Look: news about us. New York marketing agency Giant Realm announced today that it's signed an exclusive US representation deal with VG247.

“We are providing a valuable service to media buyers by delivering scale in high-quality, highly-engaged environments,” said Giant Realm co-founder Keith Kane.

“The sites within the Giant Realm Publisher Group all have a common thread: they are for fans, by fans. They attract men who enjoy socializing with other like-minded visitors and who regularly return to their online asylum.

"Given today’s multi-tasking society, it’s critical for marketers to have an advertising vehicle such as ours that can capture their target audience’s attention quickly and effectively.”

Apparently, VG247 is "the fast-growing news service for serious gamers and industry professionals looking for a quick yet comprehensive read. The site features hard news, exclusive content, breaking stories, informed gossip and public domain information from around the world."
