Pro-G (shortened from Prodigious Gaming) is a London based commercial website focused on video game news, reviews, previews and videos. It is privately owned and operated by Pro-G Media Ltd., which was formed in June 2004^[1] by university friends Adam McCann and Tom Orry. Pro-G has grown to become one of the most important European based websites focused on video games. Pro-G is one of the largest independent media outlets based in the UK specialising in videogames content. Pro-G has come under some criticism for reviews dubbed as "unfair" and "missing the point", due to their tendency to place more importance on technical issues of a game rather than the overall experience it provides the gamer.^{[citation needed]}

Pro-G recently launched Pro-G TV, a new video streaming service, offering users video game trailers, gameplay clips, and interviews. The service is said to offer the highest video bitrate of any video game website in Europe.^[2]

Much of the content on Pro-G is syndicated to the Virgin Media portal^[3] as part of an on-going content agreement.
