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.Two of this year's biggest video game trailers both use Kanye West's "Power" as soundtrack - Forza Motorsport 4 and Saints Row: The Third.
"The selection of the song 'Power' was actually something that was written into the [trailer's] script originally," explains Saints Row lead writer Steve Jaros in the commented video uploaded Monday.
"All of the beats were timed to the music, and we spent a lot of time massaging the track."
The trailer was also packed with references to the Saints gang's superstar status.
Did you spot a Saints energy drink, champagne, and branded clothing first time around? The Power trailer also revealed a secret deal between the Saints and power mad mega-corp Ultor.
One of the Saints has become a reality TV star, the gang is aided by an ex-FBI agent, and Monica Hughes - city mayor in Saints Row 2 - is now a US senator.
Saints Row: The Third is to be released during the week of November 15. That's at the same time as another big free-roaming game, Assassin's Creed Revelations, and about a month after Batman: Arkham City and Dead Rising 2: Off The Record.
