He lost some of his powers when he was injured by Hiro at the end of Season 1.

Heroes doesn't offer the level of excitement it used to in the first season, when they had a mission to accomplish ("Save the cheerleader, save the world"). In the second season, it just seemed to be going ahead without a clear destination in mind (things came together more or less in the finale). Its more or less this time as well - I mean are they even trying to achieve anything? The escaped villains - they don't look like they are trying to destroy the world! The heroes - what are they trying to prevent? To prevent the reconstruction of Zimmerman's powers? To prevent Mohinder from hitting upon an alternate formula? To prevent the future "Promise City" from coming up? (didnt future Peter's actions already change that future?) To Save future Gabriel from having Noah? (and thus prevent him from nuking up?) To prevent the Earth from blowing up? None of the heroes seem to be making any whole-hearted effort to do that!

Well... they do have a clear destination. We see the world cracking apart in paintings (and a scene in the future? I can't quite remember that). This time the way they manage to save the world is more ambiguous, which I personally find more compelling..

Also, if they had a mantra every season, it'd get samey really fast...

I guess the character that the fans don't love is Maya and the one that the fans love is Adam.. right? that's what was reported anyway. If they killed peter I wouldn't mind though

Maya is completely worthless now. She would have had a big role if it wasn't for the writer's strike, but now, her character adds nothing to the show. She will not be missed. It would be good to kill off Adam as it will prove that Peter and Sylar can get killed and are not completely invincible.

Shotgun to the back of the head is my vote. That way you don't have to worry about people thinking that he could come back if the head was put back on the body.

I wonder how much of him they could lob off him, and he still be able to regrow.

To me it makes sense that any limb would grow back, provided the part of their body that allows them to regenerate isn't destroyed. Think Cell from Dragonball Z. In case you haven't watched DBZ before, Cell could regenerate and he could continue to do so until his core, or something like that, was destroyed (the source of his regenerative ability). Destroy the source, destroy the person. That's why I think nothing should kill people who can heal unless you destroy the source, screw the bullet in the brain crap.

What they're going with, though, is that decapitation or a bullet to the head will finally kill them, which to me doesn't really make a lot of sense. How much of your body can you lose before your healing ability cannot regenerate? An arm? A leg? Two legs? Half your torso?

Exactly. He needs a bigger role in the story.

Oh he will get there. He is in Africa to meet his totem which will allow him to be stronger and then play a big role in the story. Probably father vs son again. or maybe father and son vs someone else.

Per this season's theme of Heroes v Villains, i think we're on the verge of an x-men style war/plot where Magneto is Arthur Petrelli and Xavier is Mrs Petrelli. It also seems to be the Company v Pinehurst.

The formula would also seem to be key to Pinehurst's plan to build an army of people with powers.

The Company seems to be there to prevent that from happening. I haven't read any of the novels but it seems that historically, there was the Company's founders who must have had a falling out. Some wanted to play God whilst others thought it wasn't there place.

Remember Hiro's father in the video - he mentions a 'chosen one amongst you who carries the purity of blood, the "light" to safeguard against the darkness'. All signs would point to this person being Clare, given Sylar saying that she was 'special' when he examined her.

Greg Grunberg who plays Matt Parkman was on the red carpet for SpikeTV's Scream Awards and IESB was able to chat with him about Volume 4.

Grunberg confirmed that production on Volume 4: Fugitives is beginning and provided us with our first confirmation that the Heroes will be on the run during the second half of Season 3. Grunberg stated that there is "one looming power" that has all of the Heroes on the run together.

Of course many of you know The Hunter was recently cast and I am sure he will be the one chasing the Heroes.

      While I agree with all that, it just proves there's an a** built for every seat.
    • Epic Games says Unreal Engine 6 will help developers "build content faster" using AI models

      Lol are you mad because I'm not using AI? I'd rather pay people than lose a bunch of potential customers and get humilated because I used AI. A lot of people won't purchase a game if it used AI during development.
    • LibreWolf 152.0-1

      LibreWolf 152.0-1 by Razvan Serea LibreWolf is an independent “fork” of Firefox, with the primary goals of privacy security and user freedom. It is the community run successor to LibreFox. LibreWolf is designed to increase protection against tracking and fingerprinting techniques, while also including a few security improvements. This is achieved through our privacy and security oriented settings and patches. LibreWolf also aims to remove all the telemetry, data collection and annoyances, as well as disabling anti-freedom features like DRM. LibreWolf features: Latest Firefox — LibreWolf is compiled directly from the latest build of Firefox Stable. You will have the the latest features, and security updates. Independent Build — LibreWolf uses a build independent of Firefox and has its own settings, profile folder and installation path. As a result, it can be installed alongside Firefox or any other browser. No phoning home — Embedded server links and other calling home functions are removed. In other words, minimal background connections by default. User settings updates Extensions firewall: limit internet access for extensions. Multi-platform (Windows/Linux/Mac/and soon Android) Community-Driven Dark theme (classic and advanced) LibreWolf privacy features: Delete cookies and website data on close. Include only privacy respecting search engines like DuckDuckGo and Searx. Include uBlockOrigin with custom default filter lists, and Tracking Protection in strict mode, to block trackers and ads. Strip tracking elements from URLs, both natively and through uBO. Enable dFPI, also known as Total Cookie Protection. Enable RFP which is part of the Tor Uplift project. RFP is considered the best in class anti-fingerprinting solution, and its goal is to make users look the same and cover as many metrics as possible, in an effort to block fingerprinting techniques. Always display user language as en-US to websites, in order to protect the language used in the browser and in the OS. Disable WebGL, as it is a strong fingerprinting vector. Prevent access to the location services of the OS, and use Mozilla's location API instead of Google's API. Limit ICE candidates generation to a single interface when sharing video or audio during a videoconference. Force DNS and WebRTC inside the proxy, when one is being used. Trim cross-origin referrers, so that they don't include the full URI. Disable link prefetching and speculative connections. Disable disk cache and clear temporary files on close. Disable form autofill. Disable search and form history...and more. LibreWolf 152.0-1 changelog: Upstream release, see the Firefox 152.0 Release Notes Notable changes: The AppImages are now built on Codeberg along with the other releases We have decided to wait a bit longer to enable the settings redesign, due to use being aware of multiple upstream issues Download: LibreWolf 64-bit | Portable 64-bit | ~100.0 MB (Open Source) Download: ARM64 | Portable ARM64 Links: LibreWolf Home Page | Addons | Screenshot | Reddit Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware

      "I know for a fact I'll never own one of these." This is why choice is better than government regulation. Globaly Android has something like 72% of the smartphone market. Granted the vast majority of that is low end phones. Apple can and should charge whatever they want. The market will decide if it is too much.
