The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth [Released!]

Post by Maha » Fri Sep 05, 2014 2:01 pm

So the trailer for The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth is now out. The game now has a set release day of November 4th. You also get a little pre-order discount if you own the original game on Steam.



For those of you who are unfamiliar with The Binding of Isaac it's a top-down 2D roguelike game in which the player controls Isaac or one of six other unlockable characters as they explore the dungeons located in Isaac's room's basement while trying to escape his insane mother that's trying to sacrifice him to "God" just like in the Bible story...sorta.

Now onto what Rebirth actually is:

Rebirth is a remake of the original 'The Binding of Isaac' with more bosses, items, rooms, enemies, and other stuff all in the style the developer actually wanted to do instead of the Flash version the original was.

Probably wouldn't want Rebirth as it's supposed to be even harder. Also you got like 4 more floors even after you beat Mom's Foot. ;P

Isaac is my Dark Souls. I know this game, I love this game.

The main reason I never got into this game is because of the gross art style.
Django-Oh lord, take my lunch money. Please, don't hurt me!
Waterbear- You're dumb and stupid btw and i hate you for saying that forever
Adam- You are right. It's time we all stopped hiding. I'm a girl gamer and I know Joe, RottenCheese and Waterbear are too.

That was a fuckin' weird-ass trailer. I've never played The binding of Isaac, but this looks interesting.

I think they're just calling the art style bad.







I agree!

I agree!
Generally when someone just brings up the word 'gross' I assume they're referring to something disgusting/morbid, which this game totally is, but if he just means 'bad' then he'd probably just say 'bad'. But my point is that Dark Souls can be pretty damn morbid/gross and I find it strange that Isaac's art style bothers people, but Dark Souls doesn't.

I'll play this if it has fucking controller support. Did that ever get added for the original? Because I have it but haven't bothered to install it in ages because I could never get over trying to play a game like this with a keyboard.

Not saying it can't be referred to as "bad" just saying I equate it to something morbid or disgusting. Which with Isaac it is, with the gross baby monsters, gore, satanic items, etc.

I'm so going to try and get a family member to do the co-op in this.
Though, unless it is a little brother mode (like Sonic 2 and playing as Tails), doubt we'll make much headway.
