Best Buy gives away amazing prizes every year in June to celebrate gaming during the week of E3. This years gaming event promises to be huge! As always, E3 will present the hottest new games from the biggest players in the industry. Also expect to see a lot from both Xbox and PlayStation since both have new consoles in 2017. To help you celebrate Best Buy will be giving away amazing Xbox One prizes, and PlayStation prizes, and many, many games.
Best Buy will be at E3 and you can follow our coverage on Twitter, and Instagram. We will also have extensive coverage on the blog: Best Buy Gaming Editor Paul Hunter will be at the show submitting stories, photos and videos from the conference floor.
This should be a very exciting E3. I know I can’t wait to hear more about Microsoft’s Project Scorpio and especially 4K gaming! Many people are dying to hear about updates to their favourite games. Enter this contest and you may win a new console to play that game on.
Here are some of the prizes you can win:
Xbox One S and PlayStation 4 Pro consoles: the newest consoles so you can play the newest games. Place it in your movie room to take advantage of the many other options these provide for all of your entertainment needs.
Each console will come with a great selection of the best games recently released: What good is a new console if you don’t have new games. Also everyone has their favourite games and game genres, so one or two games are simply inadequate! Each console will come with a minimum of seven games. You should have no problem getting into at least a couple of them and perhaps even discover a new favourite!

I’d have to go with Horizon Zero Dawn as the newest game I’d like to have.
I just started playing Forza Horizon 2 again, but would love to win Forza Horizon 3 just to play the new Hot Wheels expansion! Looks amazing!
first person shoots are my fav especially battelfield 1 http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/battlefield-1-ps4/10425244.aspx?
Horizon Zero Dawn has been so much fun to play, it’s a very beautiful game with an amazing story. http://m.bestbuy.ca/defaultpage.aspx?lang=en#/catalog/productdetails.aspx?ajax=true&lang=en-ca&pcname=&sku=10380427
Obviously has to be Persona 5, played it religiously since it came out, three runs and a platinum. http://m.bestbuy.ca/defaultpage.aspx?lang=en#/catalog/productdetails.aspx?ajax=true&lang=en-ca&pcname=&sku=10440898
Totally has to be Horizon Zero Dawn. Fabtabloious. http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/horizon-zero-dawn.aspx
http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/tekken-7-collector-s-edition-xbox-one/10580982.aspx? Tekken 7 Collector’s Edition is fun
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Is my favorite new game. I remember playing the original Zelda game and this brings me back.
http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/the-legend-of-zelda-breath-of-the-wild-switch/10440780.aspx
World of Warcraft. I like that style of MMO.
http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/blizzard-world-of-warcraft-legion-pc-english-72986/10400504.aspx?
Best game ever http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/minecraft-ps4/10324205.aspx
Another favorite of mine is The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Even though I don’t own it. Ive loved every Zelda game that’s ever come out and even though I don’t have a switch I still love the game world and characters that Nintendo has created.
http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/the-legend-of-zelda-breath-of-the-wild-switch/10440780.aspx
I’m really enjoying Mass Effect Andromeda because of the squad interactions. I hope there’s story DLC or a sequel with these characters.
http://m.bestbuy.ca/defaultpage.aspx?lang=en#/catalog/productdetails.aspx?ajax=true&sku=10534576&lang=en-CA
the division is a game that struggled early on but with all of the improvements that have been made anyone purchasing now will have no issues with re-playability or longevity of the game.
http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/tom-clancys-the-division-ps4/10255407.aspx?
My favourite will always be Starcraft 2, its emphasis on strategy and quick thinking as well as top level hand eye coordination will always keep it fresh for me
http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-CA/starcraft.aspx
I’d have to pick The Last Of Us as my favorite game right now. The graphics are stunning, the story is breathtaking, and the gameplay is very fun and unique. I never thought I’d be so connected and caring towards other characters in a matter of hours, feeling immersed from start to end. I even still go back to run through Naughty Dog’s masterful game every once in awhile. Also, I sunk a lot of hours into multiplayer because it’s intense and slow paced gameplay, something not often today in gaming. I really can’t wait until The Last Of Us: Part II, and I’m excited to see what Naughty Dog has to show us this E3. We’re about a week away which reminds me… I gotta go play The Last Of Us right now with a box of tissues beside me because that ending always tears me up.
http://m.bestbuy.ca/defaultpage.aspx?lang=en#/catalog/productdetails.aspx?ajax=true&sku=10288687&lang=en-CA
another game i like to play is uncharted series, played through uncharted 4 in a weekend, cant wait for the announced movie.

Today’s entry and I still say #Battlefield 1 is the best!!!
http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/battlefield-1-xbox-one/10425245.aspx
Mostly play sports game, and fifa 17 is the one i play the most, since i have friends who play it as well, so we have lots of online games.
http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/fifa-17-ps4/10440673.aspx?
My favourite game available on BestBuy.ca is Horizon Zero Dawn because it introduces some unique game mechanics that I’ve never seen before in a game : )
http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/horizon-zero-dawn-ps4/10380427.aspx
Is there any doubt right now what the best game is. Zelda BOTW should be a great foundation for future games to build off of
http://m.bestbuy.ca/defaultpage.aspx?lang=en#/catalog/productdetails.aspx?ajax=true&sku=10440780&lang=en-CA
Without a doubt, best new game recently released is Horizon Zero Dawn. It’s a beautiful game and the gameplay makes the entire game fun. It’s a must play. Can’t wait to see what is coming out soon at E3.
http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/horizon-zero-dawn-ps4/10380427.aspx
My favorite game is “The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild”. Why? Well, I cant even begin to describe the landscape of this game and how amazing it is. Its bosses, the environment and better yet, exploration opportunities. The best zelda game ever made.

Thanks!
The rules said I could post once per day, so here’s another one of my favourite games available on the site: Splatoon. I have really enjoyed my time with Nintendo’s shooter, and am looking forward to Splatoon 2 once I get a Switch!
http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/nintendo-splatoon-wii-u-wuppagme/10295483.aspx?
Persona 5: “Take Your Heart” Premium Edition. Huge puzzle-solving scope in the game.
http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/persona-5-take-your-heart-premium-edition-ps4-english/10440898.aspx?
Really enjoying some Mass Effect Andromeda – Great story, tons of worlds to explore, and multiplayer when friends are on.
http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/mass-effect-andromeda-deluxe-edition-xbox-one/10534577.aspx?
My favorite game right now is Persona 5. It really perfects the JRPG formula.
http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/persona-5-ps4/10620242.aspx?
Favourite game right now on Bestbuy has to be Zelda Breath of the Wild! Such a sprawling massive living world! What a great launch game for the new Switch!
http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/the-legend-of-zelda-breath-of-the-wild-switch/10440780.aspx
Pokemon is one of my favourite series and it certainly lives up to that title with sun and moon. Amazing games and cannot wait to play their sequels ultra sun and moon!
http://m.bestbuy.ca/defaultpage.aspx?lang=en#/catalog/productdetails.aspx?ajax=true&lang=en-ca&pcname=&sku=10424840
Currently playing this (FFXIV:ARR/HW). Hours and hours of content, engaging story, gorgeous graphics and an awesome soundtrack. I find the game very friendly to new MMO players as Square has added a few features to help those looking for some help without being chewed out. Looking forward to Stormblood, which is supposed to be an even bigger expansion than Heavensward!
http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/final-fantasy-xiv-online-complete-edition-pc/10721105.aspx?
Overwatch is my favourite right now.
http://m.bestbuy.ca/defaultpage.aspx?lang=en#/catalog/productdetails.aspx?ajax=true&sku=10400498&lang=en-CA
Normally I hate multiplayer, but with its cast of characters and fun, innovative gameplay, it’s one of the best gaming experiences out there right now.
My favourite game is Grand Theft Auto V http://m.bestbuy.ca/defaultpage.aspx?lang=en#/catalog/productdetails.aspx?ajax=true&sku=10341482&lang=en-CA
It helps me destress after a long day lol
By far, Destiny became my most favourite game… cannot wait for number 2, but the first one, as flawed as it was, it’s still the game I play the most and always a blast with friends
http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/destiny-the-collection-ps4-english/10480823.aspx?
This is another favourite: http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/fate-extella-the-umbral-star-ps4-english/10481491.aspx?
the characters are great 🙂
I think the Minecraft game is my favourite because it’s great for all ages! Family time that isn’t boring! http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/minecraft-ps4/10324205.aspx?
Honestly, my favourite game right now is Gears of War 4. Sure, it has its issues with connection and such, but I have a core group of players that I play with regularly almost every day, and some of my best gaming experiences have been with them playing Gears of War titles.

Have never owned a game console but I would love to play Grand Theft Auto V http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/grand-theft-auto-v-ps4/10341482.aspx? as over the years it seemed that it was pretty popular and sounds like fun
Huge fan of Assassin’s Creed. Really enjoyed the most recent game Syndicate: http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/assassin-s-creed-syndicate-xbox-one/10373908.aspx?
Not a console game, but my favourite on the site is World of Warcraft: Legion http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/blizzard-world-of-warcraft-legion-pc-english-72986/10400504.aspx?
I’ve been a WoW player since 2006 and have been really enjoying this expansion, I think there is a lot to do in it and I am not left feeling bored as with some of the last few expansions
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Is my favorite new game. The game is vast and expansive.
http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/the-legend-of-zelda-breath-of-the-wild-switch/10440780.aspx
Mass Effect: Andromeda Deluxe Edition. Great universe and character-driven narrative.
http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/mass-effect-andromeda-deluxe-edition-ps4/10534576.aspx?
Horizon Zero Dawn. Great game of combat, with emphasis on strategy.
http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/horizon-zero-dawn-ps4/10380427.aspx?
Pokemon sun! Played Pokemon moon and it completely reinvigorated my love of Pokemon.
http://m.bestbuy.ca/defaultpage.aspx?lang=en#/catalog/productdetails.aspx?ajax=true&sku=10424840&lang=en-CA
I’ve seen this a lot throughout the comments above but this game is truly awesome. It’s not my favourite game of all time but I’d highly recommend it because not only is gameplay fun but the story is super well done all the way til the end and beyond the credits;) so my choice is Horizon Zero Dawn http://m.bestbuy.ca/defaultpage.aspx?lang=en#/catalog/productdetails.aspx?ajax=true&sku=10380427&lang=en-CA
Favourite game though has to be Division although people say it’s dying to me it’s freaking awesome and all year 2 content is free which has had positive feedback from the group testing the top secret year 2 dlc.
http://m.bestbuy.ca/defaultpage.aspx?lang=en#/catalog/productdetails.aspx?ajax=true&sku=10255407&lang=en-CA
i would have to go with horizon zero dawn, great graphics & story that keeps you interested with a ton to do in game and a bunch of different ways to customize your character
http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-CA/horizon-zero-dawn.aspx?searchRedirect=horizon+zero+dawn
or ;
world of warcraft. its a game you can spend as much or as little time as you want and always feel like you’ve accomplished something. tons of exploration, questing/PVE and PVP to do and lore to learn about.
