According to ESRB, this game contains: Mild Language, Violence

Parents have little to be concerned with. The violence in the game is not graphic or gratuitous, but fantasy action in the vein of popular science fiction films.

Xbox owners, particularly fans of Halo or Max Payne, should get a kick out of the intense action of Gunvalkyrie.

Fans of shooters, especially the cult classic Panzer Dragoon, should definitely enjoy the game. Oddly enough, many people who saw me playing the game commented on its similarities to Nintendos Metroid games. There are some interesting parallels, so fans of the series patiently awaiting Metroid Prime might enjoy it. Gunvalkyrie is a bit tough to learn, and seems more focused on the advanced gamer. However, a little patience is all it takes to enjoy this truly unique shooter.

Deaf and Hard of Hearing gamers will not miss out on anything particularly vital to the gameplay, save for some minor audio cues.
