Can You Beat Ape Escape 2 Without using any Gadgets?

[@marsh_gl3605]

Ape Escape 2 is the oldest game I own. Not literally, like I own older games. But it's the oldest game that I physically bought when it came out and still have. So I love to see it loved ❤

[@sirrando]

It's great! I wish more people had played it

[@TotalWeapon26]

Nice man! I have the Italian job for ps1, hugely underrated game!

[@Tuschi17]

Sounds like you had a great time. Edit: Just seeing the game in motion again makes me want to replay it.

[@sirrando]

I did actually. It was definitely fun to replay. Even if some select parts drove me crazy

[@davidlejenkins]

I just came across your channel yesterday and I have nothing but admiration for the amount of pain you put yourself through for these arbitrary challenges. You've got another fan rooting for you. Godspeed!.

[@sirrando]

Thank you. As much as some little bits drive me mad. I do love the process 99% of the time. Glad you have been enjoying them!

[@jackypendragon2041]

This is a really nice video for one of my favourite games! Came across it randomly when searching up challenge video's, glad I could see it for its debut! :D

[@sirrando]

Thank you! I am glad you enjoyed it. I have been enjoying making these challenge runs!

15:38 the 5 stun club hits on this gate. Could it not be done with maybe 3 or 4? Looked like there was time to run under without swinging the full 5 times? I haven't played this game since launch so have no recent experience, but thought would share thoughts :)

[@sirrando]

Yeah. It's quite deceptive. You need it to hit the top otherwise it just falls too fast. It was a fun run though

[@rocketpunchgo1]

One of my favorite games of all time (and literally my first PS1 game was the first Ape Escape). Great playthrough!

[@sirrando]

Its a great game, AE1 was one of the first PS1 games I got aswell

[@RiekeLt]

Sweet video, thanks for making it! And your writing skills are superb. Super enjoyable! As someone who did this challenge first, here are some pointers I found; - The air crawl into the banana huts are difficult, but doable. It's all about handling speed and angles. - Simian Citadel softlock is fixable by... getting rid of the thing by pressing buttons in the room, but that kinda defeats the purpose. So forward is the way we go! - I'm pretty sure you can spin normally 3/4 times instead of grouund pounding 5 times in Simian Citadel. Unless you want to complete it. - Shout outs to Yuri for the ghosting. Was about to write this down ;p

[@sirrando]

Thanks for dropping by. By the point of simian citadel I had removed the idea of using the stun club normally from my head, It didn't even cross my mind! If I revisit this again later I will definitely look at the huts more

[@donoteatmikezila]

Good effort and enjoyable video!

[@sirrando]

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it

Ape Escape 1 has one of my fave soundtracks of all time

[@sirrando]

AE 1 and 3 have incredible sound tracks

[@JonJon-nt1wy]

I never played AE2 but i remember i never finished number 1 and it was one of the first ps1 games i played, also the music was pumpin

[@sirrando]

Ape escape 1 and 3 have absolutely god tier OSTs. AE2s is much weaker imo

[@Bridgetrollhaspizza]

Gonna be honest: I already knew the answer, as I am familiar with this franchise, I just wanted to see the absolute bullshit you pulled off. It was absolutely worth it

[@sirrando]

Much bullshit was definitely pulled off. Glad you liked it

[@Infiniti-Beau]

1:15 is that the port/remaster is the pal version so we don't get Ash and Misty version in the states 🐇

[@Infiniti-Beau]

Shoulda played as Spike for the ost swap ;3c

[@sirrando]

Yeah, its the PAL version, thats what I played on as a kid so hearing ash and misty weirds me out lol. I Didnt know there was a way to play as spike! I definitely would have done that if I had known!

[@CB-L]

13:48 What's that cursed ape dancing in the background!? Is that from other source?

[@sirrando]

You want a link. you are a brave soul indeed. I wanted the most curseed ape escape thing i could find. and well... I found this.... and its perfect kzbin.info/www/bejne/f3KnlKSqmctjhrs

[@CB-L]

@@sirrando How did you even find this...? 😲😲😲

[@sirrando]

@@CB-L I searched for "ape escape cosplay"and assuming something would be cursed. I was right

[@CB-L]

@@sirrando That...thing is gonna haunt me until new AE game comes out

[@billybrooks1365]

*HOW CUTE*

[@sirrando]

Stop rubbing yourself!

[@sleepyhunter]

Ape escape 1 & 3 had the same composer I'm not sure if he was unavailable during AE 2 or if they juet didn't want him back but AE 1 & 3 have killer sound tracks

[@sirrando]

I agree, the first and third games have absolutely killer soundtracks. So I just had to use it in this video

[@John_II]

Hooray for loopholes!

[@sirrando]

Hooray!

[@sir_justinius]

You know the net is technically a gadget, right?

[@sirrando]

@@sir_justinius yes. As I stated in the video in the intro

[@kano9660]

MONKEYS

[@sirrando]

And lots of them too

[@Dusty_989]

Please, please tell me you called Jimmy "Spike" on purpose so I can contenue watching...

[@sirrando]

Spike is the only protagonist 👀

[@Dusty_989]

@@sirrando good answer, back to the video!

[@mixmastermike2128]

the answer is no

[@sirrando]

Correct, but it was a fun journey

[@CirnoFairy]

Ape escape 2 music bad? Well, that's just wrong.

[@sirrando]

Not bad. Just generic, especially compared to 1 and 3
