One of the first big hits of the Xbox Live Arcade. Maps were much more grounded than the later entries, for better or worse.

I started playing this because I was getting frustrated at the PS1 Ape Escape controls. 6 years of hindsight somehow did not work the magic I thought it would've and the controls for this game are somehow WORSE. Couldn't get passed it and went back to PS1 Ape Escape with newfound respect. Though, for the niche of people who don't own a PS1 but own a PSP - it's Ape Escape. Also the voice of Billy from Billy & Mandy voices your character.

Surprised this game ran on a PSP of all things. Good on them. Unfortunately, that doesn't make the game itself good. Very basic and cookie cutter. Cool little tidbit for the 3.5 Resistance fans that exist.

Even Edgier Wipeout with a good selection of tracks :)

Edgy Wipeout with a middling selection of tracks

A game that LOOKS like it's from 2012. It is thankfully much more grounded in what the original Wipeout set out to do making for a very fun experience.

Simple yet great looking HD collection of 3 decent Wipeout games. Happy it exits yet doesn't do much for the franchise.

I boot up Ape Escape,
