I’m excited for the PlayStation 5 being announced it hasn’t been confirmed yet but my PlayStation just got ruined so it’ll be great if the new ones announced
Looking forward to the new Pokemon games, and I can’t wait to see the new dlc’s for super smash bros ultimate, The Nintendo switch is by far my favorite console and Nintendo does a great job with the smash brothers franchise. I would love to see what new changes are gonna be made in terms of balance changes and online experience which is currently pretty disappointing to be honest. Nintendo isn’t really supportive of the competitive side of smash brothers, but I would love to have a more rewarding experience when battling opponents online.
All square enix announcement will bee awesome I love role playing game espicilly all final fantasy anouncement
Last of us 2 on PS4 has me excited
STADIA!!! It’s the future of console gaming. No longer have to worry about console set frame rates and laggy online speeds. It’s the next generation and I’m very excited.
Microsoft’s next generation Xbox. (Project Scarlett). Xbox has always been a great gaming console. Looking to see where they take it next.
Borderlands 3 has me the most excited this year. I have spent countless hours and nights playing all of the other borderlands games with my friends over the years. Their stories, characters and game play are always super fun. 2k games made the announcement for borderlands 3 earlier this year and I am super excited for it ! It has me so excited because I feel like 2k games has taken the best parts of their previous games and improved them. My binging of Netflix and outside activities are going to take a huge hit when this game comes out !
Really excited for Pokemon Sword and Shield Game by Game Freak, which releases later this year. Pokemon has always been a part of me from early childhood to now. Though, the last game within the series I have played was Pokemon Black and White 2, so it would be an amazing experience to relive the nostalgia.
In 2019 I am very excited for the release of the games Pokémon sword and shield on the Nintendo switch. I have played every Pokémon game ever made. Nintendo had released the statement earlier this year about the release.
Im realy excited for divison 2 , id like to have the Xbox one x with division or the ps4pro for being able to play the last of us 2 when release!!!cant wait for the E3 with ubisoft etc
Rockstars e3 announcement about the next gta
I’m most excited to play Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice! I love the plot and my fave game genre is action and adventure. I’ve watched the E3 reaction videos to Sekiro a few times on YouTube already!
Super excited for FFVII by Square Enix on PS4! Back to the memory lane
the new pokemon game
I’m most excited about the next PlayStation console. Curious about the specs, cross-platform gaming and new games possibly announce for it.
Nintendo switch, my family are big gamers but kids are still young, so the switch would be amazing to play as a family!! And we go on road trips a lot so the versatility of it being handheld is amazing!! Any new Mario games or Mario related games are always the best!!
I am very excited for Nintendo’s announcement because they have a lot of new titles and updates to talk about. Namely, I am looking forward to Pokémon Sword and Shield and new Smash Ultimate DLCs. These are very important to me because I can’t wait to get updates for my switch. I haven’t really played a classical pokemon game in a long time.
I’m most excited for the new info on the next Star Wars game : The fallen order. I’m really hoping for inclusive characters that the lgbtq community can identify with. Games are very important to allot of people. And so is Star Wars. I hope EA improves allot of game mechanics and better storytelling than last time. They carry a heavy burden.
I’m really excited about AMD’s new Navi graphics cards for the PC. It sounds like they finally have something competitive with Nvidia’s higher end.
Xbox one new everything and anything!
Excited for the PC gaming boost! Lots of games coming out this summer would be nice to enhance the experience!
Fortnite
I am excited about the new pokemon game – sword and shield by game freak as I have been waiting for so long for a pokemon game to hit an console that is not just a handheld that I can play on my TV. This is super exciting as I love playing pokemon growing up
Star Wars Jedi: fallen order. I have always been a huge Star Wars fan. Watching the originals while i was young. And hopping that it is made by the creative team of bioware. Also that EA doesn’t hurt it with being over bearing.
World of Warcraft classic
Mortal Kombat 11/ NBA 2k20- I have been buying that game from Sega Genesis years and continued on my other systems and got it the day it came out. I don’t play many games but I always have buy the New NBA 2k series as well
The x box because we own all the other ones
I’m excited to buy and eventually play sniper elite v2 remastered by Rebellion. I’m currently playing sniper elite 4. Based on what I see on YouTube this game is really going to be an upgraded version of the previous version. This is a game to play when you want to do it old school. Unlike modern video games where you have access to futuristic armor, weapons, using GPS and other electronic devices for communication and/or distractions. This is a video game where you don’t see or hear animals because, people most often end up eating domesticated pets. In the game you can hear a kid crying. You can use weapons that was used during the first and second world wars. Even the uniforms, structures and vehicles are historically accurate. You can even see the path of the bullet as it goes through a soldier’s organs. Sometimes, if you are lucky. You can shoot multiple people with one bullet. If you are looking for a video game that is historically accurate, uses stealth and allows you to be a sniper. This is definitely worth the money.
XBOX One X – Tom Clancy Division 2
I can’t wait for Nintendo to show more on Pokémon sword and shield, I’ve played every Pokémon game since red and blue and I don’t plan on stopping now!
Playstation
Super excited for naughty dog’s the last of us part 2! first game was amazing when i got around to playing it a few months ago and i can’t wait to see where joel and ellie’s story goes next!!
Looking forward to the next GTA release! I thought GTA V was great and can’t wait for Rockstars next instalment in this series!
Looking forward to playing more seasons of Fortnite on ps4 good luck everyone
Cyberpunk 2077 has me most excited because it’s from the studio that gave us The Witcher 3, still my favourite game years later.
I’m most excited for new gaming platforms like Google’s Stadia, to see what they’ve come up with and how much better of an experience they can make for gaming.
interested in death stranding, the dark pictures, and updates on ps5 release.
The Game that has me most excited for is Cyberpunk 2077 because I am a massive of the developer CD Projekt Red fan and the Witcher 3 was amazing. The game was announced back in 2013 and is still in development but hopefully CD projeket will announce the release date for my xbox one X. What makes it so imprtant to me is the fact that this could be one of the greatest open wore and RPG games of all time maybe even being better than Skyrim. With how amazing this engine has made the graphics lool and the story there no telling how good this game could be.
Looking forward to more seasons in 2019 for Fortnite good luck to all the games are getting better year after year love all new content.
I am most excited about “Final Fantasy 7 by Square Enix” For the Sony Playstation 4!
Last of us 2 ! From naughty dog . First one was incredible , one of my fav games of all time . Can’t wait for part 2
I can’t wait to hear about the new call of duty this year loved them my whole gaming experience and still play them to this day I also wish to see stuff about the PS5 too !!
New PC gaming advancements possibly razer?
Pokeman game!!
Last of us 2 by naughty dog . The first one is in my list of fav games of all time so I can’t wait for this one .
I am very excited to see more information and gameplay of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare by Activision’s Infinity Ward studio. It is refreshing to step back to a modern take on the franchise yet again, amongst the vast majority of futuristic shooters, which in my opinion has gone stale. Feels nostalgic to pay a visit to the time of Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, which was arguably one of the more cherished games of it’s franchise. Despite it’s similar name, it seems like it’s going to take things in a new direction!
I’m definitely most excited for Bethesda’s elder scrolls VI ! I’ve put more hours into this series than any other and I can’t wait to put more hours into this one. I’ve played Skyrim about as much as I can (and on as many systems as I can) and I want new adventure!
Whatever Avengers game that Square Enix has been cooking up, that’s what I’m most excited for! They’ve been such a big part of the last 11 years (more than half my life), and Insomniac’s Spider-Man was so good, I can’t wait to see and play more Marvel content! I’m ready to fight as Iron Man, both Captains Marvel and America alike, as well as command the Asgardian and Wakandan armies!
Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, developed by Respawn Entertainment and published by EA is the title I’m looking forward to playing. I’ve been waiting for a LONG time for another quality, single player Star Wars game….. hoping this can deliver more than the Force Unleashed and Battlefronts have.
Square Enix released a Final Fantasy 7 remake trailer back in early May 2019 and at the end it says more in June which obviously should be E3. I have never played Final Fantasy 7 ever, even though I owned a PlayStation 1 back when I was a kid. I am so EXCITED to see more news and hope to play Cloud on the PS4!!!
