Tobias Bjarneby (born 30 March 1974 in Stockholm) is one of Sweden's most noted video game magazine writers. He was the editor in chief of Super POWER magazine (renamed Super Play in 1996) from 1993 to December 2004 and has also written for Aftonbladet. Earlier, he worked for Nintendomagasinet. Currently he is the editor in chief of Level. He has advocated for public acceptance of gaming as a fashionable lifestyle rather than a geek activity.
