  1. Google’s announcement of the new Stadia platform (earlier this year) has me really excited about the future of gaming. It has the potential to really change the way we access and play games. While I’m not sure it will succeed, it’s great to have strong competition that will motivate Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo to work harder than ever to keep innovating.

  2. I am most excited about the new Call Of Duty Modern Warfare game coming out on October 25th of 2019. The graphics look amazing and I liked the reveal trailer. I’ve always loved call of duty and modern warfare. My favourite game was call of duty black ops 2, HANDS DOWN, best game I have ever played. I have so much nostalgia behind that game and I know others can say that too. So that’s why I’m excited for call of duty modern warfare. It is important to me because I will be able to relive those nostalgic memories with new ones. The last call of duty game I have played was call of duty black ops 3, and this is when it was fairly new. I have not been able to play call of duty because I don’t own a ps4 or xbox one. I’ve always wanted one but they are just too expensive for a college student. Hopefully this will change in the future. Thank you in advance, and good luck to other candidates.

    The manufacturer(s): Call of Duty, Activision, and Infinity Ward

  3. I am mostly excited for call of duty modern warfare, I don’t know in which panel it will be featured but Infinity ward taking back call of duty to its golden era will be one of the best gaming news I heard for a couple of years since the modern warfare series is what made me live games so much

  4. I am most excited for Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order by EA games and Respawn on the PS4 or XBOX1. We love the series and my son and I would play it together.

  5. Im ready to bust down on pokemon sword and shield. I will protect sobble with my dying breath. Scratch that I will protect all of them. I want to pet them all.

  6. I’m super excited for Pokémon Sword and Shield announced by Nintendo since I’ve been a huge Pokémon fan for a long time and this seems to be one of the greatest Pokémon games to be made. All the new features shown look great and I can’t wait to play it.

  7. Super excited for the upcoming Pokemon games from Nintendo, especially after the Nintendo Direct announcement. An RPG pokemon game on the console is something I’ve been waiting for a long time.

  8. Can’t wait for Death Stranding, because I love a mystery and what we’ve seen so far looks absolutely off the rails, and I can’t wait to see more.

  9. I’m very interested in the new Pokémon sword and shield games from Nintendo! I have played Pokemon games since they started and always enjoy the new ones.

  10. Respawn’s announcement of Star Wars: Fallen Order is definitely what I’m most excited for. I’ve had a hard time loving Star Wars games since KOTOR and the original BF2, and I’m really hoping this can redefine the series in gaming, especially considering it’s a universe with so much possibility and chances to be explored in the next gen of consoles.

  11. I’m most excited for anything playstation related, like the new ps5! but I’m really excited for the final fantasy 7 remake from sqaure enix. since it was announced e3 2015. I have the entire final fantasy games as a collection. and that one is by far one of the most popular one. so to revist it would be amazing. with HD graphics and new battle system.

  12. I am most excited for Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order by EA games and Respawn for the PS4, PC and XBOX1. I’m looking forward to how they plan to expand this ever growing Star Wars universe and how it will incorporate the motion controllers when it comes to combat with the lightsaber. I’m also looking forward to any new games coming to the Nintendo Switch!

  13. Death Stranding by Sony Interactive because there’s no info on The Last Of Us Part II and I want to see if Kojima crosses the line.

  14. I am really excited for Borderlands 3 by Gearbox Software. I had a lot of fun playing the previous games from the borderlands series. I am looking forward to introducing the borderlands world to my friends that have not played the series yet. Love the art style and the comedic tone in the Borderlands series.

  15. Can’t wait for Pokemon Sword & Shield! I’ve always loved Pokémon (even the dumb ones) and can’t wait to see all the new ones! Need to get a Switch first though… lol

  16. The Trailer Introduction from Respawn with EA which I believe will be featured at Xbox’s E3 (even though Im a Sony fan first) of Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order gave me so much excitement. Ive always felt like there was so much more to explore with Order 66 and the story alone not to mention what the game mechanics will surely be , is so exciting!

  17. I’m most excited for the new Star Wars game on Xbox one. That’s the game my son wants to play most of all and we enjoy playing together.

  18. I am most excited about the new Call Of Duty Modern Warfare game coming out on October 25th of 2019. The graphics look amazing and I liked the reveal trailer. I’ve always loved call of duty and modern warfare. My favourite game was call of duty black ops 2, HANDS DOWN, best game I have ever played. I have so much nostalgia behind that game and I know others can say that too. So that’s why I’m excited for call of duty modern warfare. It is important to me because I will be able to relive those nostalgic memories with new ones. The last call of duty game I have played was call of duty black ops 3, and this is when it was fairly new. I have not been able to play call of duty because I don’t own a ps4 or xbox one.

Why is this called Halo infinite and not Halo 6? I can’t wait to find out in this year’s E3 😀
