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.Fifa 2000 HHHH
PlayStation This is one of the few football games to withstand the test of time and now, with the help of Robbie Williams, appears to be on a new high. Fifa 2000 is a vast improvement over the last title mainly because the new, smoother graphics and intelligent gameplay have replaced the previously very jerky style in Fifa 99. As you would expect, the commentary from John Motson, Gary Lineker and Mark Lawrenson is also very impressive.

Faust HHH
PC CD-ROM This is a point-and-click detective game that uses a first-person perspective. Playing Marcellus Faust, an old man from Mississippi, you must determine the fate of seven souls captured from a mysterious theme park. Will they go to heaven or hell? You must decide. Although the graphics are impressive, and the soundtrack is a masterpiece, the gameplay soon becomes tedious and a little too repetitive.

Pharaoh HHH
PC CD-ROM This is the latest in a long line of games to copy Sim City's once innovative gameplay. It takes you back to ancient Egypt where your aim is to build up a prosperous civilisation. The graphics have a bright quirky charm while the various set missions take you slowly through the controls enabling you to master the gameplay. Not an outstanding title, but it can easily become very involving.

WWF Attitude HH
Dreamcast This wrestling game features 40 well-known WWF characters, including Triple H, Stone Cold Steve Austin, and the Rock. There are various modes of play, such as a career option, in which you must do battle with the computer for several title belts. However, despite the graphics and extensive detail, WWF Attitude is a sluggish title and can only really be recommended for die-hard WWF fans.
