got tokyo jungle

[fistfulofmetal]

ps3 stuff

[nachobro]

Always wanted to try Tokyo Jungle. For a dollar why not?

[brob]

I really like Tokyo Jungle. Only bad part about the game is how it's structured to get you to go back and forth between the different modes and how utterly slow unlocking clothing & equipment is.

[demi]

I bought:

Tokyo Jungle
Crash 1, 2 (3 actually shows up for $6, but if it gets fixed I will buy it)
Spyro 1, 2, 3
Gex Enter the Gecko

[Trent Dole]

Fuck you if you don't buy Tokyo Jungle.

[Beezy]

Pretty sure I have no space for these. Ah well. Still gonna buy like 7 of em.

[brob]

I only have room for one spyro game in my life. which one holds up the best?

[chronovore]

Stuntman Ignition was a THQ title; I've been wondering lately -- when a company which has gone out of business still has titles on a digital marketplace, who gets that money?

Did anyone buy the rights to this at THQ's clearance auction?

[Takao]

Sony's listed as the publisher on the store, but they're listed as the publisher on a lot of PS2/PSone games.

[benjipwns]

I only have room for one spyro game in my life. which one holds up the best?

2 maybe. I love the first games simplicity but 2 adds and refines so much more. 3 starts adding in more and more stuff like friends and skateboarding and so on...

[Raban]

Yeah I am tempted to get Gex as a fan of Crystal Dynamics but I'm not totally sure. I don't remember being too jazzed by it when I played it as a kid. Ditto with the Spyro games.

My haul is:
Tokyo Jungle
Crash 2 and 3 (already had the first)
Everyday Shooter

[archie4208]

I grabbed Crash 1, 2, 3 and racing
Spyro 1, 2, 3
Tokyo Jungle
Super Stardust HD

I probably won't play any of the games except 10 minutes of Tokyo Jungle and SSHD. 

[Trent Dole]

Hey man, OG Gex was cool. I have it in one of the goofy longbox cases they had when the PSX first hit.

[a slime appears]

I'M GONNA BUY:

Retro City Rampage
Crash Bandicoot 1-3
Crash Team Racing
Spyro the Dragon 1-3
echochrome
Tokyo Jungle
Super Stardust HD
Everyday Shooter

OHHHHH YEAAAAAAAAAH

spoiler (click to show/hide)

I already own Tokyo Jungle so EAD

[close]

[Himu]

Is Gex1 even good anymore? I may get it for the heck of it. I remember finding Enter The Gecko good when I was like 13/14 but I'm not sure I want to subject myself to that again.

It's just a dollar! If you're curious just buy it.

[demi]

[Joe Molotov]

Crash and Spyro games still don't work on the PS Muerte.  :'( I might buy 'em just in case they get added later.

[a slime appears]

my autn found one in a apartment she had that belonged to a guy who killed someone; it had the games Gex and this one with mark hamil lI think in space fighting against pyramids enemy wars or something. it also had a blank case to Night trap 

in the whole time I owned it (20+ years) i've only heard of 1 other person having a 3d0 and he owned Super Street fighter 2 and a controller  best version of street fighter 2 ever and i didnt even care that you had to tether the second player controller into the first

[hampster]

Spyro and Crash don't work on the vita

 

[Takao]

infamousmortimer said Activision was to blame for Crash/Spyro not working on Vita. I can't even come up with a theory as to why. Maybe PS4/PSNow will get SCEA to bug them about it.

[Himu]

Why the fuck isn't Ape Escape on psn?

[Himu]

Oh. It is on jp psn.


http://m.

After self studying Japanese for a year, this is incredibly easy to read and play. Can understand about everything.

[Himu]

The fact you can't assign dpad only games to analog stick with ps3 psx emulator is not excusable IMO.

[hampster]

Anyone play the PSP ape escape? Loved the game on the PS1, I wonder how the transition to PSP's one nub went

[Himu]

PSP Ape Escape should be great on Vita since you can map buttons and it has a right stick.

[thisismyusername]

PSP Ape Escape should be great on Vita since you can map buttons and it has a right stick.

Right stick doesn't matter, it'd still be emulating the D-pad of the PSP. 

I'm honestly surprised they haven't done a version of Ape Escape for that system. Double so since it was the "killer app"/game that showed the potential of dual-analog on the PSX.

[Raban]

Sony figured out that nobody gives a shit about Ape Escape.

Shame what happened to that series. Ape Escape is the best 3d plat former on the system and remains a classic game. It is better than Crash, Spyro, and others. When it came out it was fresh and really different and everyone played it. Then the sequels come out and for some reason they don't sell as much? I was never sure why. Advertising?

The Ape Escape monkey will always be my ideal Sony mascot.

I like Ape Escape.  :'(

[MyNameIsMethodis]

The Ape Escape monkeys are cuter than anything Nintendo has ever shit out. There I said it.

I've never played a Ape Escape before. Should I?

[magus]

ape escape was one of my favourite series, especialy number 2 which comes with a truckload of bonus materials like concept artwork,mini games, even 4 panel comics, another casuality of wacky jap caused by next gen

and ape escape 3 came with his own metal gear parody



did i mention it's longer and more representive of metal gear solid than ground zero?

[cool breeze]

yeah, ape escape was a great series.  some of the most creative games out there.  it's been nearly 10 years since the last proper game.  I blame knack.

and I haven't played the psp ape escape since around the psp's launch, but I remember the controls reminding me of the nintendo 64 zelda games.  face buttons were treated like the c-buttons.

[a slime appears]

I blame knack.

Yeah, most of the Ape Escape team worked on Knack at SCE Japan Studio.

[cool breeze]

that was a shot in the dark, too! blaming knack for the world's problems finally pays off.

[Himu]

I've never played a Ape Escape before. Should I?

YES.

[Himu]

I blame knack.

Yeah, most of the Ape Escape team worked on Knack at SCE Japan Studio.

How do you go from one of the most creative and charming game series of all time to Knack?

[Raban]

I like Ape Escape.  :'(

Me too, breh, but if my memory serves Ape Escape 2 and 3 didn't sell all that well. I'm curious about the PSP game too, I'm not as worried about the controls as I am the smaller levels and constant load times (which might be alleviated in the PSN version). Hopefully it goes on sale at some point.

[MyNameIsMethodis]

i rly wanna play ape eescape 3 now wish it was on psn

[Takao]

maybe sony will make an ape escape collection with the psp remake/2/3

nah sorry, they'll release god of war 1+2 again on PS4

I blame knack.

Yeah, most of the Ape Escape team worked on Knack at SCE Japan Studio.

[Himu]

Fuck PSP version. Do psx version with an HD 2 and 3

[AdmiralViscen]

Bought a handful of games and half of them won't install due to some bullshit error. Fuck, the PS3 is such a piece of shit
