I am really excited for the new version of the Nintendo Switch. most excited for hopefully a new animal crossing will be announced during E3 this year. I have played animal crossing from Will U to 3DS, looking forward to playing it on Switch.
It’s hard to beat the excitement of Kingdom Hearts but anything Mario has my vote hands down
Excited for Square Enix’s Marvel Avengers game, I’ve grown up with Marvel all my life and have become a huge fan especially of Spiderman who’s been my favorite since I could understand who and what a superhero was.
The gaming announcement that has me most excited for the Xbox One X 1TB Tom Clancy’s The Division 2 Bundle. The reason I want to have this Xbox and the game is because I would love to get an Xbox also I have been playing Tom Clancy games for 7 years and I really enjoys them
I’m typically into JRPGs (Final Fantasy, Dragon Quest, etc.) but Borderlands remains one of my favourite series (great gunplay with RPG elements), so I was really excited to see the announcement of Borderlands 3 from Gearbox. Can’t wait to play it!
I am so hyped for the last of us 2. I’ve played the first one and I thought it was one of the greatest games of all time. Also the last of us was my very first game that I played on the PS4 and I’m very excited to see how the last of us 2 will be like!
I’m excited to see what the next gen Xbox will look like, and what the games are going to look like on it. Mainly anything to do with Xbox systems/exclusives. Also I want to see more of Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare.
I’m so excited for “Trover saves the universe.” It looks hilariously stupid in the best ways possible, nothing new for “Rick and Morty” creator Justin Roiland. It looks like it will be a lot of fun to play on either ps4 or pc. I’ve also never tried VR, so I’d be pretty sweet for this to be my first entry.
Looking forward to seeing the trailer and more details for the Marvel Avengers game from
Square and also any surprise announcements that may arise at E3!
I am so hyped for the last of us 2. I’ve played the first one and I thought it was one of the greatest games of all time. Also the last of us was my very first game that I played on the PS4 and I’m very excited to see how the last of us 2 will be like!
2K’s Borderlands 3!! Borderlands 2 was the first online co-op game that I was able to play with my boyfriend. It not only got me hooked on the series, but hooked on gaming too! I can’t wait to see what this one brings to the table.
I’m most looking forward to Halo MCC from Microsoft for the PC, been playing it on xbox, but to play Halo co-op with my uncle will be a treat, who I got into gaming back in ’96 with Duke3d and Quake, and we’ve been playing co-op ever since, like Serious Sam and Borderlands, too many good times since and I’m sure more to come, bring on Halo MCC PC!!!!
Cant wait for Death Stranding. This action game developed by Kojima for PlayStation 4 seems seems abstract and intriguing to capture my attention. To be released November 8, 2019.
I just LOVE Nintendo games, Pokémon, Mario, animal crossing, Zelda, smash bros. Their all amazing. It would be an honour to win☺️
I’m most excited for Final Fantasy VII Remake by Square Enix for the PlayStation 4! It’s been a long time coming and I know they will have something to show at E3 after the last trailer they debuted during PlayStation State of Play. Perhaps a release date? It’s looking very polished and I am dying to relive one of my favourite childhood games. I grew up with the franchise and Final Fantasy VII and its spin-offs and film Advent Children have all provided me with some very cherished memories. I can’t wait!
I’m excited for mobile VR, specifically Oculus Quest and the upcoming release from HTC.
Looking forward to see what GameFreak and Nintendo bring us with Pokemon Sword and Shield. Been playing Pokemon since Gen 2 and I’m always up to see how they try and change the spectrum to keep their current fan base engaged while also bring in new fans as well. I haven’t bought a Switch yet, but I’m hoping that these are the games that get me to.
I am most excited for Nintendo’s announcement for Animal Crossing. Although little information has been released, I am looking forward to their E3 panel this year. My husband and I are huge Nintendo supporters, so majority of the new titles being released make us ever so excited to try them all!
I am most excited about the release of PS5 console by Sony Entertainment as it will feature millisecond-loading time and holograph emitter in the console (and controllers). And how it will be backwards compatible with PS4 games.The reason why this is important to me is that knowing I would experience the stuff (i.e. seeing actual holograms) only I used to watch from sci-fi movies. It would be a dream come true. With the recent announcement of Sony, I know that I could already reach it by my hand. I hope they release it soon.
The most exciting game announcement for me was legendary Battletoads game. I was simply trilled when I herd that this hardcore game of my childhood making its way to XBox one console. Can not wait to play this game.
Im excited about the new mario maker because when mario maker 1 came out I didn’t had a switch/wii-U and I still don’t have one to this day but I can still go play with my friend who is at least 10 time more exited about it
Really excited for the new call of duty. Activision announced that modern warfare 2019 will contain classic characters and a throw back to some old gaming modes with a revamped solo campaign mode. On top of that infinity ward stated it would be cross platform as well. Will be awesome to play a game with the feeling of nostalgia with all friends on every gaming device.
I’m most excited for the upcoming Marvel Avenger’s game. I’ve been a huge Marvel fan since I was a kid and we’ve never really had a good blockbuster Avengers game.
I’m eager to learn more about Stadia from Google. There might be a new Baldur’s Gate coming on it. I used to spend hours playing this game co-op. Bring back more couch gaming and action RPGs.
Im completely excited for anything even remotely related to ps4. I have been playing with playstation since the playstation 2 ( greatest console ever btw) and from then playstion has never failed me. I mostly excited for the playstation 4 1 TB becasue i have the 500gb and would really like the upgrade in storage and performance. I got this from sony website
I am looking forward to Pantheon: Rise of the Fallen by Visionary Realms. An mmorpg, with contributions from creators of many different mmo’s!
I can’t wait for more Destiny info, year three of the second entry in the franchise and maybe some D3 anouncements too! Info coming from Bungie themselves. I would love to get news about crossplay too.
I am really excited for the marvel’s new game. They have hinted it through their social accounts that a new Avengers game is in development. Being a fan of marvel movies has made me excited for this year’s E3.
Iam super excited about any announcement for the avengers project or the next gem consoles
I’m excited for the plans ahead for the Xbox and PS4 and it’s future console. Also hoping that we get news on Final Fantasy 7 remake. Of course all the future upcoming games especially RPG adventure type games. It’s a week we definitely can’t miss out.
Im excited for the next generation playstation. Ive been with playstation ever since the PS1 and am looking forward to enjoying the new features.
cyberpunk 2077 got me hyped up since its announcement. Could you imagine a game as that could be as big as skyrim but futuristic. This could change my view on a lot of single player games with all the directions there going for. Like the choice you make may affect the way the mission is played out. That and since its a CD project game you know how much effort that make to create a good game. the world may not be as big but it will be higher with all of their huge building with all floor being different and not simulated. i hope they announce a release date very soon.
I am so excited for the Ninetendo E3 Direct 2019 and release of the Nintendo game Animal Crossing on the Switch platform! I heard the manufacturer Ninetendo make this announcement as well read it in an online article by Games Radar!
Excited about the PS5 and what it will bring to console gaming. Faster processing, higher definition and hopefully features to enhance the overall console experience!
I am excited for ALL Nintendo game releases in 2019. My highlight would be the release of Super Mario Maker 2, coming soon June 28 2019- in 22 days! This announcement is important because I love all things Nintendo Super Mario. This is a game and I can’t wait to play! I saw the announcement from ebgames and checked it out in Business Insider.
I’m excited for the next-gen Xbox console and new features they are adding to the existing console 🙂
So like I would have to say I am most excited for call of duty: modern warfare or the Xbox project maverick because I love the call of duty series and project maverick is a disc-less Xbox one x that is perfect for me cuz I have only digital games and it also will make the Xbox one x affordable
I am very excited for Square Enix’s upcoming Marvel’s Avengers game. I am a console gamer at heart who loved the recent Spirderman game on PS4 and has felt a hole in my heart since Avengers End Game concluded….Hopefully this game lives up to the excitement and helps to keep the Avengers alive!
I’m super hyped for call of duty: modern warfare. i’m very excited since the last few years of COD have been a little shaky to say the least and this brings hope for more good things to come. it will be nice to go back to a series we left behind 8 years ago with fresh eyes and see our old favourite characters back in action! this announcement was made by Activision and Infinity Ward studios
Im excited for anything new from PS4 , I have been playing Playstation for over 20 yrs,,, bring on the new fun
Super excited for the remake of Links Awakening on the Nintendo Switch…now to find a switch…
I’m excited for the next-gen Xbox console and new features they are gonna add to the existing console.
I am pumped for Gears 5 from TC and Animal Crossing from Nintendo!
The game I am looking forward to is animal crossing from Nintendo!
I’m really excited for the Microsoft presentation of Cyberpunk 2077 by CD Projekt. Ever since I stumbled upon the Deus Ex and Shadowrun franchise, I’m been really intrigued by the idea of cyberpunk and that genre. I think dystopian in general has always interested me, but I like to see the fantasy and sci-fi side of that in cyberpunk, because it brings up the ideas about humanism and transhumanism all packaged under the concept of a potential future. Cyberpunk is a genre that seems just beyond reach in the sense that we are not likely to see a future exactly like that of 2077 or Deus Ex, but the fact that there is still a possibility make it ever more tantalizing.
The game I am most eagerly awaiting for is square Enix marvels avengers for the ps4. if it is anything like the work that was done on the Spider-Man game, which was my favourite game that year, we will all be in for endless hours of playing.
I’m probably most excited for cyberpunk 2033, I enjoyed the Witcher 3 so much that I nearly beat it 100%, so it’ll be interesting to see projeckt red’s take on a futuristic game!
With an epic new Star Wars game coming and the announcement of a new Halo game my inner child is leaping with joy. The Halo series is what got me hooked on gaming and I can’t wait to hear more about it from Microsoft and 343 Studios. There’s still something so special and exciting about unwrapping a brand new adventure with the Master Chief all these years later.
I am really excited to see if we get any news about the new sony console. Been a fan since the original PlayStation and excited for the new generation to be announced!
I’m really excited for Nintendo to provide more information on Animal Crossing! I’ve loved that game since the GameCube era and I can’t wait to see what’s in store.
