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.

The Medal of Honor franchise has received a somewhat unexpected resurrection over the last 12 months, and the release of its upcoming October reboot is preceded by an online multiplayer trial, accessible to those that order in advance. Those that also own stablemate Bad Company 2 get a couple of days extra, hence the presence of the two titles at the top of Steam's weekly top sellers chart for the week ending Sunday, June 20.

Mass Effect 1 and 2, Fallout 3, Dead Space, Burnout Paradise and Crysis were other Electronic Arts games to experience discounts over the past week.

APB, like Medal of Honor, is present by merit of pre-release sales. Also in common with Medal of Honor was an early access carrot dangled before shoppers, in this case entitling them to 8 days of play prior to June 20.

The game is made by the team behind Xbox 360 hit Crackdown, multi-platform sensation Grand Theft Auto, and the classic Lemmings. Players choose whether to be a criminal or law enforcer - it's cops and robbers on a grand scale.
