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.

Perfect pacing, tense stealth sections and cunning enemies, Sniper: Ghost Warrior, sadly, has none of these. Instead, a game theoretically all about sneaking into position for that perfect shot is ruined by unrealistically eagle-eyed guards who are, not only able to spot your position from half a mile away, but also capable of landing long distance machinegun fire. Mission objectives are similarly baffling, often leaving the player unsure of the nextmove. A pity as the graphics are serviceable and the sniping mechanism itself is engaging. An opportunity missed.
