Gunvalkyrie

The Dreamcast version's distinguishing feature was that during the game's development, GunValkyrie utilized a unique control scheme using both a light gun and a controller.

This control scheme was dropped when development shifted to the Xbox version.

The gameplay is very different from most third-person shooters, due to a unique dual analog control scheme, which is the main contributor to the steep learning curve of the game.

Players travel to various worlds investigating the disappearance of several colonies, with only giant mutated insect creatures left behind.

These insects comprise the bulk of the enemies you face along the way.

Players control Kelly or Saburouta with both analog sticks, the left controlling forward/backward movement and turning, while the right aims their weapons, and when clicked, allows quick-turns.

Clicking in the left stick while pointing in a direction causes the character to boost.

The left trigger is a boost/jump, and when combined with the left analog boost, can be strung together into combos to keep the player off the ground entirely, which is a necessity for some levels.

Face buttons are used to select weapons, and the right trigger fires the selected weapon.

The game comprises ten levels, the story unfolding via text between levels, or the occasional in-game cutscene.

Saburouta is slower, has more limited maneuverability in the air, and carries a stronger primary weapon, the Matchlock Cannon.

Basically the two characters make up the two difficulty settings, with Kelly being the "Normal", and Sab

Gunvalkyrie for Xbox is currently worth €31.74 loose, €38.01 complete in box, and €90.99 factory sealed. Prices are based on real sales and update regularly on Gamevaro.

Gunvalkyrie has a steady sales history on the tracked marketplaces, meaning it trades hands regularly and isn't considered particularly rare.

Loose means cartridge or disc only, CIB (complete in box) includes the original box and manual, and sealed means factory-sealed and never opened. For Gunvalkyrie, loose is €31.74 and CIB is €38.01 — CIB commands a premium because original boxes and manuals are fragile and often don't survive.

The PAL version of Gunvalkyrie is currently worth €31.74 loose, versus €21.87 for NTSC-U. Regional price differences usually come down to print run size and regional collector demand.
