I like the idea of Sylar and Peter being brothers, and even of Sylar redeeming himself, become a somewhat of the Heroes 'Vegeta.' Peter's own hunger complicates his character more, and sets up a good parallel between him and Sylar.
Those two teaming up and working together to take down more powerful villains is a great idea, I think. Otherwise, you might as well call the show "Peter Petrelli and Friends." I think the two of them working together could end up as a great idea - if it's handled correctly.

agreeded. their powers always seemed similar to me anyways. it certainly was a twist. enemies who also happen to be brothers, which was unbeknownst to them. major coolness 😮💨
Sorry but I just find that completely lame and just flat out lazy! The writers aren't even trying and just did that to do it. I also find this sociopath that has come to terms with killing people to gain their abilities as part of natural selection just simply realising he's really a monster and now wants to be a Hero complete bs. I mean it could be great has other stories have proved if handled right but this isn't even that. Its just another example of this season's latest, "doing things just to do them" trend.
Another thing that bothers me. Ok so lets just assume that it really was just the "hungry" or craving for power that made Sylar the way he was. Why is it forcing Peter to kill? Peter doesn't need to cut some one's head open to gain their ability. Hell how would it even benefit him? And Peter's not even that kind of Person like Gabriell was. He's shown all thur the series up till now how much he cares for people and empathises life. Its just crap and lame IMO.
