I am really excited about Last of us 2 in ps4. Because I love Naughty dog for its Uncharted franchise. I have been addicted to them since uncharted 1.
Im most excited for Final Fantasy 7 remake for PS4 announced by Square Enix. I played the original years back when i was just a kid. I have been recently getting back into final fantasy from this announcement. Finished FFxv and just started FFx and having a blast. Hopefully the remake is just as good as the original.
excited for cod modern warfare by activision. i love the cod franchise but the last few have been lacklustre this one looks promising with the new engine.
I am most excited to hear the Pokemon Sword and Shield announcement for Nintendo Switch! I have been a Pokemon fan for the last 20 years (since I was 3 years old!) and have had every Nintendo system except the Switch!
Game Freak and The Pokemon Company all the way!!
I’m most excited by the new Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (I know, every time the same hype, but what can I do?), developed by Infinity Ward/Activision. The reveal trailer was amazing and it only adds to the hype.
Can’t wait to play super smash bros ultimate! Gonna be epic!
Super Mario Maker 2 from Nintendo! I grew up with Mario games, so to be able to make my own levels and play with friends? Heck yeah!
My husband for the first time played a legend of Zelda game at a friends and it was hilarious. He was so surprised where enemies would come out from, my favourite reaction was to the deku plants popping up XD I grew up with the series and would love to see him play through it on the switch.
What we are most looking forward to is the up coming release of Fire Emblem the 3 houses. My husband has played almost every single game (except the GameCube ones they are expensive please release them on download play already D: ), and the been playing mobile app game every single day since it’s been out. He loves it for the turn base, stagey fighting and I love pairing people and the story. It will be a game that will be enjoyable in many different ways to different people which is why we are excited for it 🙂

I find those games are great for the family and for those who love playing Mario Bros. games on the older Nintendo systems like my family does especially myself!!
I am most excited about Call of Duty Modern Warfare by Activision. It’s been a long time since I’ve played any game from this franchise. Seeing their trailer just brought upon a sense of nostalgia of when I used to grind on their games everyday. I’m eager to learn more about what Infinity Ward and Activision have in store for this next blockbuster game.

I’m looking forward to Microsofts’ event. And to learning more about Captain Price.
I’m most looking forward to Death Stranding from Kojima Productions!
I tend to like games that draw you in with a blend of engrossing story and cinematic qualities. This game looks like it fits the bill. I don’t often get excited by game announcements but this is a rare exception.
Cant wait for call of duty : modern warfare , always been a big fan of the sequel and still play them . Ive seen the trailer and im super hyped!
I’m excited for the new game Call of Duty Modern Warfare by Activision. The graphics seem to be amazing and I like how they are keeping it “boots on the ground” game play. I have been playing these games throughout the series. I’m happy and excited to see the new game.
Originally I was super excited to hear that PlayStation would be launching the PS5 trailer at E3 but since they surprised us with an early trailer launch the next best thing I’m looking for is the launch of another final fantasy game by Square Enix. Final Fantasy has always been a favourite of mine and the fact that they’re making another remastered version has me hyped!
I’m really excited for the new pokémon games. For the nintendo switch so I can play with my sisters. I like to livestream on youtube as well so that would be awesome! I love pokémon i grew up on the game!! It’s so cool to see where it’s come
I am very excited for any new information about the 4th Dragon Age game from Bioware and EA. A trailer and release date would be fantastic!
I look forward to playing Kingdom Hearts 3 (PS4) – I like role-play and it is rated E so the whole family will be able to enjoy it along with me.
I’m pretty excited for the games Pokemon Sword & Shield by Nintendo and The Pokemon Company. I’m a fan of Pokemon’s game since my childhood and I have played pretty much every generation and off-spin of the IP. Also, I’m eager to earn more about the games Starfield and of course, The Elder Scrolls VI from Bethesda in this E3.
Respawn Entertainment (alongside EA) announcing the Jedi Fallen Order is the most exciting thing I can think of right now!!
It means so much to see high level development and excellent gameplay in a Star Wars game. With excellence in the likes of Titanfall 2 and this means it can only get better! May the force be with you, E3!
I excited to hear if the rumours are true about Ubisoft Assassin’s creed new Vikings game. I am a die hard fan. I finish all the games. My collection includes books weapons, statuette and of course clothing of the game.
I’m excited for Super Mario Maker 2 for Nintendo Switch and also for Death Stranding for PS4.
The most hype gameplay reveal at E3 2019 will be BAYONETTA 3, only on the Nintendo Switch. This sequel to arguably the best action brawler of all time has been teased for years and is sure to amp up the gloriously precise chaos of Bayonetta’s pure combat bliss. Thanks to Platinum Games’ near flawless recent track record, one cant help but get excited for the release of their next major masterpiece.
I think it was Google Stadia. It can totally change the way we’re playing, and improve globally our gaming experience. So I’m really curious on how it’ll turn out.
What I am really excited about is the last of us 2 as the demo gameplay was awesome and I think it will be a beautiful story.. Moreover it will be on next gen PlayStation..I can’t wait for this game and next gen PlayStation to come out!!
Well I don’t want to repeat it but. Final fantasy 7 being re done has to be it. There are only a handful of games that left that type of memory burn. It was simply a masterpiece and this type of game gets people excited
Nintendo’s announcement earlier that animal crossing would be coming sometime in 2019 is the gaming news that has got me most excited. I spent countless hours on the GameCube version as a kid, and I can’t wait to see what’s announced at e3.
I’m excited for Pokémon sword and shield.
Honestly I love would love the Xbox pack!
Because my boyfriend and I always use Xbox to game together! And the new LEGO movie game looks so amazing I want it so bad
I am so excited for the new game Cyberpunk 2077 by the developer CD PROJEKT RED ! The game look so full of life, full of cool features and next gen that I just can’t wait to get my hands on it ! Praying for a 2019 release !
I’m definitely most excited for Square Enix’s announcement. Final Fantasy has been an important part of my childhood, and not having something tangible about FFVII for so long has been hard, so hopefully this time we get good concrete news! Also, Marvel has done nothing but shine on the big screen recently, so finally seeing the Avengers Project after so long, especially after the success of Endgame and Spiderman PS4, makes me very excited for their next superhero story driven game.
Square Enix’s Marvel’s Avengers – this project has been under a cloud of secrecy for so long! The Marvel universe is so exciting, and I can’t wait to check out this game and share my love of gaming and Marvel with my 6 year old son!!!
I’m happy about the announcement of Nintendo for Super Mario Maker 2 on Nintendo Switch. Can’t wait to make awesome moment with my friend and family’s!
I am very excited for the up coming E3 event because they are supposed to announce a new Avengers game and I cannot wait to learn more about it and what that game is all about been waiting for an avengers game for awhile
I’m definitely most excited for Square Enix for both the Avengers Project and FFVII. Final Fantasy has been an important part of my childhood, and seeing all these teasers for so long with nothing tangible is heartbreaking, so being able to hear more news is super exciting. Just the same, these past years Marvel has done nothing but shine on the big screen, so hearing more news about this story-driven Avengers title after the huge success of Spiderman PS4 has me extremely excited as well.
I’m really looking forward to the new generation of Xbox kind of intrigued to see how streaming consuls will work over your hard copy consuls and the fact that this time Xbox will exceed PlayStation Specs hoping to build my game in collection by winning a PS4 the only system I don’t have at the moment
The gam I’m most anticipating is most definitely “death stranding” by Kojima that will release on ps4. The reason I’m so excited to see more regarding death stranding is because of how long it’s been in development and how hooked the first trailer got me. Kojima has made a lot of great games and kept me as a loyal fan for many years so I have very high hopes for death stranding. I can’t wait to tune in and see all the awesome announcements!
I’m super excited for Call Of Duty : Modern Warfare (which to me is the greatest war game ever IMO) by Activision. I’m ready to hear more about the game at E3. For me it’s one of the few games in your gaming lifetime where the announcement trailer gives you chills of excitement! Super stoked and can’t wait!
I’m excited for Super Mario Maker 2 for Nintendo Switch. Can’t wait for our family to play.
I’m excited for The Last of Us 2 by Naughty Dog. I’ve been a big fan of all their games and their company has influenced me when making a console decision in the past.
Pokemon Sword/Shield for nintendo switch. I’ve been a huge pokemon fan since pokemon blue/red (was 7 at the time). Back in the days I bought a 3DS for the sole purpose to play pokemon the main pokemon games. The new entry will be the first canon game on a non-portable gaming console ever which make it so important to me.
Call of duty and infinity ward going back to their roots with the new Modern Warfare. Take the franchise back in the right direction. A must play on Xbox One just like COD4 was on the 360.
