Underrated

There's a lot of harsh reviews for this game. Now the game has it's flaws, the vast majority of games do. Even the best ones.

The flaws are that the loading times are often and fairly long for today's standards. The controls are a bit tough to get used to. This game would have benefited from an lock-on feature. That way you could better follow the Ape you're chasing.

The story is meh, but then again you don't buy a game called Ape Escape: On the Loose for the story. It's tolerable. The voice acting was surprisingly good and frequent. The game is fun and the fun factor makes up for the problems the game has. At least for me it does. At $10 it's a great deal to at least try this game which is, in my opinion, an underrated PSP game.
 

Wow..can we say primitive?

My daughter has many game systems and loads upon loads of games. I put this in her stocking for Christmas and she spent an hour at it and then gave it to a neighbor. It was the most boring, primitive in graphics and action game I've seen in a long time. Pretty poor. [...]. Bleh. I recommend SKATE for a great action-packed game for younger teenagers with no violence or anything bad to influence your child. Lots of fun. I'd skip this one ..no RUN right by it...
 

boring

It was horrible! The controlls were hard to use. It wasn't that fun. Don't buy it!
 

Fun and Challenging

When I first got my PSP I got this game and two others. I noticed that this game is identical to the ape escape game for the PS1(except for the online play).The veiw is very hard. Since the PSP only has one analog nub you have to steer Spike (the main charecter) with the nub and you must change the veiw with the arrows, so when a monkey goes around a cornner you must stop, change your veiw and then keep on running which slows the time it takes to catch the monkey. Also the loading times are very LOOOOOOOOOONG. On the first level I waited two to three minutes for a one to two minute level. But the farther in to the game the longer the level. The graphics are very good for having a varaily small screen on the PSP. All of the controls are harder than other ape escape games but that makes the levels longer and more challenging. If you don't like hard, time consumming games this game is not or you. Overall its fun but very hard to master.
 

Fun but easy

I have another ape escape game but the analog stick made it too easy. I finished it in 3 days (the ps2 version) this one took a month but I still thought it was easy. Most of the month I spent getting the extra stuff.
