime11]

0:54 no no aw shit

[busydude2222]

jake runs like hes retarded lol, i love this game

[filipeflower]

Jake also runs like that in the PSP remade version.

[sxeeplta]

I love the music during this part !

[AkumaUchitoru]

"Professor: Hmm, so I've built a time machine. Now what to I do with it? Go to the past and prevent tradgedies? Go to the future and obtain the cure for cancer? OH, I KNOW! I'LL LET SOME RANDOM KIDS GO PLAY HORSEY WITH A T-REX!

He deserves the Nobel Prize."

More like he deserves the Darwin Award. XD

[Benny5421]

Great times even. :D

Its a shame I can't play this anymore due to a scratched disk. Oh the horror. >>

[Nefault1st]

I know right? They use to sell ps1 games at gamestop, so I had got a new disk in time. I dont know why they stopped selling them.

[Benny5421]

Well, the same reason that the NES and SNES games came off the shelves. Because people didn't seem to be intersted in them anymore due to the latest consoles. A shame really. D:

[Nefault1st]

omg im interested. DX

[Insaneagram]

You might find it on Ebay

[alexjuh111]

aah good times

[YwaNL1337]

I believe the voices are different than my European version.

[Prototype342]

i think ape escape was one of the first games to include use of the analog sticks.

[Gamechamp3000]

Close. It was the first game to REQUIRE analog sticks.

[ApeEscaper493]

Yes. It is the first game to need double-analog sticks to play. I have GWRGE2008. (Guiness World Records Gamers Edition 2008) In "Platform Games Roundup" it says Ape Escape was the first one to need analog sticks.

[Jessicalove318]

lmfaoo i luved this gamee <3 im gonna put it on my ipod (;

[linkrulezall]

Ummm... when the professor says "it works" The person talking is Natalie!!

[jay23color]

best game ive ever played :D

[MartinusPrime]

Wow. The voices are much better than the UK version. The characters even have better names.

[mchristie12]

PS1 version of ape escape had better voice actors than the psp version. The psp version makes spike sound like a 7 year old.

[michie123]

im also glad i had the us version the voice talent for uk makes the boys sound like babies.

[PawciopPL]

@michie123 yeah, that makes me damn mad, I couldn't find the proper version =,=

[michie123]

this is my favorite game for ps1 besides ffvii. the music in this game is to die for. i love the map game levels.

[iilaznkidz]

this game was made fun lol i use to unlock the SKi game lol and race lol ahh to bad the disc is broken feel like playing it again This one of the best playstation games ever

[palacios185]

i love this game it brings back so many memmories

[thedudeagainsttheQQ]

Apeescape 1 is my favourite game on playstation 1 .... i got it when i was 6 :D

[Xelper]

The voice actors is different from frommy version of the game.

An in that version they're named Buzz and Spike.

XD

[loboloco93]

best game ever so much fun to play

i put so many hours in this game back in the day

[krezzz3]

and the mini games were a plus along with the gadgets

[TeddyWuggles]

@ Description: So effing true xD

[meleedream5]

i love this game but cant play it anymore i remember this intro

[nairdaB0b]

it's one of my favorite games!!!! but i played it at last 7 years ago..

[FMAfiend]

thanks for upoading!^^

your coments are great! they always make me laugh.^^

[VM0N3Y666]

thought the kid's name was buzz not jake

[checkthataccount]

this is the american version of the game. in this version the kid's name is Jake, while in (at least) the european version it's Buzz. I personaly think that the voice-cast in the USA version is horrible!

[tmii13]

it is buzz but theres a version of ape escape that his name is jake

[Gamechamp3000]

His name is Buzz in the UK version. In the American version, his name is Jake.

[Maddiizz]

This is one awesome game!

[prozac816]

Gahhh, brings back memories from when I was lil

I hope they make a remake of this for PS2 or PS3.

[TheKillM8]

omg sooo old memmories but 1 thing never changes with them..... ugly monkeys with some big mouths and some big ass eyes lol

[jonbotskatergamer]

this vid brings bak alot of memories i have the this game i had it for quite some time now i have a ps3 but befor i couldn't be botherd finishing it because i lost the memory card but u dn't need 1 with the ps3 so im going to try and finnish it by the way can u still get copies of number 2 and 3 for the ps2

[123Y0shi1296]

Wow. Looking back at this old version and the new version makes this one look ugly. But its still one of my favorite games.

[Evilspirit7]

Huh? Whats the new version's game called? plz tell me thanks =)

[muylst]

[stevengt4]

Specter have just kill professor and natitle.

[Max1234qwert]

[AllEyezOnMe1994]
