It is operated by Gamer Network Ltd. with headquarters in Brighton, East Sussex. It was formed in 1999 by brothers Rupert and Nick Loman while they were in secondary school. Gamer Network states that the site has the largest readership of any independent videogames website in Europe (over 5.7 million unique users in November 2011),[3] and was the first such site to subject its traffic to independent verification by the ABC Electronic system.[4] The site primarily caters to a UK/Ireland audience; Gamer Network operates other sites using the Eurogamer brand that caters to other European countries. Most of its reviews are of European or PAL releases of games.
