I have been waiting for the release of the Last of Us Part II by NaughtyDogs. It’s probably the best story besides uncharted.
Nintendo’s Pokemon Sword and Shield. Been a huge fan of Pokemon all my life and I’m looking forward to seeing what gen 8 is going to look like.
Also Square Enix’s new Marvel game and Final Fantasy VII Remake. Wondering what their take on the Marvel universe is and how the modern day combat in newer Final Fantasy’s will tie into FFVII classic turn based.
Props on the nod to PC gaming! Can’t wait!!
Death Stranding trailer and release date announcement. I love Hideo Kojima’s games and have played the Metal Gear series since I was a kid. I love trying to unravel his stories and experience the twisted worlds he creates. So excited to see what he can do with his hands no longer tied by Konami.
I’m interested in the next generation console information
I am most excited for the Nintendo switch, because I love Nintendo, it bring back many memories, and excited for what e3 has for us!!!!
I am genuinely looking forward to news on Cyberpunk 2077 and, with any luck, news in general about potential cross platform play between Playstation and PC. I’ve got friends who have a Playstation system but no real PC and I want to play games with them! I’m also hoping for some news on Animal Crossing for Nintendo Switch. It’s a great series, Nintendo! Do it justice!
Nintendo’s mario maker 2 and pokemon sword and shield for sure. Didnt get to play the original Mario maker becuase I never owned a Wii U and am always excited for a new core pokemon title.
I am waiting to see a release date for the Final fantasy 7 remake and that’s been since before PS3 even came out. Nonetheless I can’t wait to get my hands on it! Hearing/seeing what all parties have to offer this E3 is also something I cannot wait for.
I’m so excited for any news about The Las of Us II by Naughty Dog!! I fell in love with the first one and I still believe it’s one of the best games of this generation. I can’t wait for the second one especially since I don’t have as much time to game as before: I am much more selective with which game I play and TLOU II will definitely be worth my time and hard earned money.
I’m most excited for Nintendo’s Legend of Zelda: Links awakening on the Switch as I have very found memories of playing the original back in the day.
Absolutely the new Legend of Zelda game
I’m excited for more Borderlands 3, because Gearbox gets the shooting and looting right. Can’t wait to play though co-op with a friend.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare by Activison. Rather excited for this since CoD 4 was one of the first games I played, thus I have a certain fondness for the series. Heres to me hoping that it will be a good return to form.
Everything Nintendo! Mario and Zelda ☺️
I’m very excited about Project XCloud from Microsoft and their XBox team. Let’s see what the future of gaming might look like. Streaming is scary but probably inevitable let’s see if MS and their azure servers can actually pull this off.
I am most excited about a new console announcement, specifically the Xbox Anaconda and Lockhart announcement by Microsoft. I’ve always been an Xbox guy ever since the very first Xbox Original. When gaming I love the feeling of nostalgia and also making new memories with my best friend and my brother, we’ve been gaming together on Xbox for almost 13 years.
Zelda is what I’m looking forward to!!! any new games that come out, I’m on it!! lol
With no doubt Death Stranding! An exclusive for PS4… In a world where some people agree on creating bridges between nations, between people who shares the same earth, who love, whose pain are felt the same. We don’t need bridges to separate Us we need Connection to bring us together! That’s what mean being a gamer being able to make friend from all the world and connect and share the same love! That’s the message being shared about that game and I can’t wait!
I’m most Excited for COD Modern Warfare.
Activision has just announced this game. Playing the original Modern Warfare is where I met my best friend. Online playing COD. Next year he’s getting married and I’m his best Man. Ten years in the making! This title brought us together, were excited to play the reboot together.
Marvel’s Avengers by Square Enix. Very excited to see what a team like crystal dynamics and eidos montreal can bring to the table with an IP like the Avengers
My favourite had to have been kind one hearts 3. For there there is nostalgia. It’s a game I played as a kid that I just absolutely loved. Also looking forward to animal crossing and obviously the new Zelda that came out for Nintendo switch.
switch Mario cuz I love Nintendo products, actually all but Nintendo brings nostalgia from childhood!!! love it!
I cant wait to see the nee development for nintendo switch mario bros game and try it i saw the annoncement on my facebook feed by best buy and i couldnt participe my bf lost everything he had on a fire last year and i know he would be hapoy to have this
I’m excited to see the new ghost recon and hopefully some more info on the ps5!!!!
Definitely Final Fantasy VII! I loved the character design back in the days. Can’t wait to see them with updated graphics!
I am most excited about the new Call of Duty Modern Warfare by infinity ward because I remember when I used to play the modern warfare series back in school with my friends and it’s very nostalgic.
Final fantasy 7 remake announcement. The original was probably my all time favorite game.
Looking for a Metroid update from Nintendo, their exclusives are always the best!
The new Zelda! Can’t wait!
I’m excited for the new Animal crossing game from Nintendo. It was announced last September and all they said was that it will be coming out in 2019. I fully expect there will be more information about Animal Crossing during the Nintendo Direct at E3. I always lose myself in Animal Crossing, it is such a relaxing game that I spend hours playing.
FF7 remake is of high interest from Square Enix. Have played through the original multiple times. Look forward to going through that story with modern tech.
This years E3 has a lot of announcements I’m excited to hear about- but if I had to choose my most anticipated announcement it would have to be the Final Fantasy VII remake by Square Enix. Ever since I picked up FF 4 when I was kid I was hooked on fantasy adventure games and the Final Fantasy series never fails to blow me away. They just get you hooked and invested in the world and characters and the politics. They make me think and strategize- and also the hours I spend hunting for Easter eggs and other hidden gems are never dull. To me it’s what true gaming is all about. Thanks Square Enix for bringing in such unreal talent for game and storyline development- and let’s not forget the soundtracks!
Can’t wait for Modern Warfare at E3.
Looking forward to hearing about new games on the Nintendo Switch, specifically adventure RPGs. If I can bring it with me and it involve loots: let’s go!
Anything by Nintendo and Microsoft really. Oh and a detailed explanation of death stranding ,
All great games and consoles Call of duty: Modern Warfare for ps4 or xbox1
I want to see Bleeding Edge by Ninja Theory!
Nintendo has outlined its plans for the E3 2019 video game trade show, which takes place June 11-13 at the Los Angeles Convention Center. The weekend before the show includes two competitions featuring top players of the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate and Splatoon 2 games from around the world. “We’re starting with some heated competitions and delivering new content the whole week,” said Nintendo of America President Doug Bowser.
I’m most excited for the Nintendo Switch, “The Legend of Zelda, Link’s Awakening” announced by Nintendo. I have been a Zelda fanatic since I have been young and I can’t wait to try this game out. I really like the look of the artwork for this game and I also think that the Nintendo switch is very cool as you can play both on your tv and in transit. What a great product!
Stoked for Ubisoft’s announcements and what they’ll be coming out with. Love their games and hoping for something Splinter Cell related.
For me it would have to be FF7 game from square enix. The nastalgia of the game from playing the the 1999 version many time is going to be amazing
I am looking forward to seeing Xbox announce the new hardware (Console/System! Seeing as how Sony is sitting this year out, it’ll leave space for Microsoft to take the spotlight
Can’t wait for next gen console information
Activision, COD modern warfare, as it appears they are finally getting back to their roots
I’m excited to fear about Final Fantasy 7 and to learn about new gen consoles. I really need a new PS4 – my destiny 1 console sounds like a jet plane these days
I am super excited for anything Nintendo, always, but I am most excited for more information about the new Animal Crossing for Nintendo Switch this year. I have been playing Animal Crossing since the first one came out and it has always has a special place in my heart. My sister and I played the original together on the Gamecube as kids, and my boyfriend and I still play the most recently installment on our 3DSs to this day! I couldn’t be more excited!
Definitely the new call of duty game. It looks they’re going back to the old school kind of COD which makes me happy
Definitely Destiny I’ve played this game since the beginning and they’ve definitely had the ups and downs but they’ve really pulled they’re act together and started releasing good content
Everything about E3 and all gaming announcements have me really excited and I would love to win any and all of the prizes especially kingdom of hearts.
