Yeah wish they would of have done that with cryokenesis, though James walker could still be the one with it, and sylar just froze his body afterwards. Not the greatest episode but i did like them showing Arthur and Linderman together. I think Hiro will still freeze time before Artur can steal his powers, or maybe mid way through stealing them as a way to weaken Hiro up a bit.

Doubt it, Molly's dad was frozen mid bite of his breakfast.
I get the feeling Ando might intervene by attacking Arthur distracting him so Hiro can teleport away, I don't think freezing time would work since Arthur has that power and when Hiro froze time to kill Adam Monroe Peter was unaffected, this could potentially involve him having to leave Ando behind and explaining how he turns against Hiro for being abandoned and gets given a power - i.e Arthur captures him and experiments on him.

Whatever power that was Sylar acquired did not look like Cryokinesis, which he gets at some point before killing the next person on that list -James Walker, Molly's dad. Technically shattering things like that could be an advanced usage of it but why not just show it directly being Cyrokinesis and fill out that nice 'plothole' of where he gained the ability to freeze Molly's dad solid before removing his brain. Then again this is Heroes I'm talking about...

Never play Extreme (was it "English Extreme"?) mode, because you will NEVER EVER finish it. The game is playable, but, at the end, where you have to press the button rapidly to "not choke", its IMPOSSIBLE.

Me and my 2 best friends couldn't pass that one. I pressed for like, 30 seconds, then one took over for another 20 seconds, and another took over from him for another 20 seconds, and STILL we couldn't beat it. (this wass consecutively, not alternating)

I got stuck on that for such a long time, in the end I had to get someone else to do it because my fingers were too abused by it even if I did the looking to the bottom left of the screen thing.

I beat Prophecies a while back and I meant to ask, is there only one Deldrimor Talisman available per character (I know you can buy them from others though).
I tried fighting Glint the other day but only got it down to half health before it picked everyone off one by one, we weren't prepared at all.

First thing that popped into my head is the first 15 minutes of Vagrant Story. It sets the mood for the game, introduces the major characters, includes some fun fights, and has (IMO) great music that progresses depending on how fast you move through the opening. For a game, it's really well put together.

You beat me to it, the opening to Vagrant Story was great.


Metroid Prime had a good introduction, exploring the abandoned space frigate orpheon in response to a distress signal before it crashes onto the nearby planet. Made a great introductory sequence and returning to the flooded wreckage later was a nice touch.

Also I forgot to mention I reached level 20 a while ago.
Tried to reach Droknar's forge from the beacon's perch but even with humans we tend to get killed pretty fast.

What's your IGN, I can add you and we can group and stuff when you hit level 20. :D

Currently "Captain Deadbeard" (the at least two name rule and people already having nicks I want dictated that).

I've got Guild Wars now and played it an hour or two. Currently a level 5 Necromancer/Elementalist.

1) Metroid Prime
2) Final Fantasy IX/Tactics
3) Resident Evil 2 (maybe 3 too)
4) Legend of Zelda OoT/Majora's Mask
5) Metal Gear Solid

It would be an utter waste if he was.
There are plenty of other characters in Metroid that could be resigned to bosses due to really not working as playable, I'm looking at you Kraid, Crocomire, Mother Brain etc etc.
The Mother Brain right would work quite well.
The inclusion of Charizard single handedly takes down complaints about Ridley not working as a playable character, and Ridley is a much more deserving character due to Metroid being under represented. (Zero Suit Samus is not good enough, especially since she's a transformation).

I'd recommend either of the Wipeout games, Tekken 5, FFT or Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops.

Well on the bright side at least I have a use for those 8000 stars I have since there is never anything worthwhile in the stars catalogue ever.

Bad news for Europeans, SSBB isn't coming out over there until summer.

SSBB delay
What! That's clearly just taking the piss now.
I am pirating that game now.

Plus the fact he has healed his memory and also has Sylar's stolen eidetic memory so there's no excuse for him forgetting, he can also use Sylar's understanding to know how to properly use his powers.

Oh and Maury has the exact same power as Mat, he even says so himself.

I also forgot to mention that Peter should have just phased through the vault, even though it's more dramatic to stand there trying to rip it off it's hinges with telekinesis. Peter 'vadering Hiro was pretty unnecessary too.
It seems that Mat's mind control does not work on someone with mind control and a strong will, so surely Maury could have escaped his commands.

A surprisingly good episode, it's a shame that .
-edit-
Also that's a good screenshot, it clearly is him.

Peter really should use his powers properly now and just read people's minds to know if they are telling the truth like Adam or Hiro for example. He's already healed his memory so he knows what he has and he has Sylar's inuitive understanding of how things work (even if he doesn't know it) which seems to be a passive ability so he can use that too.
Sylar can clearly use it in conjunction with acquired abilities because he always instantly knows how to properly use the power and is usually better at it than the person he took it from (ie Telekinesis and Brian Davis) and since he didn't know he had the power it's clearly useable without him trying.

Yeah same here. With the spots taken perhaps there will be more clinic scenes.

Wouldn't it have made more sense for Hiro to properly explain what Adam was up to and reason with Peter rather than say a few words and run at him with a sword screaming?
