The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth vs The Pit: Infinity
The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth
The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth is not the sequel to the popular indie Rogue-like game, The Binding of Isaac. Instead, this Rebirth version is simply a remake of the game featuring enhanced graphics, a better game engine, a more polished artwork as well as cleaner visual effects. The gameplay is still basically the game, with the same depressing storyline and the same crazy level of replayability. However, this time around, the game offers players the possibly of playing co-op (2 players) in addition to better support for controllers (mainly because the game is, unlike the previous, available on Xbox and Playstation), a bunch of achievements, and a long list of unique characters for its co-op mode.If you've loved The Binding of Isaac, you might want to grab The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth just for the co-op mode and the overall better gaming experience.
The Pit: Infinity
The Pit: Infinity is a creepy, sci-fi-themed, first-person shooter/roguelike that’s set in an abandoned laboratory that’s overrun by aliens and monstrous creatures, and the goal here is to descend through the many levels of the facility, clearing out enemies in hopes of finding the source and the cure to a plague that had decimated the population on that very planet. Scavenge for crucial resources, battle increasingly difficult creatures, and find the elevator that will bring you one floor closer to the bottom!However, due to the many bugs and issues with The Pit which made it looked like it's an early access game, The Pit: Infinity is unfortunately not the sort of game I would recommend you to buy – definitely not at full price - due to the huge list of bugs and issues that sorely need fixing, but that is not to say that the game isn’t playable or at all fun. I’ve managed to startle myself a good few times while playing the game and, in a resource management way, the game is actually quite satisfyingly challenging to play.
Definitely a game that you might want to add to your wishlist for now if you love the original and/or the genre, and maybe you could check in now and then to see how much of the game has been patched up over time.
