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.The new Project Gotham Racing title is always big news and PGR4 is no exception, not least because it has broken with tradition and thrown high-performance bikes into the driving mix.
The cities and tracks are as glossy as ever and the weather conditions have been painstakingly recreated in their elemental glory. Spare a thought for the game’s designers – they have spent the past two years taking tens of thousands of photos to get each patch of tarmac spot on, making the game as accurate as possible.
The updated Kudos points system gives drivers the chance to gain high scores by pulling off slick stunts. The developers have also realised that not everyone wants to play in quite the same way, hence the myriad modes. There’s also the opportunity to get really geeky by using the photo mode to capture images of your race glories. An impressive fourth outing for this iconic series.
