But D.L. and Sylar are different beings. We aren't completely sure how Sylar or Peter's powers work. It could be Peter's body only got the chance to aborb one of his abilities.
If he took all of Sylar's abilities, he would have his memory power also. That would really come in handy right about now since he can't remember anything.
I'm falling under the group that believes until he actually demonstrates the power, he doesn't have it.

I think peter gets the powers even if they are not demonstated, but he needs an outside stimuli to activate themI.E not being able to get out of the ropes built up stress...whammo phasing, its obviously easier to see the power demonstrated first, but i think he gets them anyway
Trying to remember who he is would be a great stimulus for his memory power to kick in if he took that from Sylar, also.

The thing that convinces me he doesn't have all the powers is that Peter hasn't displayed super hearing. When Sylar first got that ability he couldn't control it at all and Sylar has always had far better control than Peter. Also, the person who had the power originally couldn't control it either.
That's true. Forgot about that.

True but we are dealing with story arch stuff,it wouldnt surprise me though, but he has gotten powers that were not demonstrated, time will tell( i hope)
Do you think the hatian gave him the memory loss?( peter seems to have the hatains necklace now)
Or did he loose his memory blowing himself up?

Don't know. It will be interesting to see, though. I'm sure they will reveal what happened in an upcoming episode.

Not necessarily true. When he was being interrogated by Matt, he had no idea Matt was reading his mind. Still, Peter absorbed his power and was able to use it also with absolutely no contol over it.

I'm not sure. Has he ever demonstrated being able to use two abilities simultaneously?
Originally posted by celestialdemonno it's a fact thatts how his powers are described, especially since without control over his powers he tended to use them immediatly when i nthe same place as the person using them
