Lindstrom Knows Everything, everything that matters, anyway Options

[Hasfusel]

Rondo of Blood is with Richter? I want it now. Don't know how I can get my hands on it, though; don't have a PSP or a Sega Saturn.

[Lindstrom]

I don't drink beer because I don't like the taste. Wine, however, is pretty awesome. You might enjoy that, I suppose. A description from me won't really give you an idea how it tastes, but it's no secret that wine tastes much better.


Rondo of Blood is with Richter. The goal is not only to kill Dracula but also rescue Richter's girlfriend Annette, Annette's sister Maria (who becomes playable after rescueing), and two other village girls, all of whom are hidden throughout the game. There are a few versions of it:

- The original version, for some old ass Japan-only system. You'd have to use an emulator to play this, and there are some Japanese and German dubbed cutscenes.
- The SNES port, Dracula X, which is Richter only and is generally shorter and harder and all around less cool, since they remove most of the hidden levels and the 2 village girls
- The PSP remake, Dracula X Chronicles, which is the original but with added features, enhanced graphics, English voice acting, and comes with Symphony of the Night as a bonus

The original version is available worldwide on Wii Ware for 900 points.

Thanks for the information, I didn't know about the Wii thing. I suppose when I get a Wii eventually I'll go for it.

Would you rather marry Liv Tyler or have a brief, noncommitted relationship with Audrey Tatou?
Also, have you played the original Rayman? If you want inspiration for your platform game there's nowhere better to look.

[Harvest Moon Rac...]

I've sipped wine and find it much better. Beer always seems dry, and I can't stand the stuff. Then again somethings you have to drink differently for the better taste, so maybe I just don't know how to really drink it, where wine just seems to be much better. I sound a bit alcoholic only being 15 though now I guess (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalaexdee.gif) I don't really drink I just have had sips. Anyways, ever been in a car crash/ accident?

[Lindstrom]

Audrey Tautou, I'd like to think I could make it work and she'd decide to stick around longer.

I've never played any Rayman games. Just a side note, Richter is playable in Portrait of Ruin as well.

I've been in more car accidents where other people are driving, only been in one where I drove, which was during a snowstorm. Generally they're quite surprising, almost surreal and dreamlike cuz it's all "did that just happen?"

[Hasfusel]

The original 2D platformer is the only one worth anything. A version is available on DSi Ware for sure, as well as for PS1 and possibly for download if you look hard. It's definately worth it for a number of reasons.

What kind of exercise routine do you have?

[Lindstrom]

I don't say I actively exercise, it's more like I'm just a very physically active person. Generally I do a lot of bike riding, walking, things like that.

What's the biggest purchase you've ever made?

[Lindstrom]

My car, for $2000. Cars are by far the most expensive thing to buy. I'd probably say some sort of medical treatment if I had anything that exceeded a few hundred dollars, if you count those.

[IdlersDream]

Have you ever truly been in love? Or do you even believe in "true love"?

[Darth-Paper-Boy]

Did you ever wish to eat the dishes?

[Lindstrom]

I think my idea of love is different than the classical interpretation. To me, the kind of love I'd have with a girl is like, we're best friends who also find each other attractive so we fool around and stuff. There's no need for the sappy, sentimental stuff, though that's not to say we can't be, just that like, nothing is forced, there aren't any expectations or demands or anything. Anyway before I get too carried away trying to explain myself, I'd just say that I've only had one relationship close to that, but not quite. If we were older and more self-actualized (and if she didn't have to move away with her family) it would've been perfect.

Yes, many times. One day I hope we have like, tortilla dishes everywhere or something.

[IdlersDream]

I agree with you on love. That's what I'd like to find with someone. Because when most people think they're in love it's usually a lot of lust and simple physical attraction, and marriages that are based off of that never work out and you end up becoming sick of the person. Whereas people who can be best friends can find it easier to be with the person for years and not be sick of them. Not to say I don't enjoy the odd romantic comedy or romance book.... xp

How many pictures of you are in your living room?

[Lindstrom]

One, from when I was like, 14 or something. My hair is all in my face and it's not a very good picture.

[Harvest Moon Rac...]

Ever been fishing before? If so what was your biggest/ best catch?

[Lindstrom]

Plenty of times, whether in lakes or the ocean, but the fish themselves weren't anything memorable. Fishing is kind of dull on its own, actually.

[Harvest Moon Rac...]

I find it to be pretty enjoyable with friends, and some family. But fishing alone does seem rather boring. Have a favorite snack food?

[Lindstrom]

I don't really snack, to be honest. For some reason my stomach just wants filling amounts of food at meal times, and everything else just doesn't do it.

[IdlersDream]

How many days a week do you work? Do you know how many hours a week?

[Lindstrom]

30 hours a week (5 days/week) as far as documented, paid time goes. I usually have to do some research from home as well that I'm not being paid for but it's not a big deal. I also do some graphic design for the same college and going to be interning for a wind turbine company.
