    I can understand why this game has had such polar reivews. It's got a great introspective story, in a stylish and original universe. But it does lack a certain polish in spots, and of course the control is poor. Mostly just the camera control is unintuitive. Overall I think it's a respectable game, but nothing too special.

    It all looks lush and the gameplay is surprisingly enjoyable despite the frustration, but it's not one for the casual gamer.

    Valkyrie's controls are so klunky...it feels worse than just awkward, it literally hurts to play Valkyrie for more than a couple hours at a time. [Spring 2002, p.82]

    It's throw-your-controller-across-the-room-in-frustration difficult...and you'll love it.
