The announcement I am most excited about is the game Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, by Respawn Entertainment. I’m a fan of Star Wars and a single player games set in between episode 3 and 4 has so much potential to be amazing and the trailer so far has looked great.
My most anticipated announcement would have to be Last of us 2 by Naughty Dog for PlayStation. The first game is one of my all time favorites and I can’t wait to see what amazing work they have done on the sequel. Naughty dog has yet to disappoint I will be interested to see if it comes out on this gen or the soon to be released PS5!
Finally the end of an era and plenty of game should land on our shelves.
Fallen Order by EA Games and Respawn is among the latest announcements. Used to be a big fan of star wars games and it’s been a long time we haven’t see anything drop dropping.
Will still keep a eyes on Death stranding and the last of us 2 .
I am definitely excited for the Nintendo conference; they have a lot of good games coming out this year and hoping they can reveal some more details. Hoping for some Luigi’s Mansion updates! And hopefully they can finally announce or release the SNES virtual console for the switch already.
Cyberpunk 2077 release date and new trailer. Developed by CD Projekt Red. Best game shown at E3 2018!
I’m excited for all Nintendo announcements don’t care what it is I’m just so hyped
Looking forward forthe new Jedi: Fallen Order! Hope to win the contest too !
Looking forward to seeing another announcement from Sony’s Naughty Dog for Last of Us Part 2. It’s my favourite game of all time. Crossing my fingers for a release date!
Crash team racing nitro fuel by activision this game i remembre could play it for hours and suddenly rage quit…forged my patience
My son and I love playing pokemon on the switch so we’re always looking for news about that!
I’m really looking forward to Mario Maker 2 on switch so my son and I can create and play levels together!
Excited for the new Smash character announcement.
I am super excited for any new information on Naughty Dog’s: The Last of Us Part II. The Last of Us was an amazing game that really changed my life in the way its story was told, how the action played out, and how much of a polished game it was. When I saw the gameplay of part II last year I was blown away by how much they have improved from the game I already loved.
I’m most excited to get more information about The Last of Us from Sony and Naughty Dog. I bought my PS4 specifically to play the first game and it had me do enthralled in the storyline. Honestly when they showed the trailer I was so happy that I’ll be playing as someone who is a girl and also loves girls, happy pride month y’all.
I’m looking forward to Star Wars: Jedi and hopefully a new Spiderman game
Death Stranding because I’m a big Kojima fan!
Got to agree with corey vincent Jedi: Fallen order looks sick. Cant wait for it when it cones out on xbox
I am looking forward to the new “Halo Infinite”; – hopefully it will rock!
DOOM Eternal by id software/Bethesda. I’m excited for DOOM Eternal on PS4. Ive been a DOOM fan since it’s first release in the early 90’s on PC. They’re different than the standard FPS games nowadays. They’ve always kept them fun and fast. DOOM 3 wasn’t as fast but still super fun. DOOM is developed by id software and published by Bethesda. id software has made some great games over the years.
Pokemon Sword and Shield on the Nintendo Switch has me most excited. I’ve been following the pokemon series since having a gameboy color and playing pokemon silver on it. Growing up with the tv series and the games excites me for what they can bring to the table via the Nintendo Switch. It has the potential to be a new restart of the pokemon series in 2019.
I am really excited for super smash bros ultimate, because i was a fan of smash bros since i was a kid with my Wii or at friends’ house on game cube.
Looking forward to buying a new game card, Nividia’s RTX 2080 Ti. Need that level of graphics hardware to push the resolution of my new 4K panel.
Cyberpunk 2077!! Been a fan of CD Projekt Red since their Witcher Series, and can’t wait to see what they have planned for their new project. Also a sci-fi and Blade Runner fan, so can’t wait to see more game play and story details of Cyberpunk 2077!
I’m most excited to watch a new trailer for the game Cyberpunk 2077 developed by CD Projekt Red because it blew me away along with the media and journalists at E3 2018 press conference. I’m really hoping they announce a release date at E3 2019.
Cyberpunk 2077 for the Xbox! I’ve been waiting on this game for awhile
Most excited to finally seeing what the Avengers project is all about!
I can’t wait for Google to release the Stadia gaming service. I’m really not sure what to expect! This is important to me because Stadia has a design team at our local Google office! I’m hoping to apply for a job as a UX designer with the Stadia team!
I’m most excited about the Borderlands 3 announcement. Been a long time coming!
Nintendo direct!
The announcement I am most excited about in 2019 is the game Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, by Respawn Entertainment. I’m a fan of Star Wars and a single player games set in between episode 3 and 4 has so much potential to be amazing and the trailer so far has looked great.
I’m Super excited for Crash Team Racing Nitro Fueled announced by Activision. This will bring me hours of fun and will remind me of my childhood while I can still play with my Niece and Nephew. I used to be a big gamer with my PSX, PS2, PS3, PS4, and then I got so busy with work that i’ve been unable to dedicate time to some of these massive games. I went and got a Switch and it’s exactly what I needed. Games that are tons of fun that I can pick up and play where I left off without having to figure out how to play all over again.
Borderlands 3! Been playing this series with family and friends since the first. Can’t wait to continue the bonding!
Call Of Duty Black Ops 2 Remastered Was Not Announced !!!! who would like to see him again on ps4 or xbox in the coming years. WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR !!!
Most excited for Watch Dogs Legion from Ubisoft! Ive always been a fan of open world games from Ubisoft, and seeing what theyve done with Watch Dogs 1 and Watch dogs 2, I know WD 3 is gonna be CRAZY!
Waiting to see last of us 2 at the E3!!!!!!
Cyberpunk 2077, the new Xbox!! Camelot Unchained!! I hope these have some firm dates on when they are coming out. Most of all looking forward to the pre-order E3 deals from Best Buy!!
I am most excited for Pokemon Sword for the Nintendo Switch. Pokemon has been something with me since I was 5 and watching the game evolve and grow makes me super excited. After watching the gameplay video, the game looks so beautiful and I can’t wait to explore the new region.
I’m very excited about the Nintendo Switch Crash Team Racing game. Supposed to be better than Mario Kart which I absolutely love. It’s so fun to play with my kids and friends.
Excited about Super Mario Switch, my husband and I can play it together while our new baby sleeps!
I am looking forward to the new handheld called the Playdate by Panic. The yellow colour and monochrome design has a certain old-school charm which Gameboy fans like myself cannot resist. Also the game called Crankin’s Time Travel Adventure looks to be delightfully fun with its crank control.
Super Mario maker 1 was a blast. Hoping to hear more about super Mario maker 2 and seeing more gameplay if possible. Also would be great to see the new PlayStation!
Most excited for Gears5, announced at the Microsoft Media Briefing. had so much fun over the years playing this game going back to 2006
I would love to kick my boyfriend’s butt in Super Smash Bros!
Looking forward to playing link’s awakening. Just love all Zelda games.
Pokémon Sword and Shield from Nintendo is what I’m really looking forward to, since it’s the first main line Pokémon game on the Nintendo Switch, and has great potential to be a beautiful and complex entry in the series.
I’m looking forward to Halo Infinite, the amazing graphics and fun play.
I’m more than excited to see more of « The Last of Us 2 » by Naughty Dog !
Can’t wait for the new Nintendo Pokémon sword and shield. Always fun games to play on the go with the switch. (Though I’m hoping for that PS4 pack since I have the switch stuff already).
I can’t wait for Call of Duty Modern Warfare to come out!!! The MW series are the best COD games ever! I literally can’t explain how excited I am for MW!!
Very excited about the new Jedi: Fallen Order by EA Games and Respawn. Looking forward to the way Respawn makes their movement in games and how that will be influenced by being a Jedi. Will love to see what they accomplish with it!
