This is Rick. He's the creepy guy who has had the permanent "I'm going to kill you in your sleep" look all season.


This is just one of many things that bothers me about Falling Skies.

He keeps going on and on about how he likes the aliens better, how they're his real parents, how cool they are, how much he wants to return to them, and how he doesn't give a rat's ass about humans.

In Episode 7, he finally reveals that he thinks he's an alien. I really appreciated the dramatic "shocking reveal" music when he said this too, like it hasn't been plainly obvious this entire time and that the story hasn't been leading up to this point all along.

I hate it when writers do this.. now there will be an annoying story where his sudden but inevitable betrayal puts the survivors in jeopardy.

Now that his dad is out of the way, all of this can finally happen.. talk about your contrived situations. The other cliche that pisses me off is how everyone is keeping really important secrets to themselves.

When my world is being destroyed by aliens and I discover their weaknesses, I definitely won't share that information with anyone.

And why is it taking them so long to dissect an alien when they've had plenty of bodies since the beginning? Those skitters better not be converted humans or genetically engineered soldiers.. that will really piss me off.

What ever happened to good story telling?

Professor Tom says at the end of the episode, "Next time I'll trust my instincts." Rick keeps telling everyone how he hates them and wants to kill them.. your instincts and judge of character are poor to say the least.

Well at least now, I hope the writers can get rid of the creepy kid.

For some reason, IGN reported how the Diablo 3 Beta icon "secretly" appeared on Battle.net and then went on to say that "supposed insiders" have suggested that the Diablo 3 beta was scheduled for release this summer.

Even "internet detectives" have unearthed new Diablo III info on Battle.net. [LINK]

IGN, this has been a known fact for some time now. Even Michael Morhaime officially announced that the Diablo 3 beta was targeted for July-Sept 2011. Everyone has known that the beta was going to start during the last few months of 2011, but insiders have announced that D3 was going to be announced at Blizzcon for a Christmas release. Beta testing for Blizzard is really just a sneak peek of the game.. even during beta testing periods, they've hardly made any changes to the game before retail launch.

You know what? Boubouille has inspired my to create my own fake news leak and allow other people to take initial credit for it.

I'll use just basic or reasonable information to create some kind of leak, something that will fool multiple news sites and blogs.

Although I can't reveal any information here, I might use code or image attachments that way information on the "leak" can't be found using search engines. I'll call it "Project Bubu" henceforth, and maybe start with something small and easy first.

** Update:

Well.. I create a fake leak that looked legitimate, but it sat there for like 3 weeks and no one noticed. I was really disappointed.. apparently, there very few people that search online resumes through Google looking for unannounced games.

So, I ended up creating a puzzle that leaked REAL information. I dropped hints with Siliconera, Kotaku, and Superannutation. I'm amazed that another few weeks have passed and they never even looked into the information. It was fully real, and users would have loved to hear about this information that wouldn't be announced for another month yet. So disappointed.. it's like I need to spell everything out for these guys.
