Again, unlike many games which use X to jump, both the R1 and R2 buttons are used, while the 'shape' buttons are used to cycle through the available items in the inventory. It was the first PlayStation game to require the use of a DualShock controller the left stick moves the character while the right operates whatever gadget the player has in his/her possession. The Ape Escape series is notable from its radical departure from the tried-and-true control method in most other games.
