I am excited for a brand new console.
i look forward to playing pokemon on the Nintendo switch.
I’m super excited for (hopefully) the announcement of the new Animal Crossing game for switch by Nintendo at E3. I’ve been playing Animal Crossing since the Gamecube days and it’s one of my favorite titles. The experience is unique and it’s hard to find anything similar. Nothing compares!
CodMW
Cyberpunk 2077 from CD PROJEKT RED for PC will be awesome. Such a high level of detail.
Looking forward on the upcoming consoles especially the PS5 with the new AMD zen2 and NAvi.
I’m looking forward to suprise announcements, There has been a huge rumour brewing that capcom is going to reveal Resident Evil 8 (hopefully for current gen and next gen) at E3. They have been on a huge roll with their recent games and with the love i have for the series, I can’t wait to see where it will go and how they will continue the story in 8.
What he me most pumped is the potential for announcements around new gaming console hardware as well as game streaming technology.
I am looking forward to Call if duty modern ware fare. The reason I am looking forward to this game in particular is that it’s the first call of duty in over a decade that will be modern based. Also the game itself is running off a different in game engine for the first time which will bring a new gaming experience to the average gamer which is very exciting, and for the first time ever DLC IS FREE! Thank god. This is the main thing I am looking forward for when it comes to E3 this year. #Codfanforlife
I’m hoping that Sony (Square Enix) makes an announcement regarding the long awaited remake of Final Fantasy 7 for Playstation 4!
…Or maybe Playstation 5?!
It means a lot to me since I grew up playing Final Fantasy games. I think this remake will be a great introduction for Final Fantasy games to this generation.
Looking forward to rocksteady games making a possible announcement, rumour is that it may be another Batman game or DC. Their Arkham series was amazing and they’ve been silent for many years as to what game they’ve been developing and what ever they may be working on has me very keen.
I’m excited about the new games that will be coming out on the Nintendo Switch. I’d like to pay the new Pokemon game.
I am most excited for a couple video games, Luigi’s mansion 3 and links awakening dropping later this year for the Nintendo switch ! Zelda has always been in my heart since I was born in 94 to now in 2019 ! Louisiana mansion was one of my favourites from the Nintendo GameCube years back, would be amazing to get to play these games again!
I’m extremely excited to see some new gameplay of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order by Respawn and published by EA. This game is very important to me because I am a huge Star Wars fan and we don’t get Star Wars games often. The last 2 Star Wars game have been a bit dissapointing and we haven’t gotten a single player Star Wars game in a long time. It’s looking like it will actually be really fun and I’m very excited to see more gameplay at E3 and even more excited to play it later this year!
Really excited for Fire Emblem: Three Houses by Intelligent Systems and Koei Tecmo Games for the Nintendo Switch. I’ve been playing Fire Emblem games since forever and have always enjoyed them so this next instalment is something I’m really looking forward to.
I’ve just recently started using a PS VR, so I’m really looking forward to seeing what Sony has for us with the PS 5 and PS VR 2 setup.
Cyberpunk 2077 – The cyberpunk world is vast and amazing.
I cannot wait to get my hands on this game.
The Last Of Us 2 game from Naughty Dogs has me excited for both its great story and gameplay….its been too long since the first game
I’m really excited to see some new gameplay of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order by Respawn and published by EA.

Excited to see Elder Scrolls Online: Elsweyr by Bethesda. I’ve been a hug fan of Elder Scrolls since Skyrim and can’t wait to explore Elsweyr and the new Necromancer class!
I’m excited for Crash Team Racing – from activision. It was the first game I ever had for the PlayStation and the nostalgia would be amazing!
The most exciting game announcement for me was Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Breakpoint by Ubisoft (Ubisoft Paris). I really loved the first Ghost Recon and almost all Tom Clancy games. I play all of them with my cousins and it has really brought us together playing the games, we have made very fond memories playing them. Can’t wait for the next!
As a huge Halo fan, I can’t wait for Microsoft and 343 to give more information on halo infinite.
The Last Of Us 2 game from Naughty Dogs has me excited for both the great story and gameplay…..its been too long since the first game
I’m excited for Doom Eternal, which will be the “fifth game in the Doom series, and is promising to double the number of demon types that the player can slaughter.” The announcement was made by BETHESDA SOFTWORKS.
Definitely Cyberpunk
The game I’m most excited for is not gonna be shown at E3 (I’m pretty sure) and has already been announced. It’s a remastered version of my favourite game of all time: Warcraft 3. Now I’m not sure if Warcraft 3 Reforged is getting realesed in 2019 or 2020 but I would really like to have a good pc to play this game that I’ve been waiting for years. Strategy games have always been one of my favourite type of games. What I hope it means from Blizzard Entertainment is that they are working on Warcraft IV which would blow my mind. I can’t wait to play Warcraft 3 reforged and to bring back childhood memories and nostalgia. I could go on and on about all the games I’m excited for. I think the future of gaming looks brighter than ever.
I’m most excited about the Sony Playstation 5 console! Backwards compatibility and the ability to play online with PS4 users are going to make it a great transition. PS5 will open a whole new avenue of gaming
I’m looking forward to the new Call of Duty: Modern Warfare from Activision as the graphical improvements look absolutely stunning.
I’m excited for the full release of satisfactory, and maybe an actually fun shooter game will be announced
The Elder Scrolls Online: Elsweyr by Bethesda. I’ve been a huge fan of elder scrolls since the release of Skyrim and very much looking forward to exploring Elsweyr. Also excited about the new Necromancer class!
I’m looking for CD Projekt Red and Cyberpunk 2077!
I am really looking forward to the realease and presentation of ‘jedi:The Fallen Order’. It has been way too long since a great Star wars campaign based game. Hopefully this one is worth the wait!
I’m most excited for Borderlands 3 announced by Gearbox because I’ve always loved the comedy while playing a shooter game. Borderlands has always made me genuinely laugh.
I love seeing new changes to my favourite games. I can’t wait for the new characters, maps, comedy, and game play. I just can’t wait play with my friends for continuous hours.
The announcement I am most excited for is Nintendo’s Luigi’s Mansion 3 because this game was such a hidden gem when it first came out for the Nintendo Gamecube. Mario always gets the spotlight, but Luigi definitely can hold his own for hours and hours of fun gameplay. This game is very nostalgic for me because I can always remember the Christmas break my brother and I spent glued to Luigi’s Mansion playing WAY past our bedtime.
I cannot wait to “hopefully” see more coverage of the FF7 remake from square enix. Been faithfully playing square titles since before the merger with enix. I recall waiting 2 and half days to print off the entire FF7 strategy guide for the original…
I’m very excited for the Call of Duty Modern Warfare! Because CoD 4 was really the reason what introduced me to FPS and made me like FPS games! Can’t wait to get my hands on the new game, hopefully in it’s core is the same as old cod4 just with better graphics!!!
I cannot wait for Bethesda’s new elder scrolls 6! Been playing elder scrolls games all my life and Skyrim was an absolute masterpiece and I can’t wait to see them best Skyrim with the new installation!
im excited to see what exactly the ps5 will be about
I’m most excited for Pokemon sword and shield for the switch from Nintendo because I’ve been playing the games since red and blue, and now I’m getting to share them with my kids. They enjoyed Let’s Go and I’m excited to explore gen 8 with them.
I’m very excited to see the reveal of Square Enix’s, Marvel’s Avengers. As a huge fan of the MCU and a long time comic book reader, it’s going to be awesome playing as Marvel’s top heroes on the PS4 and XBOX 1. Especially since either of these consoles will be getting Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3.
I am looking forward to Crash Team Racing; brought to us by Beenox and Activision for the PS4. Crash games are great family time games!
I’m super excited to hear more about CD Project Red’s new video game, Cyberpunk 2077! When they did their trailer reveal at the Xbox showcase last year my heart almost Stopped. I love that type of Science Fiction so much and I hope it will stand along my other favourites such as Halo 3 and Skyrim. I love personal stories with major scopes and I have faith that this game will be one.
I am very excited about Nintendo’s new Link games, specifically The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening. I have been a fan of these games for a long time and now I get to share them with my kids, it’s something we enjoy together!
So excited about Cyberpunk 2077 by CD Projekt!! It’s been 8 years and the hype has not gone down for even one day, can not wait to get it once it’s out!!!!!
I’m looking forward to maybe hearing more about Metroid Prime 4 by Retro Studios and Nintendo. I was very disappointed when they delayed it and even though this would be very soon for them to make an announcement about it, one can hope! This has been my favourite game series for a long time and can’t wait for a new addition!
I am most exited for Microsoft’s announcement of the specs of there next gen console. It is rumored to bet he most powerful of the next gen consoles. When it comes to game it is the next gen call of duty modern warfare.
I’m so excited for everything Nintendo has to say, but i am mostly excited for any and all news about the new animal crossing game for swtich! i love the switch as a platform and have been waiting to hear about animal crossing for so long! i also have been holding off on buying a switch until the new animal crossing game is out so i dont currently have one! winning one would be AMAZING. i have loved animal crossing since i was a wee little kid! woooo animal crossing LETS GOOOOO
I’m most excited for Borderlands 3 announced by Gearbox because I’ve always found the comedy in borderlands to be incredibly humorous. It’s a game that I can laugh while also playing a shooter.
I love seeing my favourite games change with new characters, maps and game play. It’s a whole new adventure that I can’t wait to spend hours playing and enjoying with my friends!
I am excited for Nintendo’s Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening which was announced on February 13, 2019. I played the original game years ago when I was a kid (which I do still have) and I am really looking forward to experiencing the updated graphics on the Switch. I am also looking if Nintendo will announce another Legend of Zelda game like Breath of the Wild.
On the PS4 I am really looking forward to Borderlands 3, announced by Gearbox Software on April 3, 2019 and am hoping there is more gameplay footage during E3. I am currently replaying Borderlands 2 again! It’s a series that I really love on the PlayStation.
