Pro-G Media launches Pro-G TV and appoints Producer
London, England, February 9 2007: Pro-G Media, publisher of the popular UK video games editorial website Pro-G, today expanded its offering with the launch of Pro-G TV, a new and cutting-edge video streaming service now available at www.pro-g.tv.
Content on the service will be updated every weekday with new game trailers and official videos. Shortly after the launch, the publication will begin to produce high-quality original video content, aimed squarely at consumers. Managing the development of this original content will be newly appointed Producer Nick Peres, who has production experience with several organisations including the BBC, the Ministry of Defence, and Free Range Television.
The launch has been kick-started with a campaign for Eidos’ latest game, Battlestations: Midway, demonstrating some of the unique marketing opportunities this new service has created for games publishers.
The Pro-G TV player utilises the very latest technology in combination with proprietary software to provide a seamless experience for users, and offers the highest quality video stream of any games website in Europe, alongside two lower speeds to cater for users with slower internet connections. The video player also pioneers complete integration with the rest of the website, and enables users to rate their anticipation of upcoming games, providing useful statistical information to consumers, publishers, and retailers alike.
Commenting on the launch, Pro-G Media’s Operations Director Adam McCann said: "The launch of Pro-G TV is great news for everyone; for consumers it provides an increasingly comprehensive resource for all types of game videos, delivered at an unparalleled quality, and for publishers a highly effective tool for marketing their games.
"The company has been developing the service since early 2005, and having overcome the enormous technical hurdles associated with delivering such high quality video to a global audience, it’s fantastic to see it launch. The website’s readership has experienced astounding growth in the past 12 months and these are very exciting times for the company. We very much look forward to the introduction of original content and developing Pro-G TV further."
