So I'm bound to purchase this.
At any rate, interesting ideas, game looks good. Definitely will be pre-purchasing it the moment it makes Steam headlines.

Binding of Isaac's creepy baby heads coming in September
Edmund McMillen's latest personal project, The Binding of Isaac, looks as weird as everything else the man has ever done in videogames. The latest trailer appears to place its focus on the variety of enemies Isaac will encounter as he flees his mother. It was made by James ID (who also made the totally radical 90's Super Meat Boy trailer) and is a little unsettling for some reason I can't put my finger on. Maybe it's the bald, naked, screaming guy. You'll be able to pick up The Binding of Isaac next month on Steam (PC and Mac) for the saintly sum of $5. Did you know? You can now get daily or weekly email notifications when humans reply to your comments.
Legacy Comments (will be imported soon)I love Super Meat Boy, and I love the idea of whatever this is... twin-stick shooter mixed with rogue-like RPG elements and high replayability.
So I'm bound to purchase this. I'm pleasantly surprised the dev only charged 5 dollars for this. After the awesomeness that is Super Meat Boy, I thought they'd try to increase the price of their next game.
