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.Developers at UK's Evolution Studios have pumped out the first in a series of video diaries, emphasising what they hope will become the selling points of an action-packed urban racer, Motorstorm: Apocalypse.
They chat about making this, the fourth in the Motorstorm series, both more accessible to beginners and more challenging for those that stay the course, and tease the prospect of hidden features.
"Players will experience certain levels of predictability that will at least allow them to learn the tracks, but they're never too sure what's around the corner," says design manager Si Barlow just as a buggy hurtles over the crest of a hill and collides with a speeding motorcyclist.
The team boasts of five new vehicle classes added to the previous eight, and a film composer's soundtrack reassembled by a cohort of DJs and remixers.
Apocalypse marks the series' plunge into a more metropolitain setting, as racers converge upon a collapsing deserted city, leading to easy comparisons with sprawling urban racer Burnout Paradise and the unexpected destruction of Split/Second.
Motorstorm: Apocalypse is due out in 2011 on PlayStation 3, currently expected to land during March or April.
