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.

Take a crime-riddled US city, add a handful of deadly gangs, a sprinkling of vehicles and a vast openworld environment, and what do you get?

No, not GTA but the second part of SaintsRow, a third-person sandbox extravaganza that has earned its right to be mentioned in the same sentence as Rockstar’s finest.Your aim is to wipe out a trio of gangs, ideally with as much crazy driving and oddball tangents as possible. From the getgo, where you can customise your character to the nth degree, to hidden missions and bonkers activities, this game never fails to surprise and entertain.
