I love Zachary Quinto more than should be possible (let's not discuss how many times I watched Trek '09), but last night, despite the ZQMF love, I was completely bored by Sylar. Can they have a different Big Bad? Ever? (I know, probably about the time they actually kill a main character for keeps.)
No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

I'm wondering if he won't wind up on the "good" side of things.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Again? How much can they waffle with him?

Well, do you think he's going to team up with Samuel?
And given that nobody who had powers that were as big has them anymore - why would they do that?

Well, he's constantly shown an inability to give a damn about anyone but himself. He can take powers without killing, but he kills because it pleases him (unless it's a kid, because that would just be cold). So I'd be very unconvinced if he joined up with anyone or decided to stop killing without a damned good reason.
Nathan inside him might be that reason--depends on the writing. But on a meta level, the writers are just grabbing at straws to keep Quinto on the show.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I forget- can Peter take more than one power away if he's come into contact with Sylar or can he only use multiple powers if he's in the room with Sylar?

I don't know.

In theory he should be able to take the power to take powers. But I think they're steering away from powering anyone else up like that.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Watching Peter beat the shit out of Sylar is surprisingly gratifying.

The torture, however, less so...
