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.Space Bastards HH
PC CD-ROM This is a platform romp spread over more than 100 levels, featuring sexist jokes, soundbites from Zulu and James Bond films and with an 18 certificate. Despite the relatively straightforward control system the game suffers, ultimately because of a lack of gameplay. Every level is completed in the same way, and while they do become progressively harder, none of them really require much thought to complete.

Ready 2 Rumble Boxing HHHH
Dreamcast A one or two player boxing game from Midway, Ready 2 Rumble Boxing boasts stunning 3D graphics and more camera angles than you can shake a stick at. On top of this there are a wide range of moves that can be used by the stylised boxing characters. While the one player game might have somewhat limited appeal, the two player option ensures combatants will still be slugging it well into the new millennium.

Incoming HHH
Dreamcast The planet is under attack from evil alien forces and only you can stop them. Welcome to the world of Incoming. Players control a variety of futuristic military vehicles as they do battle with the alien aggressors over 65 different levels. The graphics and sound are outstanding and outstrip anything seen on any other home format. However, while it's certainly very playable, you may not hang around for all 65 missions.

Dark Stone: Evil Reigns HHH
PC CD-ROM Dark Stone offers players the chance to wander around an entire 3D world, interacting with its numerous inhabitants. The game strikes a nice balance between action and adventure, providing plenty of baddies to slaughter. The user interface is easy to master but the omission of a problem solving element might make the game a little simple for genre veterans. But, despite that, it's still worth a look.
