Halo Infinite, simply because it is my favorite gaming IP since 2001

Most excited by AMD’s new GPUs. Looking forward to see if this’ll be the end of Nvidia’s reign on mainstream GPUs.

I’m most excited to find out more information on Nintendo’s announcements, specifically for more information revolving the release of Animal Crossing and Luigi’s Mansion because I loved them as a kid. I’m also looking forward to more information on the confirmed Zelda remake and any information on a new Zelda game, my boyfriend and I are very excited about both as Breath of the Wild is our favourite Switch game.

Despite the publisher Sony not being at E3 this year, I am most excited about Naughty Dog’s The Last of Us Part II. I have been a fan of their games since Jak and Daxter and the library they have built since then includes titles that remain among my all time favourites to this day. I fondly remember playing The Last of Us for the first time. The atmosphere of the world they built and even more the characters they had us get to know made the experience of playing the game unforgettable. I am beyond eager to see what they have in store for Ellie and Joel.
I am excited for the new game by CD Projekt Red, Cyberpunk 2077 because i can’t wait to see the world they built for it. Looks insane so far.
I am excited for xbox and ps4 too see what games they can offer and to see how they compete with each other. I am a fan of both so I want to see the games and their future plans for us gamers.
I am by-far the most excited about AMD’s new Navi-based GPUs – the Radeon RX 5000 series. I’ve been waiting and hoping for these cards for over a year to power my gaming PC and a new ultra-wide monitor!
I am really excited for Pokémon Sword/Shield from Nintendo, because finally having a main Pokémon game on the big screen would be awesome.

I am looking forward to Pokemon Sword and Shield from Nintendo as it’s a new adventure unlike the previous one being a remake.
Final Fantasy VII by Square Enix. I spent many hours on the original. I’m looking forward to a release date and the opportunity to spend many more hours on a nostalgic and (hopefully) Bigger and better than the first remake 🙂
Without a doubt it is “Final Fantasy 7 Remake” by Square Ennix. This was my favorite game of all time. I bought it the day it was released and played it multiple times. Can hardly wait to play the remake. Am hoping it has the same effect on me as is did all those years ago
Really looking forward to Fire Emblem: Three Houses by Intelligent Systems and Koei Tecmo Games for the Nintendo Switch. I’ve been playing Fire Emblem since back on the Gameboy Advance and I’ve always enjoyed them so I’ve been really looking forward to this next installment.
I’m most excited for Pokémon Sword/Shield from Nintendo, since we haven’t had a main Pokémon game on a console in forever, so to see the journey come to the big screen would be totally awesome.
I want FIFA 2020, from EA, love me some footie!
Looking forward to Doom Eternal by Bethesda. Not only did I absolutely love the original two Dooms (and the 3rd to a lesser extent) and play them all the time against my brothers & friends as a kid, but the recent Doom reboot was fantastic and I have been waiting patiently for updates regarding Doom Eternal. Very excited to hear the release date and see some more gameplay at E3 this year!
I’m excited for FIFA 2020 by EA to see some great new gameplay
Animal Crossing for the Nintendo Switch! I’ve been playing the Animal Crossing games since 2006 and I love with each new console release of this game seeing what expansions have been made to the gameplay.
Borderlands 3 is easily the most exciting game announcement for me this year!! I’ve been playing this series for a long time and it’s one of my faves. The art style, the characters, the lore, the humor, everything is so memorable and I think that’s what makes it so fun to play. When 2K Games / Gearbox finally announced Borderlands 3 at PAX East this year I was over the moon!
Looking forward to EA announcing Jedi Fallen Order to have a great new game to play
Super excited for the new Pokémon Sword and Shield games by Nintendo! I grew up playing and watching Pokémon and I’m excited to see how Nintendo integrates the game on to the new console
I’m definitely pumped to see Microsoft announce and detail a new generation of Xbox hardware and Halo Infinite. I still remember first playing Halo: Combat Evolved on the original Xbox, and and each new iteration marks the passage of time in my life, showing how far we’ve come!
Call of Duty
Looking forward to Super Mario Maker 2 from Nintendo! If it’s anything like the first, the levels that are designed by the community will be interesting and provide endless hours of fun!
I’m looking forward to Pokemon Sword Shield from Nintendo because the first pokemon game for Switch (Eevee & Pikachu) felt more like releasing a pokemon game for the new console in a hurry.
Modern Warfare by Infinity wards and activision its a good game and i love the first and the second modern warfare i thibk the four is waiting by more person then black ops i like modern warfare please give me my chance 🙂
I am very excited for more information about Link’s Awakening for the Nintendo Switch. Zelda has been my favorite franchise ever since playing Twilight Princess on the Wii and I have been collecting Zelda games ever since.
I’m most excited about CD PROJECT RED’s Cyberpunk 2077! Having come late to the game with Witcher 3 after finally getting a laptop that could run it, I was amazed by the quality of their storytelling and just everything about the graphics and detail and fighting mechanics. Now they’re going from a medieval/fantasy theme to a futuristic/sci-fi and I’m looking forward to see what they do with that world!
