Video Game Saga *

From 411Mania.com:

The Binding of Isaac is almost at 450,000 copies sold.

While talking to IndieGames, Edmund McMillen said, "It's just ridiculous, there's no reason for this game to have done well. It's nice for everyone involved.

"When I started development on Isaac, I wasn't even sure if I should charge for it, because I didn't think people would want it, in all honestly. I had to shop it around to a bunch of different developers, and say like 'Do you think I could sell this?', because I thought it was way too weird, I thought the content was too disturbing and creepy. I thought it would just rub too many people the wrong way and I thought the design was just too hardcore for any kind of mass amount of people to enjoy."

Now, in addition to being available online, The Binding of Isaac: Unholy Edition will be available in retail stores on March 16.

The box will contain a DRM-free PC and Mac version, as well as a free Steam gift key. Also in there is the soundtrack, poster and 40-page art book.
