I’m excited with Nintendo’s Mario Kart 9 games for the Nintendo Switch. I have enjoyed the Mario games from day one.
I’m looking forward to seeing the astro headset and the k70 keyboard!
Multiplayer games on Nintendo Switch would be fun to hear about. With the popularity of Switch, it would be great to have more multiplayer games to play with friends.

I can’t for DOOM Eternal, by Bethesda. I’m a huge fan of the DOOM franchise.

The most exciting announcement for me, was Death Stranding’s release date. The latest trailer showcases Kojima’s brilliance, and I absolutely can’t wait to figure out what it all means November 8. Not to mention, Metal Gear is easily one of my favourite gaming franchises, so I’m definitely expecting great things from Kojima’s latest game.
Looking forward to 343 industries’ Halo MCC on PC. Like many people i grew up with these games and adored them, Halo Reach is among my favourite games to this day. Also like many people i wanted to play the game on PC, Halo always seemed like a game that would play better on mouse and keyboard along with the usual PC upgrades like: FPS, FOV, mods, etc. Along with MCC, Halo infinite intrigues me and i will be looking out for any news on that.
I can’t wait to see Microsoft unveil the next Xbox console! I’ve been a diehard Xbox fan ever since I first played halo: combat evolved
I’m looking forward to hearing news about doom eternal and also avenger games from SE.
avenger title is awesome. really hope SE doesn’t screw up this time.
Bethesda Game Studios’ Rage 2… can’t wait!!
Nintendo for their new Pokémon Nintendo Switch! Typically it’s been reserved for handheld systems and not for consoles. I grew up with Nintendo and most of my early gaming experiences was with them.
Death Stranding from Kojima Productions on PS4 has me so pumped and yet so confused all at the same time. Bring it on!!
I’m most excited to see a Cyberpunk 2077 (on PC) update from CD Projekt RED as it’s living, breathing city and futuristic cyberpunk aesthetic looks amazing, and their previous games have been excellent.
I’m super excited to hear more about Desth Stranding by Hideo Kojima. I’m hopeful we’ll get a closer look at this game during E3 this year. I’ve been looking forward to this game for almost 5 years now!
Call of Duty : Modern Warfare on Xbox one because it’s the first saga of game with pvp battle with gun that I’ve try with my brother and this saga gave me the mood on continuing to play Call of Duty game’s. It’s giving me the trill that Modern Warfare will recome better than ever and it sure that me and my friends will buy it on the November 25 and have fun playing it
Utawarerumono Prelude to the Fallen
NIS America software
Visual novel/srpg for PS4
Announced in 2019 for an early 2020 release date.
This is part 1 of 3, which has never gotten an official North American release. Part’s 2&3 are my favourite IP. After spending about 200 hours on 2+3, you get really attached to the characters, and I got more emotionally into it then any other media property. I am very eagerly awaiting the long overdue release of part 1
The new pokemon game for nintendo switch. Cant wait
The one announcement that got me really excited was CTR:Crash Team Racing Nitro Fueled for PS4 announced by Beenox and Activision. I had many fond memories of playing the original CTR on PS1 and I know it would be incredible to relive the action on the PS4 . Though the original version was done by Naughty Dog, I am sure they would do it justice.
I’m looking forward to new Borderlands 3 news and gameplay footage.
I am most excited for Borderlands 3 from Gearbox because it’s a series I’ve been following since the very first one. Growing up playing it had has made it so nostalgic for me and I cannot wait to see how #3 turns out!
I recently got into smash ultimate made a lot of memories with my friend on it but unfortunately I don’t own a switch so I really want the switch package so I can play my friends online and hone my skills to get better so I can participate in tournaments.
PS5 of course!
I’m most excited about Nintendo’s Pokemon Sword and Shield. The Pokemon franchise was an important part of my childhood and I can’t wait to see the next iteration on the switch!
I’m mostly looking forward to more info on the Sony PS5. I’m very curious as to what specs it will have, and how much of an improvement it will be over the PS4 Pro. I’m hopeful it will be a big jump, but an fearful it will be minor.
I can’t wait to play Mario Maker 2. This game was announced on a Nintendo direct for the Nintendo Switch. The direct was held February 13 2019, and will be released on June 28 2019. On of the reasons I want to play this game is I didn’t get the chance to play the first one so I have been waiting for this game. One of the other reasons is my wife and I are having a baby boy next month and when he gets old we will definitely play together!
I’m pumped with PS5 announcement! That’s excite all playstation fans!
Last of us part 2 from Nautghy Dog! I loved the first part, truly a masterpiece!

I’m really looking forward to seeing more about Google Stadia. I’m curious to see if this shakes up the market for consoles or is just a flash in the pan.
I am most excited about Super Mario Maker 2 game for Nintendo Switch. I was a big fan as a kid growing up with my SNES and playing Super Mario World. Looking forward to the 2nd version of the game where I get to customize my very own Super Mario level. Amazing. Love the classics. Getting to design my own Super Mario World level brings be back when I was kid with my brother playing endless hours of this game. I read about the news of the release on Games Radar: https://www.gamesradar.com
I don’t know if this counts, but the the official Shang Tsung Gameplay Trailer and Kombat Pack 1 Reveal for Mortal Kombat was announced on YouTube a few days ago by PlayStation! Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa made Shang Tsung so iconic in the first Mortal Kombat movie and having him immortalized in the game is such an amazing tribute. They had his class line “Your soul is mine!” said during the fight and in his victory pose. Spawn was announced as one of the guest characters for Kombat Pack 1 and a lot of people had requested for him to appear in the game. It looks like they got their wish! I was also excited that Sindel was announced and I’m hoping that she will have a brand new look in whichever future announcement trailer they have her in.
Excited to see what AMD will show at E3. Most likely it’ll be showcasing Navi, I cannot wait to see what it can do, compared to its previous generation!
Mario
I am very excited about Bethesda! Maybe a gameplay about Starfield and a nice teaser on the next Elder Scrolls? Thank you Best Buy for this giveway ! I’d really enjoy winning the Nitendo pack with Mario Odyssey

There is a massive amount of great game titles being announced/released in the very near future. I’m most excited for Halo: Infinity, by 343 Studios. I’ve been a HUGE Halo fan for many years and this game is long overdue!
For me, it’s Halo Infinite from Microsoft. Although I sold my Xbox to get a PS4, I am still very hopefully they can revive the halo franchise and turn it around. Halo Guardians left a lot to be desired and I have a lot of fond memories playing the halo series with my dad. I hope by the time this game comes out, I can enjoy it with my son.
Hopefully a new zelda announcement!!
PlayStation 5 system announcement. It is time for an upgrade and this will mark the beginning of the next generation of fantastic gaming consoles.
