JM: Edmund McMillen recently posted his regular weekly update for The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth. Instead of showing a new item, Edmund decided to do a small co-op playthrough with his wife Danielle showing off a new challenge, new enemies, and much more.
The online multiplayer beta for The Binding of Isaac is offline until further notice after someone data-mined the latest build.
IGN : Ask three different video game fans to define what a “Roguelike” is, and chances are, you’re likely to get three very different responses: One might say "Oh yeah, those are like that game with the sexy greek gods!" Another might reply "No, you idiot, Hades is a Rogue-LITE. A roguelike is a game like Spelunky." And another still might slam their hands on the table and shout, "The reason why they're called rogueLIKES is because they're LIKE the 1980s dungeon crawler rogue. None of those games are roguelikes at all!"
I’ll have to agree with a comment below that Binding of Isaac is my top, but thank you for 3 recommendations that I’ve never heard of to appease my addiction. @atom666, I’ll try and see what Hades is all about as welll ☺️
My daughter and I had a blast with Rogue Legacy - our favorite by far.
We also enjoyed Undermine which I didn't see make this list unfortunately.
To me Binding of Isaac is the GOAT. No two runs in that game feel the same. The unlimited combinations of item synergies is still something no game has been able to match.
It's right that we recognize the 12 best indie games of the eight generation of gaming. It would be remiss to ignore the impact they've had.
Hollow Knight was a masterpiece. I cared less for the arena combat (Gods, not in the in-game arena) but everything was tight and the exploration was extremely enjoyable. Absolute masters of their craft in level design. I hope Silk Song gives the bees a second chance since their area was only a short subsection.
LOL @ analog slow walk. When is this damn thing coming to PS4?!? It was announced so long ago, and said to be or possibly be a PS+ free monthly game. The game is great on PC, I want this upgraded version on PS4 damnit. LOL @ it being against Nintendo's publishing rules.
"Dingle is a piece of shiiiit, literally", lol. Ahhhh, multiplayer is local co-op only, dang. Oh, wait, I guess that means it can still work on PS4 online through "Share Play" then, dope.
"Q: Will you be adding day one DLC!? i feel like the game is already ending and i need moar!!!! tell me you will be making dlc!!!!
A: NO! you have no idea how many times this is asked, the game isnt out yet. only assholes plan day one dlc that isnt included in the games release! i dont even plan dlc till a game comes out and i see what worked and what didnt. if rebirth does well and people want more, and i can dredge up more ideas.. then yes one day there will be more.. but dont ask till its out!"
That's the type of answer I like to hear to Day-1 $DLC$ questions. Well, it's coming out sometime this year, so not too long then. Can't wait!!
I love the day 1 DLC answer, he's gained a new fan in me. I remember though that this was scheduled to be the free game for March PS+. I'm guessing something went pretty bad somewhere as almost 7 months later we still havnt seen it.
This is my most anticipated game of 2014. It really is gonna be a beautiful thing...
