There's surely no better place to spend your Memorial Day holiday than a dank basement, so slap down $3 for The Binding of Isaac's DLC expansion Wrath of the Lamb. Out today, it adds five new chapters along with new enemies, bosses, room types, items, and a new final (final) boss. Wrath of the Lamb is sold through Steam for $2.99. Here's the official run-down on the the many, many shiny new things WotL adds:

100+ new items! (now over 235 items!)
5+ new chapters!
20+ new enemies!
25 new achievements!
15+ new bosses!
6+ new room types!
6+ new mysterious item drops (eternal hearts, playing cards, dimes and more!)
5+ new music tracks by Danny B
A new item type, Trinkets
A new challenge mode with 10 unique challenges that unlock more content
A new unlockable character, Samson (The Beserker)
A new final (final) chapter and boss with new endings
Tons of new random happenings, curses, blessings, npcs, fortune tellers and more!
Also more super secrets than you'd probably expect... good luck finding them all.

Which is certainly a respectable amount of content for three bucks.

  Might want to hold off a little bit on this one. It's extremely buggy with everything from annoying to game breaking.

  The Expansion is more than I paid for the game in a Steam Sale :P. I did sink a hell of a lot more hours into this game than I though I would though, but I still haven't finished it, I hate it.

  Instabought today, and also as luck would have it, killed Mom for the first time after some 15-20 hours of play!
  
  Had some lucky drops though, came across the Dead Dove (awesome item!) early on, got some extra HP's and dmg items then got The Mark from the Caves I. Done a ton of damage :D

  I can't really stand playing this game now for some reason. Blew about 80 hours in it and it just never sounds fun anymore.

      i got to almost an hour. i couldn't tell if it would save when i quit and i have no interest in replaying a game over and over when i eventually die or leaving a game running for hours on end on pause because i have other things to do.
      
      plus the controls are really rough, especially how the aiming and shooting works. sometimes you'd shoot and it will go far other times land in an obstacle it can normally shoot over. try to enable a controller for a DUAL STICK shooter and it tells you to google some 3rd party app that will do keyboard to gamepad. nice, no thanks.
