The Iceman's Game Journal

After seeing Tim's Game Diary, I started this blog to give me some incentive to actually finish some of the 461+ video games I have (of which I have finished 41.) Hope it works.

Enter The Monkey--Ape Escape 2

This stage looked so easy. A bunch of Monkeys right in the open at the begining. All I had to do was run down and catch them. No wonder I needed to catch almost all of them to unlock the next stage.

Then I found out that most of them were Red Pants monkeys.

I hat Red Pants monkeys.Managed to stay alive long enough to catch them all and find Pipochi. Was a little disappointed at how easy it was to catch Ming. for an emperor he was pretty easy

Monkeys Caught--127
Monkeys Left--173

The Blue Baboon--Ape Escape 2

This one wasn't too hard. In fact the hardest part was defeating Pink Monkey when I had captured 9 of the 11 monkeys. Went back after wards and had to face Mulder; I mean Moldy, a monkey with a UFO. For an X-Files fan like me, that was fun.

Next stop: World 4 and Enter The Monkey

Pink Monkey--Ape Escape 2

After I gt the 9 Monkeys I needed to clear The Blue Baboon, I had to fight Pink Monkey, the third member of the Freaky Monkey Five.She was making her signing debut, so I had no problem with beating he snot out of her.

In concept anyways.

She was tough. I had to hit her several times with the stun club, but first I had to get across a pool full of bombs and lily pads while avoiding her stun attack and wait for her to drop a force field before I could get close enough to touch her. And when I did she would throw lightning at me! And then I had to deal with all that and a more powerful stun After each hit because the speakers would blast me back to the other side of the level!

Hit her three times and then the pool dried up and she got pissed. She started throwing Bombs, Beach Balls, Fish, and Energy Beams at me. The beams killed me a lot until I remembered I had the Sky Flier. Even then I took a lot of hits and died a lot due to bad timing.

Finally beat her and am ready to move onto World 4 after I finish up catching a few more Monkeys in The Blue Baboon

Lookout Valley--Ape Escape 2

That one was tough. At least at first it was. Stupid punching monkeys. Lost 2 lives trying to catch the 7 I needed to clear the level! Oh well. I have lots of coins, so I should be able to get some 1ups and Cookies.

Now onto the Blue Baboon


Monkeys Caught--98
Monkeys Left--202

Snowball Mountain--Ape Escape 2

That one wasn't too hard, although the fact that I already had 6 of the 8 Monkeys needed to clear the level helped. the hardest ones to catch were the skiers, mainly because I had to find them as they moved through out the level and chase them down on the snowmobile.

Next stop, Lookout Valley


Monkey's Caught: 89
Monkeys Left: 211

All Caught Up--Ape Escape 2

Well, I'm all caught up. I have all the Monkeys that I should by now, plus 6 from Snowball Mountain. Not sure how many more I need to clear that stage.

Plus, thanks to the slot machines at Casino City, I have over 400 coins to unlock stuff with. but I think I will wait a bit to worry about that.
