This game is easily a top 5 3D platformer, so why don't more people talk about it?

It's a really good game in terms of atmosphere and soul. You have to be high to enjoy it fully. It's too easy

The cover reminds me of cgi from simpsons games albeitdoe

>It's a really good game in terms of atmosphere and soul.
I really appreciate how they started to design levels later in the game, like from one of the snow levels (I think it had Santa) onwards.
They stop being self-contained little Ape Escape 2 style levels, and evolve into weird sprawling monsters with over a dozen transition screens. That always had a really unique feel to it, started to feel more like an adventure game really
>>
it's barely even a platformer, the focus isn't on platforming in the same way a game like Crash is. most 3D platformers are in actuality collectathons
>>
Ape escape is genuinely so amazing. It sucks that they didn't keep up with it. The first 3 games were mostly iterative, but with some innovation and new ideas this couldve been a mainstay like Gran Turismo was for PS. God I love Ape Escape.

>>12646091
it's actually decently popular among fans of the genre.

It's barely a platformer and still worse than the first game. Preverts pretend to like the game but they only like the little girl.

You could say this about every 3d platformer except crash bandicoot

Sadly we all know that nu-Basedny will never revive this series unless they gonna mutilate it and reskin as "politically correct, super realistic" garbage with Sayaka being replaced by black, fat and terminally opressed black woman.

Stop pretending to be retarded. The only thing you achieve is looking like a retard. Retard.

>>12646091
I have mixed feelings about the apes finally being able to dodge and even take your gadgets but this is the same game with morphs so that doesn't really matter

Actual fans play the game
Larpers and shutins just post the discount Pokemon Trainer oc until the bump limit.

In truth, there's actually nothing much to talk about.
If we took out the fanart prostitution, it's just as substantial as talking about a Banjo-Kazooie game for a brief time.

>>12646421
Maybe they'd make more if you'd bought the shitty move game
>>
dunno why it took them three games to realise maybe people would like to play as a cute girl.
AE1 could easily be a top 5 PS1 game if Yumi or equivalent was an optional protag in it.

God please shut the fuck up already

Doesn't have "Mario" in the name, so Millennial Journalistberg never spent years including it in articles about CHILDHOOD MEDIA THAT WAS LE DARKER THAN YOU REMEMBER

>why don't more people talk about it?
It's more of a game that you experience than discuss. It's fun in a very visceral, simple way that doesn't lend itself to protracted conversation.
It's also pretty much universally regarded as one of the best platformers on the PS2 without much debate, as opposed to something like Super Mario Sunshine which invites a lot of arguments about its place in the series due to being a mixed bag of great ideas and unfortunate flaws.

The most interesting thing about Ape Escape 3 to talk about is the fact that it is one of the absolute best lolicon games of all time, and so for better or worse any conversation about it inevitably drifts towards that.

However, I would like to point out a fact that many people overlook, which is that it is in my opinion, also one of the best MILF games of all time. Holy shit Akie is so hot.
