The Binding of Isaac

Holy fuck is this game hard. I haven't even made it to the Mom battle yet, after 17 tries. I hate it so much. Why do I keep playing it.


One second:
"Haha! Look at that, I'm runnin around with a bra on my head! This game is great!"


Ten minutes later:
"GODDAMMIT GLUTTONY FUCK YOU FUCK THIS GAME AND FUUUUUUCK YOU TEAM MEAT"

seriously this game sucks. don't buy it.

In a good way or a bad way? Because I might be mildly masochistic.

If you love increased blood pressure, screaming at pixels and punching walls, this game is definitely for you.

its like....original Zelda: A Link to the Past-styled gameplay, bird's eye view, Super Meat Boy graphics/gameplay, and more fast paced (like SMB) i saw the game play of it, meh

not my type of game. If you liked SMB you'd probs like this game

Not to mention it's a rougelike, meaning every time you start over, the level layouts, the boss order, and the upgrades are all different. It's enough to keep you coming back for another hour or so until you ragequit again.

Well, I just beat it a few minutes ago, so I'll give my two cents on the game.

On one hand, its an extremely well developed game, taking pages out of Zelda for the theme, and it will be very entertaining for quite a while. The level layouts are very well thought out, (By that, I mean COMPLETELY RANDOM) and bosses are very original.

On the other hand THIS GAME WILL MAKE YOU ITS BITCH. By that I mean this game can either be laughingly easy (I beat the game with a combo of 9-Volt, Battery, Brimstone, Lord of the pit, and deck of cards, which essentially makes you a flying, lazer breathing, card producing demon.) or BALLS TO THE WALL HARD. Some bosses are completely unfair with their abilities unless you have certain items to counter them.

The game is hilarious at points (Like Vetos' said, there is nothing more hilarious than seeing some poor boy running around with lipstick and a bra on his head) and frustrating at others. It can be a great time waster, but don't think because your new the game will be easy on you. IT WONT >:D

It has amazing graphics as well, taking pages from super meat boy's color scheme and character shading (Extremely bolded outlines, kinda cartoony.) Some of the items in it are original, while others are very copied off other games (There is a 1-Up Mushroom in it, after all.)

In a nutshell/TL;DR - If Super Meat Boy was Mario's Hell, this is Zelda's Hell.

I've killed Mom weeks ago. You guys are slow :P

Eh, I'm just messing around. Yeah, it's pretty tough, but I was hooked when it first came out. Now that I killed Mom, I'll pick it up on occasions. (or more than that, since I should kill Satan now)

This is a good game.

Don't brag about stuff like that :P Have you gotten the Forget me now yet? Or golden god achievement? :3

On the note of bragging, no it is not going to be free, but considering how much he's given us for a very cheap game, i think it would be only fair to pay a small amount.
