  1. The new Dragon Age, by Bioware, for sure!! Can’t wait!!! The Dragon age series have been my favourite since PS3 and the teaser got me very excited!!!

  2. Really excited to know more about Star Wars Jedi fallen order by Eletronic Arts. Always loved Star Wars and I am very excited to finally have a new single player storytelling focused game.

  3. I am insanely excited for the teased avengers game by SquareEnix because I was a big fan of the Spider-Man on ps4 and I really love marvel superheroes so being able to play with not only Spider-Man but all the other fantastic heroes from the Marvel Cinematic Universe will be awesome! I also really love the company and how they make their wonderful story mode games like Kingdom Hearts 3 which I recently just finished. This is super important to me so wouldn’t always be playing online games with my friends, this could give me some alone time by appearing offline on my ps4 and hopping on to this game. Thank you to SquareEnix and their wonderful games and I wish they keep coming with even better games.

  4. I’m super excited for Call Of Duty Modern Warfare! I’ve been a real big Call of Duty fan since the original Modern Warfare came out for the ps3. And I’m glade Activision is putting in good work to make this one of the most anticipated Call of Duty releases to date!

  5. I am very excited for Death Standing by Kojima Productions. It’s been a while since the last Hideo Kojima game rocked our socks off and this one looks like it will do just that with it’s concept, mystery and mechanics. Not to mention an all star cast, incl. Sam Reedus, Mads Mikkelsen, with Guillermo del Toro also featured. I’m so happy I could cry.

  6. This will be short.

    The release date of…

    Cyberpunk 2077 by CD Project Red.

    CD Project capital group is the most forward thinking and consumer friendly developer/publisher on the market.

    They’re revolutionizing the video game industry one step at a time.

  7. E3 2019 has me most excited for the reveal of Firefly Studio’s new title Stronghold Next (they’ll be revealing the title – Next is their codename/placeholder – as well as gameplay at E3). I’ve spent countless hours playing their Stronghold Crusader game, they have many more Stronghold games and I am looking forward to seeing and playing their new game.

  8. Hey, I’d love to win the playstation 4. My brother in law has a ps3 and it’s so fun to play on but I don’t have a console at home. And it’s great as you can watch dvds on it too aside from playing the awesome video games.

  9. I’m really looking forward to Nintendo’s Pokemon Sword and Shield. I’ve put thousands of hours into the series and fully expect these ones to add to that.

  11. I’m extremely excited for Atlus’s announcement of Persona 5: The Royal! Persona 5 has quickly become one of my favourite games ever due to its gameplay mechanics and great cast of characters.

I’m very excited as I love this game series from Frozenbyte/Modus Games. I’ve been hooked since the first game.

  19. I’m really excited for more news about the new Marvem Ultimate Alliance game from Team Ninja and published by Nintendo! I’m currently trudging my way through grad school and struggling with burnout, but Marvel and Nintendo have always been a rock that helped me get through it. I can’t WAIT to blast some baddies as Dr. Strange!

  20. The game I’m most excited about is Link’s Awakening by Nintendo. The remake looks amazing and I can’t wait to play this classic game on the Switch. The updated visuals will bring this game to even greater heights than ever before.

  21. So stoked for Pokémon Sword and Shield, Nintendo put out an amazing video. Not only did they hype me up for the release in November, but also reminded me of how far the franchise has truly evolved. I’m saving up to get a switch for when it comes out but I just can’t wait to experience the world, I have played all the games up to this point and can’t wait for more.

  22. Looking forward to Nintendo’s plans with the Switch software. Pokémon Sword and Shield look great, but I’m also holding out for Animal Crossing news.

  23. I am sooo exited for pokemon sword and sheild from Nintendo. Ive been waiting for the next Pokémon game for a long time and think it will blow me away.

  24. Personally I’m extremely excited for the release of Sea of Solitude by Jo-Mei Games. Their E3 trailers had me stunned at the sheer beauty of SoS’s art style. Everything from the water to the buildings and that massive bird thing amazed me! I can’t wait to get my hands on this masterpiece in the making for PC. If you guys haven’t seen the trailers yet honestly give them a watch, I’m sure that this will be a game that everyone will be able to enjoy.

  25. I am very excited for Pokemon Sword and Shield! The gameplay looks fantastic and it looks like it will play fantastic on the switch!!

  27. I am really looking forwards to playing Call of Duty Black Ops 4 and Elder Scrolls Online with my family and friends. It would be an amazing gift to myself and my wife. She is looking forwards to playing the Crash Banditcoot remake on the PS4.

  28. I’m really excited for pokemon sword and shield! The way the gameplay looks like, it is clearly how all the pokemon games should have been!

  32. Can’t wait for the next Zelda game by Nintendo! BotW got me hooked good i’d say it was even better than Ocarina of Time…

  33. A gaming announcement that has hyped me up the most this year was the announcement that halo reach would be added to the Master chief collection in 60 FPS BABY.

  34. Really excited to see what the retail stores are doing to offer customers to compete with these digital game subscription services. I know this will increase my already expensive internet even when i’m not using a game subscription service. I really like going to the store to get my game and the excitement and feeling of unwrapping the shrink wrap its a special experience. I really hope all this digital game subscription services doesn’t impact the retail experience of buying a game.

  35. The game that’s got me most excited is Pokemon sword and shield by Gamefreak for the Nintendo switch.

    Growing up it was the only gaming series I would itch to play before doing anything else. I plan on doing the same once I’ve purchased Pokemon shield by waking up and spending hours in my room. CANT WAIT!

  36. I’m excited to learn when The Last Of Us II will come out since the original was one of the greatest games ever.

  37. Really excited about the new Pokemon Sword and Shield game. Have been playing pokemon on Nintendo systems for as long as I can remember.

  38. I’m looking forward to Borderlands 3 by Gearbox Software. Borderlands 2 was one of my favourite games to play with my friends. I’m excited to see how they expand on the lore of the games and to see what new features they add. Also, the cross-play feature will make it even easier to play with my friends.

  39. I’m most excited for Death Stranding on PS4. I was upset about the cancellation of Silent Hills, but this looks like an excellent alternative from Hideo Kojima. I can’t wait to play it!
