T.G. Swenson

A Tumblr with no central theme except to share things that amuse or interest me. I am 24 years old and living in Iowa City, IA with my wife and loving every moment of it. Currently at Kirkwood Community College and will be transferring to University of Iowa soon. Love reading books and comics, writing fiction, collecting old books and books with interesting inscriptions in them, watching all sorts of movies, playing video games (PS3 ID: TessionTG, PC - Steam: Swenny), hockey (Buffalso Sabres and St. Louis Blues fan since Kansas City still has no NHL team... *sigh* Hopefully they will someday).

What subjects will you see here: Anime (a lot of One Piece and FLCL lately), manga, comic books, super heroes, video games, rpgs, jrpgs, books, fantasy fiction, science fiction, creative writing, maybe some of my own fiction if I muster up the courage to share, favorite quotes, hockey, Buffalo Sabres, maybe some personal views of mine, art, illustrations (those that I find worth sharing and tend to be fantasy/sci-fi), concept art (for video games, books, comics, etc), things relating to Iowa and/or Iowa City,aaaand some other stuff but that is most of it.

Got my copy of Pandora’s Tower today! Thank you Operation Rainfall for the hard work you put in to show that America wants gems like these to be available to us! Also, thank you XSEED Games for bringing us The Last Story and Pandora’s Tower. You’ve definitely become my favorite game company with bringing those and all the many other games that no one would (Way of the Samurai 4 as one example - was dying to play it and you brought it). These 3 games have made the Wii a console worth owning and I hope Nintendo gets their act together and brings us more of what we want (another printing of Xenoblade would be great for those unfortunate enough to not get a copy - going for $100+ online - or to make these and other great games available digitally). Enjoy your journey in the Thirteen Towers everyone!

Crytek: We’ll make TimeSplitters HD if 300,000 fans demand it. 
Sign the petition here!

If there is a good enough response to an HD collection (and it sells well) it may lead to TimeSplitters 4 actually being made. Spread and share the petition with others!

Earth Seeker intro

Why should you care about this game?
First off, this is a monster hunting game by a former producer of Monster Hunter. If you are a fan of that series, or other action/RPGs, you’ll definitely want to check this game out. Also, the art style is fantastic; the team that designed the concept art and final in-game graphics did a wonderful job making the most of the Wii console. Anyone who is down for a huge, action packed adventure, will want to play this game.

I’ve been playing The Last Story on my Wii lately. Game is sooooo good! Have yet to play multiplayer but I think I’ll be giving it a try tonight. 

I hope I’ll soon be able to play Pandora’s Tower. I read that the Wii U will have backwards compatibility for Wii games, so why isn’t it being made here yet!?

“Please, Nintendo, may I have some more?”
Such a good use for Oliver Twist haha! Being the huge literature nerd that I am, I had to share this.

You bought Kinect Star Wars instead of Xenoblade Chronicles? Find a fire and die in it.
