"Awesome"
I own Lost (season 3) on bluray and also did buy Heroes on HD DVD, as you know both formats are the new gen one, but let me tell you a secret, the quality of image in heroes goes beyond lost, it's great, i don't know why but to my eye it was a great experience. The extra material is good and the sound like me a lot of too. You are going to be very happy since the first chapter if you buy it, no doubt. It is paid by itself in the very moment you see Claire in HD ;)

"good video quality, but not great"
I'd like to say first that this is without a doubt the best presentation of Heroes season 1 available. The video quality of these discs is far superior to the NBC broadcasts, but still leaves something to be desired.

The disc come packaged in a handsome box set, smartly packaged on their boards instead of being stacked. The visual quality of each episode seems to vary greatly. As is often the case with material shot on high def, lighter scenes tend to look great, while very dark scenes are plagued by grain and other video noise. Make no mistake, these episodes all look great. Colors are vivid, contrast is sharp, and there are few instances of compression artifacting (commonplace when dealing with highly compressed digital video).

This set also boasts some nice special features. The commentary tracks often include several cast members along with the standard writer director combination. This seems to keep the commentaries from ever growing stale or too technical, as the cast brings more a lay persons reading to the tracks. The other bonuses, e.g. which superhero are you, are okay, but nothing special. When HDDVD was still a valid format, one of the few advantages it had over BLU-ray was it's support of web-enabled content as well as support for multiple video streams. Take a look at the fast and the furious HDDVD special features; you can customize a car with your remote, apply the changes to a specific scene, and watch your car cruise around seamlessly integrated into the movie. That was amazing. On these discs the potential of the HDDVD's bonus content capabilities are largely overlooked. Specifically the online content is really nothing more than a slow webpage.

For me these discs weren't great, merely "good enough". These are clearly a step up in terms of visual quality from the HD broadcasts, but they don't really wow me the way other HDDVD releases did. To reiterate good, but not great. Worth buying if you are a heroes fan and don't want to wait for the blu-ray releases.

"very nice"
This is a compelling first season of a so far great TV series. The HD image quality is a mixed bag. The problem is not the film grain which is normal and supposed to be there for a TV series shot on film and presented in HD, but the strong edge enhancement that was often applied to the transfer. It gives the film based images a harsh and unnecessary video look with haloes. Bad call. Lay it off for the next seasons, please. No digital sharpening!

"Wonderful box."
A wonderful box with really good picture and loads of extras, especially u-control is awesome. A series with an engaging story and a really good gallery of characters. This is the only really good way to follow this series.

"Heroes Season 1"
I bought the HD-DVD series for my wife and I ended up watching it more than her. I had some trouble with Disk 4, but once I upgraded the software on my HD-DVD player, everything worked and looked great.

"Lousy disks", I tried two of these and both had defective disks 4 and 6. The other 5 disks worked fine on my XBOX360 HD-DVD drive. I had to return both and buy the plain DVDs.

"Heroes Season 1", ThisHeroes - Season 1 [HD DVD] 7 disc set. The product was good as new even though it was purchased as used set. HD quality was excellent. Having the standard DVD set also, this is an excellent upgrade worth the watching.

"Heroes vs X-Men", I am a huge X-men fan. So how does this stack up? I think it brings a sense of realism to the comic book idealism.

Nathan is Heroes version of Professor Xavier, but he is young and just learning his limits, or lack thereof. Claire, the Cheerleader, is Wolverine without the claws. I could go on, but the point is this, if you like X-men you'll love this. It is definitely for an older crowd, though; there is lots of violence that doesn't even stop with death.

I hold back the fifth star only because I believe the level of gore was unnecessarily high.


"Awsome.....", Well...it's a pitty the HD-DVD format is dead but I strongly recommend this HD box. The episodes are awsome for anybody who's into sci-fi.


I am looking forward to season 2 in blueray.

"HEROES Seasons One and Two Coming to BLU RAY in August! Buy the", Just a reminder to those who are not aware: HEROES is coming to Blu Ray in August, so it doesn't make any sense to buy HD-DVD anymore, now that HD-DVD is officially DEAD. I can't wait to buy all the Seasons on Blu Ray!

"Awesome series in an awesome highdef", The series itself is fascinating, but under highdefinition it gains even more by the very high quality of the transfer. The faces of the actors are presented in such detail that You expect them to breathe into Your face. Greater scenes or crowds gain more perspective, the colors are outstanding, really exceptional for a TV series.

Two thumbs up!

"High cost, low value", As others have commented, this comes with no alternate audio tracks (language or format) and only one alternate language subtitle (français canadien). The picture looks like some of the worst film to DVD transfers I've ever seen. It's unbelievably grainy, and the MPEG-2 to VC-1 conversion just emphasizes the problem, like laminating something with dust trapped in it. I have to turn the brightness on my TV way down just to hide the noise, which sucks all the life out of the outdoor scenes, so I have a choice between looking drab and dull and just looking horrible. With such meager, low-quality data on the discs, I have a hard time imagining how they filled so many.

I have a suspicion that the people who actually think this and other HD DVD productions look good are using DLP or Plasma TVs. DLP TVs are darker and Plasma are less clear. If you have an LCD TV, avoid this like the plague. It looks terrible.

Also, the first time I put it in, my HD DVD player hard froze 14 seconds into the Universal logo, which is a big setback because the thing takes almost a minute just to turn on. (Toshiba HD-A20 -- also avoid like the plague.) I have no idea how much the disc is responsible for freezes, but it's another reason why I'm completely fed up with HD DVD and wish Universal would pull the plug on this format war. If this set were available on Blu-Ray, it could come in fewer discs with more audio data and higher bitrate video in its original MPEG-2 broadcast format. Cheap hardware and interactive features aren't worth anything when the main feature looks this bad.

I've already stopped buying Universal movies, including regular DVD, because of the exclusivity to the inferior format. I thought HD DVD was at least good enough to handle a TV show, but now I can't trust that, either.

"Must Have HD-DVD set", This is one of the best mastered HD-DVD products that I own. The interactive features pull you into the inner circle as they highlight the subtleties of the story telling. In addition to being a technological wonder that fully exploits the capabilities of the HD-DVD format, the season 1 shows are compelling.

"Hate it but I'm watching it!", Everybody absolutely loves Heroes. Both the DVD and HD-DVD versions have near perfect reviews.

I feel very differently. I think the plot is sophisticated. It pulls you in. Once you see the first episode you want to see what happens next. It's a continuing series like a soap-opera. I bought Season one on hd-dvd. The video quality is generally cleaner than dvd but no where near the quality of planet earth. I have dvds that are cleaner than heroes.

What I've seen so far of Heroes is a far cry from X-Men and other super heroes. Heroes is in some ways based on x-men. People discovering they are gifted and some do good while others do bad and yet there is one person bent on killing everyone who is gifted. X-Men does this well. With heroes it's so different It's so violent, so filled with blood and gore. Heroes almost celebrates detestable things. It feels so satanic and evil. Appearing to give you thrills and suspense and super heroes while really pushing death. SO MUCH DEATH. So much death and we get to see all the gore associated with most of the deaths. I believe there is no positive substance to be found here like saving lives and humanity in a genuine way. I believe the writer or writers of heroes has a fixation with death and murder and has written an elaborate script to pull people in thinking the are seeing gifted people do great things while really feeding them dead people. The central theme is death. Will watch out the season one I bought and not buy any more.

"Great HD-DVD collection", This show looks great in High Definition. The extras are all cool and fun. You can see the pores in Peters face lol.
