Binding of Isaac is one of the beset games ever. This is well known fact, and Afterbirth is an amazing DLC. However, Repentance is one of the biggest let downs ever. Pretty much all top tier items were nerfed, as well as removing for some reason the ability to gain blue hearts from soul fires. Things like Brimstone and Maw still cost 2 hearts but are not worthwhile pickups anymore. Everything is a little harder and the item room rarely has good items for you, and with the introduction of item quality, you'll see them less and less. A big personal sadness is that they nerfed d4, and then stripped The Lost of it. The risk/reward of The Lost holding D4 and spawning with its best possible item made the Lost one of the most unique characters across all games.

Buy Binding of Isaac. RUN to buy Rebirth. And stop there. You'll be glad you did.

(There is an absolutely amazing mod for unnerfs and while I'd normally be against modding a game like this, you will find very early on with Afterbirth that if you're going for the new boss, you will have to have a pretty stacked run from start to finish to get there.)

Spelunky is a great game. I've been playing it since it's FTP days as classic (vastly inferior). With that being said, YOU'RE NOT REACHING HELL WITHOUT CHEAT ENGINE. Unless you are a god at this game, it's insanely hard. It's still extremely difficult WITH CE, as you have to deal with fluctuation of your life values (making you die to a ton of things) and also the at least 10 (I counted exactly 10) ways to kill yourself. It's also a perma death, so you start way back at square one when you die. It's possible to beat the game (but not make it to hell) with the use of shortcuts. With that being said, even with CE it took me over 65 hours to get to hell (although my game did keep crashing, so it's more like 50+ hours. The crashes aren't because of CE, they'd happened before then). Overall, great game but too hard 8.5/10, 10/10 with CE, 9/10 with CE and constant crashes.
