Destructoid writes: "I saw nearly 30 games at the EA Showcase at EA Studios in Redwood Shores yesterday. After getting hands-on time with, or at least seeing, everything EA had to offer, I came to one simple conclusion: Henry Hatsworth in the Puzzling Adventure was the best game of the show to me.

Wait a second; I actually liked a casual game over something like Mercenaries 2 (which was at the EA Showcase and a preview will be coming) or any of the other hardcore games? Why yes, I actually think Henry Hatsworth is absolutely brilliant. Hit the jump to find out all about this fun little game."

One And Done: Will These Characters Return?

Chris Buffa (Modojo): Not every video game hero has a career like Mario and Sonic's. Of course, not every game deserves a sequel. Some were never meant to produce a series, while others bombed at retail, the respective publishers cutting their losses and moving on to something presumably more lucrative.

As a result, many of these characters fade into obscurity, killing the opportunity to see them again.
