Brain controlling monkeys in new Ape Escape
It all makes so much sense to us now. Finally, after watching gameplay of the new Ape Escape in motion, the game makes so much sense to us. After a mishap, it appears that you're only a fraction of the size you used to be. Thankfully, you have the magical ability to control the minds of these ...
Awfully disturbing Ape Escape ad
When a woman falls in love with an ape ... only bad things can happen. Sony's Japanese ad department scores yet another winner with its terrifyingly disturbing ad for the new Ape Escape game.

Ape Escape: Saru Saru Big Mission downloadable demo
As promised, the Japanese demo for Ape Escape: Saru Saru Big Mission is finally out. This platformer has you ... well, we haven't figured out how to play it quite yet! (Can you tell us?)

Yet another Ape Escape is heading our way
Japan really loves Ape Escape. Sony's simian friends have stared in a PS1 remake, a terrible party game, and a mediocre racing game--all on PSP. Looks like these monkeys aren't done yet, though. Sony's Japanese website reveals yet another addition to the Ape Escape franchise. Our incredibly limite...
Deal of the Day: Ape Escape Racer only $15
You've played the demo: now you can buy this import racer for cheap at Play-Asia. While we didn't think too highly of the game (too slow for our tastes), there aren't really any other monkey-themed kart-style racers on our system. So, if you have the itch for a Mario Kart-styled game, at least it ...
Where is our proper new Ape Escape game?
PSP Fanboy reader Michael sent us the opening for Ape Escape Racer and while it looks to have the playfulness that embodies the series, it got me thinking.
