  1. Super excited for Xbox’s halo infinite announcement. Such a great franchise. One of gamings best in my opinion. I’m interested to see where they take halo next. Regardless of what direction they go in I’m sure it’ll be a great addition to the series

  2. I’m most excited about Sony’s PlayStation 5. Not only will it be the latest generation console, its ability to play PS4 games will have it replace a lot of people’s PS4. I’m also as excited for Nintendo and The Pokemon Company’s release of Pokemon Sword & Pokemon Shield for Nintendo Switch because it’s one of my favorite video game franchises ever.

  3. A new Switch model! I don’t get systems at launch and wait for them to iron out all the kinks. Excited to maybe pick one up and play Pokémon Sword & Shield.

  4. I am most excited about the Sony PS5 announcement. Looking forward to seeing the Technological and graphical advancements. The last Playstation I owned was a ps3, so winning one of these prizes would be a definite upgrade. Good luck to everyone who has entered.

  5. It’s a toss up between Nintendo and Sony. Nintendo has a ton of new games they are announcing that are going to amaze like Pokemon sword and shield. Can’t wait for a the new Pokémon game. Sony will be highlighting the PS5 specs. I’m very much looking forward to hearing what the capabilities are and what they want to push for the PS5.

  6. Looking forward to the PS5 and FF7 remake. I’ve had the PS1 since I was a little kid and played FF7. It was one of my favorite games. I’ve been a fan of PlayStation for my entire life and now that my favorite console and favorite game is coming out, I can’t wait!

  7. I’m very excited about Xbox announcing that they will have 14 first-party games to show off at E3 2019, since this is the most they’ve had in a long time, and because they currently lack some exclusive titles to compete with Playstation’s many great exclusives. Hyped for what Microsoft has in store!

  8. Hearing about call of duty modern Warfare has excited me the most. Call of duty YouTube channel announced the official name and release date. It excited me because call of duty has always been my favourite franchise, I grew up playing since call of duty 2 and 3. This franchise has been with me through so many years and finding out they are doing so many things to improve and revive the series just gets me so hyped

  9. Snap’s big plan to turn Snapchat into a gaming platform. I want many different kind of gaming platform

  10. I’m personally very excited about the upcoming Pokemon Sword & Shield games for the Nintendo Switch! I’ve been a huge fan of Pokemon (as I’m sure many other are) since I was a little kid, and it’s always really exciting whenever a new Pokemon game is announced – especially in this case as it is the first Pokemon game coming to the Switch.

  11. I am really excited for the next generation of console coming out. It’s gonna b lightning fast . Also I wish they can release tekken tag tournament with the next console.

  12. Ps5 for sure, specs sounds super impressive so far can’t wait to see what kind of groundbreaking advancements they make in the console realm. Gonna be some amazing games for the console.

  13. very excited about the announcement of the Sony PlayStation 5 (PSV / PS5). It’s very important to be because I have been a long-time Sony PlayStation fan and my last console was a PlayStation 2 (PS2)! I want to see what Sony has to offer in order to start gaming again!

  14. While wiating for the PS5… The last of us 2, the first one was probably the best game i’ve played in the last years. I can’t wait to see the new one!

  15. I am excited for the PlayStation announcement for the PS5, last of us 2, cyberpunk 2077, the avengers game, star wars and many more because ive had every PlayStation console and and vivid fan of this franchise!

  16. I can’t wait to see more Cyberpunk 2077! It was amazing to be at E3 last year and seeing so many games announced and hopefully this year will show off many other great titles. 🙂

  17. Sony’s Playstation 5 has me most excited with the full AMD chipset, along with a slew of incredible exclusives on the way, how could one NOT be excited?!?

  18. I’m interested to see what Microsoft announces. They’ve been lagging behind PlayStation and I’m interested in their big push to win people back next generation.

  19. Looking forward to so many things..Final Fantasy 7 remake, Call of Duty soft reboot and most of all the Playstation 5!!!!!!!

  20. The Oculus Quest is the big thing for me as it will allow people to play VR games more like a console, no need for a powerful computer. This should make it more popular and help get games and technology progressing faster.

  21. I believe it’s estimated for 2020? But, the Pokemon Sleep announcement during the Pokemon Conference, Select Button who make Magikarp Jump is behind it so I’m pretty excited with how they’ll handle it. I’m sure we could ALL use a sleep guiding app, but I’m excited that Pokemon might give us a new intensive to actually get healthy levels of sleep. Trust me I could use it.

  22. Most hyped about the ps5 that’s gonna change everything we know at the moment of consoles and bring a whole new plethora of next generation games and apps to us

  23. I am looking forward to everything, but especially to the Nintendo announcement and to the Super Mario Party (Switch) I personally would be happy with whatever I got.

  24. I am most excited by the Final Fantasy VII remake trailer that I had seen PlayStation post on social media. While I have always been a Square Enix fan, Final Fantasy VII was my first RPG and sparked a life-long love of games, even putting me on the path to study video game design and development in post secondary. It’s not often we can relive the experience of playing a game for the first time twice but Square Enix is giving me the opportunity.

  25. I’m really looking forward to more info from Gearbox regarding Borderlands 3 (and also the apparent rumors around more Borderlands 2 DLC to tie things in for the new game).

    This is important to me as my friends and I have played this series together since the first game and have spent countless hours laughing and have a good time together. If nothing else this series has given me many great memories with good friends.

  26. Nintendo announcement for Mario Maker 2 no doubt. Haven’t played the first and really want to play this game.

  27. Super excited about Sony’s announcement of the PlayStation 5. Love how every console somehow improves on the last!

    Thx!

  28. I am most excited for nintendo announcements, I hope that they will release more information about the pokemon games which I have loved since I was a child.
    I’m exited to hear what other games they plan on releasing for the switch console.

  29. My two kids are HUGE Nintendo Switch fans (taking after their dad whose video game pedigree includes Atari 2600, Genesis and Commodore 64). Can’t wait for E3 and details on Metroid Prime 4, Luigi’s Mansion 3 and Animal Crossing. E3 is always exciting, sort of like an early Christmas 😉

  30. I am excited for the Final Fantasy 7 remake from Square Enix for PS4. i always wanted to revisit this game in a less buggy form.

  31. PlayStation 5… can’t wait, and to see all the new games associated with it!!!

  32. As with every E3 I am most excited about the things that I haven’t even heard of yet. I am waiting for the Sony/Nintendo/XBOX announcements to have that moment where the lights go dark and you just see a logo, a characters silhouette, or an iconic sound from a game and the whole crowd explodes in a cloud of hype that can be seen from space! That or those moments where a company announces a new IP and all you can think of is “Wait a minute, what was THAT game?” then you spend the next hour going over the trailer a hundred times. But if I have to be specific and be clear I am most excited for more details about Square Enix’s Marvel’s Avengers game. With how amazing the new Marvel’s Spiderman game was and how much I have always loved Square Enix games I am pretty pumped for this one.

  33. I am most excited about Sony’s PlayStation 5 announcement! The growth in technology and the advancements that have been occurring in our society recently are amazing and I can’t wait to see what the future has in store for the gaming industry!

  34. I’m most excited about the coverage to come for the Final Fantasy VII Remake for PS4 by Square Enix! I’ve been a huge fan of the Final Fantasy franchise and Final Fantasy VII was my first Final Fantasy game I ever played, so I’m super excited to see a full remake of it finally becoming a real thing! No more paintbrush hands!

  35. I am most excited for the Playstation 5 announcement announced by playstation because it is finally going forward with new graphics and I cant wait for a new play station.

  36. Looking forward for the next gen PlayStation console. Really interested to know what new features it will come with

  37. New XBOX babyyyyy!!! Sony about to be dethroned and microsoft will reign supreme yet again

  38. Of course is the Playstation 5 announcement. Can’t wait to see all the feature they promise.

  39. I am beyond excited for the upcoming kingdom hearts 3 made my Square Enid. I’d be so happy to win any of the prizes, but I’d love a Nintendo switch! This is a franchise that helped shape and arc my childhood. The incredible fond memories I have of the gameplay and the characters I simply can’t put into words.

  40. I’m really looking forward to some modern warfare gameplay, hopefully call of duty will pick up it’s roots. Been wanting an Xbox one x for a while because they’re the most powerful console

  41. Well until PS5 get released can not wait till the Last of Us 2 is released as the first was immersive and provided many enjoyable hours of gaming
