Favorite memories with this game? I remember getting Sad Onion and Number One and a bunch of range up pills, then picking up the Cancer trinket in the Womb, back when I hadn't unlocked the Cathedral. That was a fun trip to the Heart, I didn't want to stop firing.

Getting Polyphemus, Mutant Spider, and Wiggle Worm. It was like a shotgun blast of tears.

I remember the time when WOTL was just released, and all the new items had exaggerated spawn rates so people had a chance to see them all. I miss getting Sacred Heart and Polyphemus every run.

The game's on sale for -74 cents- today and tomorrow, just over a dollar with the DLC. That gets you a five dollar discount on Rebirth, which is a pretty good deal.

Remember last year when we were excited for this?
Bumping this topic with a bit of news. Binding of Isaac Rebirth has been confirmed to be one of November's free PS4 games through PS+. I may still pick up the Steam version, I dunno, but this is a pretty important note for anyone thinking of preordering with that $5 discount last minute.

Also, if you're interested in getting that $5 discount on the PC version, the original BoI is 75% off again as part of Steam's Halloween sale.

But still, less than a week. The hype is too real.

Jesus christ, there are so many goddamn broken item combos.
I got Quad Shot + Giant in one run, and had a legit shotgun going

I've been playing this almost nonstop. Some items I really like:

So So
I just got Mama's Boy and I don't think I should've. In the original, it required you to not take damage on both levels of The Womb, but I took damage on the first level and still got it.

I did have the Dead Cat which gave me 9 Lives and I died a couple times on the 1st floor boss before beating it, then when I jumped down I popped an Emperor Card and used The Bible right away and the achievement unlocked.

Not really complaining, that achievement was a real bitch to get in the original, but it was unexpected. Time to get Spelunker and Dark Boy now.

Any fix for that BEX error yet? A friend of mine got the game running on a 1.20 single core, but I got that when I downloaded a 'demo'.

My first run of Rebirth, I got Chocolate Milk, Polyphemous and Triple Shot, and Lard, making me an enemy destroying tank. Then I got Technology 2 and everything was ruined (fuck Technology 2).

Still won though. You know you're out of practice when you take damage on Gemini.

I had a Beastmaster run where I had four familiars and Cricket's Head for good measure. When I beat Mom's Heart it gave me access to the Cathedral as well, so I beat Isaac too. He's pretty different, especially the last phase.

Derp moment of the day: in a boss rush room, I passed up Ludovico Technique for Cain's Other Eye because I thought it might've been Polyphemus. >_>

I haven't been able to play due to known incompatabilities with my graphics card, thank god they're working on making a workaround.
