Nice try, Sega, maybe next time...
The Good
It has that usual SEGA "polish" about it. It's very difficult, but it never feels un-fair. Graphically and sonically, it's likeable.
The Bad
Too damn repetitive, with not enough incentive to go on through the levels. Feels slightly unfinished.
The Bottom Line
It's a hard one to describe to others, as everyone has a different opinion on this game. I gave it to a friend of mine, who came back the next day claiming it was one of the best things he's ever played. A toughie to say, really.

Trivia
Development
Smilebit was originally going to release Gunvalkyrie for the Sega Dreamcast. The early demise of the Dreamcast pushed development to the Xbox. In addition, early on Gunvalkyrie was going to incorporate a light-gun into the gameplay but this was ultimately scrapped.
