  1. The Legend Of Zelda: Link’s Awakening, announced by Nintendo! I’m hoping this will be the way I steer my kids into the world of Zelda and Link. Something for us all to get excited about.

  2. I’m most exited about the new pokemon core games shield and sword coming in late 2019 as I’m a huge Nintendo and Pokemon fan! Pokemon has been a big part of my life as a gaming experience and it brings people together!

  3. I can’t wait to see Jedi Fallen Order from EA. I love Star Wars and all to do with it so the fact that is a first person story rive game is awesome. I also can’t wait to see what the PD5 has going on.

  4. I am most excited for Square Enix Final Fantasy VII on Sony PlayStation 4! Square enix is one of my favourite game developers and I own every PlayStation console to date! I am most excited for FFVII because it’s a true classic and was my favourite game growing up! Can’t wait!! plus I’d love to show my nephew how to play! Also can’t wait for the PlayStation 5!!

  5. I’m excited to try the new Super Mario brothers. We had an original Nintendo growing up and I love how they keep re-making our old favourites better.

  6. Excited for the PS4 mainly because I have 4 sons who all love gaming on their PS4. Particularly COD!

  7. I am most looking forward to “The Last of Us 2” either on the PS4 or PS5! It would be great if the PS5 was coming out around the some time!

  8. I’m really excited for Jedi Fallen Order!
    I have been a Star Wars fan since I was 6. The manufacturer is EA.
    This game is important to me as it brings back memories, and with big missteps ea has made with games and star wars license its important as this has to be turning point on Disney and ea approaches on what true fans want and that is a journey and building of star wars. if tehy can make games and universe around what looks like a fans want it will start healing starwars from the horrible split and move forward with the fans.

  9. I am excited to know what is to come for the Halo series on XBox now that they have named it Halo Infinite. I would love to know of any game enhancements in story and graphics. Microsoft announce that Halo Infinite will be available on Windows PCs which is very exciting news.

  10. Nintendo’s Mario kart 8 deluxe for the switch. If I had the switch and Mario kart the process of birthing my child would be so easy. I love Mario kart

  11. The gaming announcement that has me most excited in 2019 is on the release of the game Doom Eternal, because I love the game. Bethesda is the manufacturer who made the announcement, and this announcement is so important to me because I really like this and the other games the manufacturer makes.

  12. I’m really excited for Jedi Fallen Order
    I have been a Star Wars fan since I was 4? The manufacturer is EA games
    This game is important to me as it brings back memories, like playing hundreds of hours of Star wars battle front 2 on the PlayStation 2! and with big missteps ea has made with games and star wars licenses.. It looks like they’re really going back to their routes

  13. I’m excited about Link’s Awakening, that Nintendo announced for the Nintendo Switch. Ever since I was a kid and played my first Zelda game, I’ve loved every game in the series… this is a remake of an old game, but I’m excited to be playing it again and reliving some of the old magic!

  14. Really excited for Final Fantasy VII remake update from square enix. I’ll buy any console that this game is on. My only wish would be that they make it so you can play with all the characters from the beginning to the end. That would be very nice. I also love the story, so i don’t mind if they make a movie out of it.

  15. I’m looking forward to more info on the Sony PlayStation 5 (PS5)! I’m already ready to buy it. It’s important to me because I believe it is going to evolve gaming even more than the PS4 did. If there isn’t much info, I hope to see more on the new Star Wars game, Jedi Fallen Order made by EA. I’ve always loved Star Wars games – not one has let me down (well, not too much anyways).

  16. Super Mario maker 2 super excited because I’ve been playing Mario since I was 7 years old always has and always well be my favourite game and the one who made the game is Shigeru Miyamoto

  17. Nintendo switch! I’m excited for all the kid friendly games that are coming out especially any Zelda releases

  18. So excited to see what Fromsoft has been coking up. If the rumors are true it’ll be amazing. If not.. it’ll still be amazing! Those guys are gods!

  19. I am so hype for GHOST OF TSUSHIMA being revealed at E3! The game is a samurai based story game and the leaks have been amazing! The creator of the game is Shigeru Umebayashi. I would really like this game since I have played a lot of samurai games like For Honour by Ubisoft and Nioh 2 closed beta which only a very few bunch were selected. I have really enjoyed them!

  20. Halo Inifnite by 343 Industries. After all these years, the Halo theme intro still gets the adrenaline pumping. The next Halo is long overdue and it’s time to finish the fight, again.

  21. I’m sooo excited for Borderlands 3!!! I’ve been a fan for many years now! It’s like marvel! I’ve stuck with it throughout the years and the next one is just around the corner!

  22. Although the Nintendo Switch revamp has me excited, nothing has me more excited than Microsoft’s Xbox 2 announcement with the rumours of the release of Fable 4. I love RPGs ever since playing Ocarina of Time in the 90’s and the closest thing I’ve found since, is Fable.

  23. Excited for Pokemon Sword and Shield by Nintendo! Can’t wait to see what they have in store for us!

  24. I’m most excited for the release of Sony PS5 (announced by sony). As I have heard that you’ll be able to play games from PS1-PS4 got me very excited. It would be amazing to play my favourite games from PS1 like suikoden II or chrono cross!!

  25. I’m super excited for the updates on Mount and Blade Banerlord because I’ve been waiting for the game since I started playing Mount and Blade Warband

  26. I am really excited for Pokemon sword and shield by Gamefreak, Pokemon Company and Nintendo on the Nintendo Switch! I have been a fan since I was a kid back when Red and Blue came out and I’ve been playing ever since! I would love a Nintendo Switch to play them on!

  27. Final Fantasy 7 remake for ps4. The benchmark was set by this game for all games that came after! Haven’t quite felt as emotionally charged to a game since I played ff7 decades ago. Excited to see what Sony and Square Enix have up their sleeve this E3! Maybe they can keep the trend going and do ff8 and ff9 remix also!

  28. I’m most looking forward to Death Stranding for PS4 because of the minds of Del Toro and Kojima with Reedus in the main role is just amazing and I played the heck outta PT and was looking forward to Silent Hills and when it was cancelled took a huge hit so it just means a lot as Kojima made some of my most favourite games of all time.
    Hours upon hours figuring out Metal Gear as a kid and I’m excited to see the new world he brings to life.
    Lots of things play into this and to top it all off I’ve had the game fully paid off and pre-ordered for 3 years.
    So here’s looking at E3 kids

  29. I’m really excited for Jedi Fallen Order!
    I have been a Star Wars fan since I was 6. The manufacturer is EA.
    This game is important to me as it brings back memories, and with big missteps ea has made with games and star wars license its important as this has to be turning point on Disney and ea approaches on what true fans want and that is a journey and building of star wars. if tehy can make games and universe around what looks like a fans want it will start healing starwars from the horrible split and move forward with the fans.

  30. I am really excited for everything. The new cod, bf, and so much more!!!! Going to be a crazy year for gaming!

  31. PlayStation 5
    Thank you Sony for the much anticipated system and the backwards compatibility to keep the PS4 games inline with the new stuff about to come!

  32. I am the most excited for Nintendo’s ANIMAL CROSSING SWITCH for the Nintendo Switch! It’s scheduled to come out sometime this year and it’s so important to me because I love Nintendo. I haven’t owned a console since I owned a Nintendo Game Boy Advance and I would love the chance to play Animal Crossing. It’s SO CUTE and I know it would be a great way to relax and kick back. Nintendo was such an integral part of my life growing up that I really am dreaming about getting a switch. Thanks so much for the chance.

  33. Gaming console of choice: PlayStation, PS4 has been great and with the PS5 around the corner, I myself can truly say this has been a system much anticipated and sought after for quite some time. Koodos to Sony for taking a further step into the future I’m stoked to see what the graphics are going to be like for future gaming especially with the backwards compatibility!

  34. It’s to hard to pick just one so I’ll name 3:
    1)Cyberpunk 2077
    2) Death Stranding
    3) Final Fantasy VII remake
    Preferably for the PS4, but beggars can’t be choosers I just wanna get my hands on these.

  35. Super excited to find out what Nintendo is going to unveil at E3, they have been knocking it outta the park the last couple of years

  36. I am very excited for the Avengers game from square enix and crystal dynamics on PS4. Been waiting 2 years+ for that one. Also hoping Capcom reveals something resident evil or dino crisis related. Fingers crossed

  37. I was very excited when Ubisoft release Assassin’s Creed Unity for free! It’s not a new game, I know, but all Assassin’s Creed titles deserves to shine. They are very accurate on the graphics part and the story is very entertaining. Also, we were able to see that their game are so accurate that they will be able to rebuilt Notre Dame de Paris because of the replica of the church. I was so impressed about this and glad to see that they give for free the game to everyone who wants to keep a “souvenir” from the church AND also who give a big amount of money to Paris to help. They are the only gaming company who gets so much socially implicated.

  38. I’m so excited for the PS5 console!! I’m new to the gaming community and I’m so happy to come in at a time of such peak technology. The technology that is in the gaming industry is beyond amazing! I love how it has even began helping of industries such as medicine!

  39. I am excited for the game Star Wars Jedi fallen order from EA. I love all Star Wars movies, games, paraphernalia. I got really into Star Wars battlefront.

  40. I’m honestly most excited for “Trover saves the universe” by Squanch Games, LLC. Squanch™, for PS4.
    My brother and I are huge fans of Justin Roiland (Rick and Morty), and this game is filled with his stupid, in the best way, humour.

  41. Just moved to Canada from Iraq via Turkey! I’m finally free and just got back to gaming slowly. I’m really excited to play everything that come out!! Good luck for everyone here!
