I’m really excited for square enix’s Marvel Avengers game . I’m curious if they’re going to build on the tried and tested Batman Arkham structure or if they will try and link the game to the movies somehow. I hope they create a whole new storyline and build on the Batman Arkham game structure, similar to what spider-man did. Thats my comment, piiiiiiick meeeeeeee✌
Nintendo Pokemon direct for Pokémon Sword and Shield releasing Nov 15th. Have been a fan since I was young, can’t wait to play it on my switch!
Definitely looking forward for more announcements from Microsoft about the Xbox 2, and also the progress on streaming and backwards compatibility for their new Xbox app.
I’m most excited about the Halo Infinite game announcement by Microsoft.
Halo was he first game I every played on my x-box and I’ve played every game since. I’m so excited to play the next game in the series, it’s like visiting an old friend that will never do me wrong. Always brings great gameplay and memories

The legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening from Nintendo is what I’m most excited for. It’s one of my all time favorite Zelda games. I can’t wait to play the new updated version.
Nintendo has exciting stuff coming up, Link’s Awakening, Core Pokémon RPG, all stuff my family is going to adore

I am so excited for Borderlands 3 to come out announced by Gearbox, this was one of my first games to play and absolutely fell in love with it and still play the first and second to this day on PC and Xbox. I can’t get enough of it and I’m so happy they’re making a third!

I’m excited for the release of The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening from Nintendo. I love the action and adventure the original game had, and I’m sure this upcoming game will not disappoint.
I am most excited to hear more about Cyberpunk 2077 from CD Projekt Red, and Respawn’s Jedi Fallen Order. Both games look like excellent story-focused single player campaigns.

Unlike many comments Im seeing I actually enjoyed the 2 Watchdogs games and am excited for the 3rd!
Really looking forward to all Nintendo announcements but especially Pokemon Shield. Hopefully there will be next gen consoles and cloud gaming service offerings.
Star Wars Jedi fallen order for sure.
I am personally most excited for Halo Infinite at E3 that Microsoft will showcase this year. The Halo series holds a special place in my heart as it was the game that sparked my love for gaming. I remember playing the first Halo on the first Xbox that was super bulky with my brothers that created many great memories for me. That is the reason why I am super pumped for the showcasing of Halo Infinite that will happen at E3 this 2019.
I am eagerly anticipating the new Call of Duty:Modern Warfare (Infinity Ward) for my PS4 Pro! Thrilled that it seems to be a sort of reboot back to its roots AND really excited about the newly revealed “cross-play” functionality, specifically the fact that it will be input based (no advantage for you PC players, LOL!)…
Would have to by Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 by Square Enix. I was such a fan of the first 2 and put in many hours completing both of them.
I am personally, super excited for Halo Infinite the game that Microsoft will be showcasing at E3 this year. This game/series holds a special place in my heart, it was the first game I ever played. It sparked a love of gaming for me that has led to many happy memories as I also played it with my older brothers growing up. That is why I am super pumped for Halo Infinite by Microsoft
Pokémon sword and shield by Nintendo, I’m really excited for the new play style and open world concept!
Any of Microsofts announcements
What Nintendo has (or not) in store for Animal Crossing. The lack of news is creating so much hype on its own.
I’m extremely excited for the new Luigi’s Mansion by Nintendo. It’s awesome to see this series on a new console, it’s been way too long since we’ve had a new one.
Gears 5, will be definitely preording that, MS will do alot right for e3 and the people watching. Also the new Xbox is getting me really excited hehe.
So I’m actually a little torn. I bought my girlfriend a Nintendo switch for her birthday a couple days ago and I’d really like to have one so we can game together but I’m so excited for the sinking city that I think I’d have to go with the Xbox bundle just so we can both play it and I’m sure it would get me some extra brownie points if I got her an Xbox too haha also I love anything psychological thriller and the sinking city has me extremely excited just like the evil within did when it originally came out.
I’m most excited for Borderlands 3 this year as it’s an excellent franchise with great developers that fills the looter shooter hole in my heart.
The announcement of Pokemon Sword and Shield is what I’m looking forward to. Pokemon is a GREAT game for all ages. Nintendo and Gamefreak are doing an amazing job, the game looks SPECTACULAR!
Hi there. Definitely Nintendo & Link’s Awakening…Zelda games are always such a perfect combination of story and playability…a new version in a system you can drop in you backpack? Count me in…I really want to share this type of more patient gaming with my kid as well and get them hooked on the payoff of exploration, not just button mashing.
excited about Pokeman Sword
I’m most excited to see Square Enix share more details and footage of Final Fantasy VII Remake at E3. I was too young to experience the original release and am now too spoiled by technology to enjoy the dated graphics and mechanics. The Remake might be my best chance to finally experience Cloud’s story.
I’m most excited for Final Fantasy 16 by Square Enix. I have been playing the games since I was 7, and have put in hundreds of hours playing Final Fantasy 15. I can’t believe how the graphics have improved over the years, and can’t wait to see what they do next.
