Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.For the latest instalment of the Resident Evil
saga, Capcom has reimagined its special
brand of survival horror. Tracing the origins
of the virus that has proved so fertile as an
inspiration for the series, RE5 is refreshingly
different but unlike its predecessors, and
despite the tentacles, violent urges and
bleeding eyes of your foes, not very scary.
However, what it lacks in short, sharp shocks,
it makes up for in a new co-op mode and
varied gameplay that sees players switching
from tiptoeing through silent tunnels then
gunning down the undead to tackling tricky
problems in seconds.
