  1. I got really excited when I saw the 2K announcement for Borderlands 3 because I been playing all the other borderlands for years and now and this one looks like it’s going to be a very good addition to the series.

  2. Looking forward for NBA 2K20 for Xbox One by Microsoft. There’s lots of new things that are rumored to be on this game which makes it so much more exciting to play once it comes out. It look promising and i have high hopes this year for 2K.

  3. The more soild talk about Final fantasy 7 remake, announced by PlayStation. I have been waiting for this game to come out since ps3 made a announcement. Play the original and have always been an FF fan.

  4. i’m most excited for square enix’s new avengers game. i’ve been a big fan of the MCU and would like to finally play an avengers game

  5. I was most excited for Kingdom Hearts 3. I think I scanned the forums looking at the worlds release at least 100 times. Honestly though- when the game was released and I got my hands on it (preorder is the best!) I was blown away! Square Enix did an incredible job- and I wasn’t even expecting the level of incredible gameplay- still playing, still loving it!

  6. Sony’s Playstation 5!! I am longtime console player who is looking forward to bridging the gap in performance between pc and console.

  7. The biggest game release i am Anticipating is Formula 1 2019 Anniversary edition developed by codemasters because i am a huge Mercedes fan but i have never been never been able to play the game and i wish i could play it on the ps4 pro because all my friends have ps4’s so it would be an even better experience. Plus this year F1 2019 is rumoured to support PS VR and 4K on PS 4 pro

  8. Looking forward to seeing the Final Fantasy VII Remake by Square Enix for PS4. It’s a game coming soon that will keep me busy for the summer!

  9. Really excited for Square Enix’s Marvel Avengers and Final Fantasy remake. I remember my older brothers playing that game and I would just watch. It brought us a lot closer, and playing it, hopefully would reunite us again.

  10. I’m super excited by Activision, Infinity Ward and their announce of the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare reboot!

    Why? Simply because this will be the first AAA to have cross-platform between Xbox One, PS4 and PC!

    Once this game is released, many more developers will consider cross-platform and more games will connect more people across the globe. Regardless of which platform you’re on, we can share the same experience together!

    This potentially is the biggest gaming innovation for a long time.

  11. I’m most excited for the Final Fantasy VII remake, I played the original when it came out and loved it.

  12. Hi I would really like the PS4 pro because my aunt baby sits me a lot and I have nothing to do there if I get a PS4 when I got to her house I will have something to do I hope I win

  13. I am excited for animal crossing for the switch!!! I love nintendo and all its games especially animal crossing and mario games! While I dont have a switch yet i sure would love one for its portability and being able to play in a house with family and friends or in a condo appartment with just me and my roommate.

  14. I cant wait to see if they will talk about the ps5 and if we ubisoft will talk about a new AC 🙂 one of the best game ever

  15. Borderlands 3 that’s coming in the fall can’t wait for my PS4 copy! The other borderlands games were awesome! 2k done well making them! Like how it’s a shooter game with all these crazy weapons and you get to drive around in vehicles funny story line.

  16. Pokemon Sword and Shield from Game Freak on the Nintendo Switch!! I’m a huge fan of Pokemon since it’s all started, can’t wait to play this new title! Wining a swtich would be amazing! Thanks!

  17. Last year, the biggest news from Microsoft were the acquisitions of some major studios like Ninja Theory, Obsidian and Playground Games, as well as solid niche ones like InXile, Compulsion and Undead Labs. I am looking forward to seeing what new games they’ve been developing with Microsoft’s support, and I feel like we’re going to hear a lot about them at E3.

  18. If I were to pick one game that I am very excited about, it would have to be borderlands 3 which is coming up in a few months. Borderlands 1 and 2 hit me hard when I first started playing with my friends on my Xbox 360 where we would grind out both games until no tomorrow! We had so much fun! Once the PS4 came out and it was announced that “The Handsome Collection” would be coming to PS4, I jumped right in there! Gearbox Software has never disappoints, as they keep producing amazing games. They as well made a great “Tales from the Borderlands” game which was so much fun as well. I cannot wait to grind out this game on my PS4 with all my friends! It’s been a long time since we have got a full borderlands game just like 2 with awesome loot and a fun story. CANT WAIT!!!

  19. I am most excited to see the Final Fantasy VII remake! Can’t wait for it to come out, so Nostalgic!!!! <3

  20. I’m excited to see more about the new modern warfare game and finding out more about the cross play. I’ve been a great COD fan since COD4 and hoping it comes back to the good old days and I can get my old friends back together to play! That’s the dream lol

  21. Can’t wait to play Borderlands 3 or The Last Of Us 2 of my playstation or on my Switch to play Zelda a Link To The Past and the new Pokémon Sword and Shield !

  22. I can’t wait for any news about Cyberpunk 2077 from CD Projekt Red. It’s been one of my most anticipated games after it’s announcement because I’m a huge fan of the Cyberpunk elements, it’s customizable options for your own character, and the combat that was all shown in the game’s 48 minute demo. I’ve been so eager for more news on it.

  23. I am really excited to see what’s next in the gaming world with the forthcoming of the newest PlayStation console. I am certain Sony will bring us a gaming experience we have not experienced yet!

  24. I’m most excited to see the final fantasy seven remake, as this game was a major factor in what got me into video games. My older brother who has since passed away had it and as a kid I would watch him play it for hours and now it’s something that I can share with my children and share a part of that time with my brother with them and they can share a part of this new memory going forward.

  25. Hello, I’m an old school gamer. I am very hyped for these 2 announcements from Blizzard. The PC remaster of Warcraft 3 and Vanilla servers(the look and play of original release) of World of Warcraft. ✌️#nostalgia

  26. Really excited to see the announcement of the new Playstation and if it will be compatible with games from the other generation of Playstation.

  27. Excited for Super Mario Maker 2! I don’t have a switch yet but I would love one to try that game.

  28. Hello, I’m an old school gamer so I’m very hyped for these 2 announcements from Blizzard. The PC remaster of Warcraft 3 and Vanilla servers( the look and play of the original release) for World of Warcraft. #Nostagia ✌️

  29. Nintendo announced Pokémon Sword and Shield. This is what I’m most excited about, mainly because it will bring me back to my childhood memories with my brothers.

  30. I’m most excited for Nintendo’s E3 Direct because they always throw in a big surprise that catches almost everyone off guard. The game That I would like to at least make an appearance, and I’d like to know more about during their E3 Direct is the Animal Crossing Switch game! Very Excited for Mario Maker 2 as well! (Sorry if this posts twice.)

  31. I’m definitely excited by Call of Duty Modern Warfare announced by Activision!! I’ve played so many hour of COD on my PS3!

  32. I’m so excited for anything related to Call of Duty – activision. My dad and I always play the newest release ever since they began releasing. And when Xbox came out with live and online gaming and people would kinda cyber bully me because I was a girl – my dad never shamed me for playing games. We still keep up this tradition even as we age, it keeps us close. The Xbox package looks awesome and I’d love to share that with him. Thanks

  33. Without a doubt I’m most excited for the Square Enix announcement of the Final Fantasy VII Remake for the Sony PlayStation 4! I remember the original 1997 launch for the PlayStation like it was yesterday. I spent countless hours immersed in the story and graphics. It was and still is a masterpiece of game that really brought gaming to the next level and what got me hooked on RPGs. I can’t wait to be able to re-live childhood memories on a current generation console!

  34. I’m most excited to see Call of duty – Modern warfare by Infinity ward. The earlier modern warfare series was one of the best call of duty games , excited to see what the new game offers.

  35. I’m pumped to see the new Pokémon sword and shield, I wasn’t super into let’s go eevee and let’s go pikachu but from what I can tell sword and shield are going to be amazing!

  36. I am most excited for the EA sims announcement and Animal crossing for the switch and Pokémon sword and shield, and the dragon quest/builders games for the switch I can’t wait to buy them all

  37. I’m really excited for the new Pokemon Sword and Sheild. I started playing Pokemon on my elder sister’s Game Boy Colour and after playing Pokemon Let’s Go and many other games I’m confident in the breathtaking visuals the Nintendo switch can offer. Seeing one of your favourite games go from pixels to a polished models really brings a tear to the eye!

  38. I’m looking forward to Death Stranding by Kojima Productions more than anything else. It looks like something that we’ve never seen before and the trailer that was released recently gave me confidence that the gameplay will match the atmosphere.

  39. Hoping that the new doom internal gets released this year but thinking it’s gonna be more like 2020. The revamp of this classic was unreal, It was easily one of my favourite games of 2016. Star Wars Jedi: fallen order looks good but who knows when you’ve got EA at the wheel.

  40. I’ve looking forward for Animal crossing
    Nintendo switch. I’ve loved to series and spent many hours playing it on the gamecube.

  41. I’m looking forward to the November 8 release of the Hideo Kogima title Death Stranding. It’s been over two years since its initial announcement.

    I’m most enthusiastic about the Final Fantasy VII remake for PS4. Most of the other titles in this franchise have been rereleased in HD remastered for PS3 and other platforms and FF7 is long overdue.

  42. I’m absolutely psyched for Halo: Infinite by Microsoft! Starting on the first ever xBox Halo was my go to game when I had no one to play with the campaign was always sooo great! This is really important to me because Halo is like my childhood and I’ve been looking forward to the new Halo!

    Overall, I’m also looking forward to playing smash bros Ultimate at the E3 Nintendo booth this year because I never had the chance or money to buy a Nintendo switch. Ahaha
