Episode #115: Injustice: Gods Among Us / Monaco / Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon / Poker Night 2 / Sacred Citadel / Defiance
Signed In returns with brand new equipment, a brand new recording space, and the same tired old hosts you forgot you missed! A handful of Indie Games at the start of the show with Zombie Compound, Marshmallow Duel, War Rapier 43210, JamSouls!, Planet Wars, and Magnetic by Nature: Awakening. A plethora of XBLA titles hit over our absence and the crew digs into most if not all of them with Sacred Citadel, God Mode, Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon, Way of the Dogg, Poker Night 2, and Monaco. Sean has some closing thoughts on Army of Two: The Devil’s Cartel and a quick look at Defiance, and Jeremy and Sean decide there must be something not right with Injustice: Gods Among Us.

Thank you for your support.
It’s a small statement, and not even anywhere close to the appreciation everyone here at Pseudo Radio feels, but it’s a good starting point. The outpouring of support for our studio relocation and new equipment purchasing has been tremendous and completely unexpected. We set a moderate goal to assist with our out of pocket costs and our followers and supporters put us over 180% of that initial public goal. It was surprising and inspiring. We hope to be able to return that support by continuing to put together the most entertaining shows that we can. As of this update all the new equipment has been purchased, the logistics of the new recording locations are coming together, and soon we’ll all be diving back in to get back on track with the shows. For example….Signed In #115 will be live next Monday, 5/13! (And we’ll try our best to keep it from being a 6-7 hour show!)
Thanks again to everyone who donated, shared our mission socially, or even just offered up words of encouragement! We greatly appreciate everyone continuing to support what we’ve done over the years and all of us here at Pseudo Radio hope to keep entertaining, informing, and maybe even irritating you for years to come!

A special message from the Signed In crew in regards to our recent equipment fundraising efforts!
You can contribute to our new equipment fundraiser by credit card via Crowdtilt or by using Paypal by clicking the donate button right here on the Signed In website! Huge thanks to those that have already donated and/or helped spread the word!
A Very Special Message From Signed In
As mentioned on Signed In #114, the current studio setup for all Pseudo Radio recordings will be changing at the end of April. Due to this change, we will actually be branching out into two separate studio setups. This will require duplication of the equipment that we currently use to produce our programing.
On the show, we pointed folks wanting to assist in our efforts to the “Donate” button located here on our website. (Some of you have even already showed your support and it’s appreciated more than we could ever express!) However, since this is affecting all the shows under the Pseudo Radio umbrella, we found it important to establish a donation option that is more neutral and inclusive of all of our current programming. In light of this we have setup a group fund project via Crowdtilt.
–CLICK HERE TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE PSEUDO RADIO CROWDTILT CAMPAIGN–
For those unaware, here’s a few things to note about the Crowdtilt process:
- Using this type of donation will allow anyone with a credit/debit card to contribute, not just those with a Paypal account.
- You can setup a quick login if you’re not already a user, or sign on using your Facebook info. (I believe nothing is ever posted to your actual FB page without your doing so directly, so no worries of them spamming your feed.)
- There is no minimum donation amount. Want to give us $1? We will gladly accept! Every little bit helps!
- Crowdtilt charges a 2.5% fee on top of your donation amount. Please keep this in mind and build it into your contribution accordingly.
- No one is charged unless our goal is met. (In an effort to make this campaign successful, we have set our goal significantly lower than our total estimated cost. Any amount received exceeding our goal will go towards the full equipment fees and/or our ongoing monthly/annual hosting costs.)
- Crowdtilt relies on networking and word of mouth. Even if you are not able to contribute, sharing and spreading the word about our fundraiser is much appreciated! The campaign page even has social network share options right on the page!
- If you’ve already contributed via the donate button here on the Signed In site, rest assured that those contributions will also be rolled into the Crowdtilt campaign and go towards our overall goal!
If you’ve been with us through the 5 years we’ve been creating podcasts in the Pseudo Radio family, you know that this is a pretty atypical occurrence for us. We pride ourselves on our independence and ability to remain cost and advertising free for the listeners. We appreciate the generosity and support of all our listeners and, occasional jokes aside, it’s something that we will never take for granted or abuse.
If you have any questions/concerns/comments feel free to hit me up directly at comments@signedinpodcast.com or give us a shout over on our forums!
Thanks as always for everyone’s support and encouragement!

Craig does all the heavy lifting for Indie Games this episode but comes prepared with Retro Arcade Adventure Remade, Smatter, Death Goat, and Rise of the Ravager. Sean and Craig make death traps with Terreria, the existence of Double Dragon II is questioned, and BattleBlock Theater proves to be worth the wait. Everybody throws down with the Injustice: Gods Among Us Demo, Sean wraps up Gears of War: Judgment, Sean and Jeremy blow lots of stuff up in Army of Two: The Devil’s Cartel, and there’s plenty of shock and awe with Bioshock Infinite.
