Cant seem to find it any cheaper at the moment on PC. On offer for next 10 days on the Humble Store. This is the enhanced 64-bit version, with updated graphics and added features.

Word of warning don't mod this game at all if you're connected to the internet. My friend installed some graphics mods and got a soft ban (e.g. no online play) because of it. Pretty ridiculous if you ask me...

It has all the DLC added in.
More NPC summons and the ability to summon up to 3 people now.
Enemy layouts are tweaked and it makes them generally less frustrating (there are a couple of exceptions, Heide and Iron Keep are notably worse). Lots of little surprises sprinkled throughout the game.
There's a new final boss that appears if you complete all the DLC areas.
It's generally a better game, especially worth playing if you haven't played the DLC before (the 3 DLC together take around 50% of the time the original game took by themselves).
