Visit the Inverted Castle

Back in the day (the day being 1999), if you wanted to read funny gaming related news and reviews, there was the place to go Old Man Murray. That site was so damn funny it hurt. The site was also the first place I heard about the game "Serious Sam".

But alas, they have not updated in several years. And that's a real shame because I've never found another site that could quite fill their shoes. At least until now.

Inverted Castle is a refreshing new(?) site that is written by a guy who is an indie game developer and this site is his take on the wacky games that come pouring out of Japan. His style and point of view remind me so much of Chet and Erik from Old Man Murray, its almost like they are back. (kind of like when you listen to Godsmack and it reminds you of Alice In Chains).

But Inverted Castle is more than just wacky reviews, the guy writing it also posts some pretty good thoughts on what it is to be an indie developer, and anyone writing a game (or just thinking about it) should really read it.

I used to game a fair bit, but now there's not enough hours in the day!

Gaming or blogging, blogging or gaming?

It's as difficult as Daddy or Chips?
