I’m most excited for the new call of duty by activision/infinity ward and the new halo by 343 industries. Call of duty because it’s headed back to what made the game great and halo because it’s been a while since the last entry.
Death Stranding of course! I have to know what’s going on Haha.
I’m most excited for any pokemon sword and shield news as well as that new animal crossing 😀
Nintendo and game freak are the developers/manufactures
This is important because I love pokemon as it is my favourite game franchise and animal crossing because I have never played an animal crossing before.
😀
I am excited for Halo Infinite as I have been a fan since Halo 3. I am also excited for Ghost Recon Breakpoint because I love Ubisoft games and I have played the first Ghost Recon and other games. Ghost Recon was one of my first video games. I would buy it for PC. I am also excited for Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order because the Star Wars is a favorite movie series of mine. I will definitely buy it. I would also buy FIFA and Madden NFL 20 because I love sports and I feel like it would be a big improvement from FIFA and MADDEN NFL 19. I’m excited for Doom Eternal because it was my first ever video game. It love the game series to death. I have played almost every Doom game. I will definitely buy Watch Dogs Ledgon as I said before, I love Ubisoft games. I loved Watch Dogs 1 and 2 and hope Watch Dogs Legion would be as good. I am also very excited for Borderlands 3 and Dying Light. For Borderlands 3, I love the Borderland series. I have played all the games for countless hours. As for Dying Light 2, I liked Dying Light. I loved the graphics, not so much the story. But I have been waiting for Dying Light 2 for a long time. I would like to win the PS4 if I could. Thank you for reading this.
I am excited for the announcement of the new Avengers game from Square Enix. I would like see how it fares when compared previously released Marvel Games.
Hopefully we will get a release date for final fantasy 7.
next call of duty
I’m excited to hear news about release dates for cyberpunk 2077 & ghost of tsushima. Being from London I’m also super excited to see footage of Watchdogs 3.
I’m super excited about Animal Crossing for the Switch! I’m also super excited to find out what is on the horizon for Xbox One, PS4, and switch. Can’t wait!!

I am most excited for the E3 coverage of Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order because I love all Star Wars games and I hear this one might have RTX turned on, so the graphics are going to be next level amazing.
Luigi’s Mansion 3 from Nintendo has me most excited because I loved playing Dark Moon. Hoping for co-op so I can play with my son and also hoping for a single large mansion for a more open world exploring gameplay.
Just watched the EA Play press conference. Respawn’s Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order looks awesome. Can’t wait to play a new single player Star Wars game!
I am most excited for Death Stranding. Other than the interesting, twisted world, it’s also from my all time favorite game creator, Hideo Kojima . It’s also promising and exciting to see that the game is coming up a new acting genre. Death Stranding game is also from publisher/manufacturer Sony, known for delivering award winning story based titles.
Honestly, the game I’m looking forward to is Borderlands 3. It’s one of those games where playing with friends is a huge blast. So excited to get this game when it comes out.
I’m looking forward to Cyberpunk 2077 by CD Projekt. The previews look exciting and it appeals to me.
I am excited for Watch Dogs Legion! I have played the previous 2 release and am excited to see what this new one can provide! Excited for all the games that are coming out!
I’m excited with Microsoft Studios “Halo Infinite”. I can’t wait since the previous release was “Halo 5: Guardians” which came out about four years ago. It has been a long time for this Halo fan.
EA and Respawn Entertainment’s Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. I’ve been waiting for a new single player Star Wars game for a long time and the cancellation of 1313 broke my heart. I really hope this is as good as it looks and brings me back to the glory days of playing Jedi Knight 2: Jedi Outcast.
I am excited about Final Fantasy 7 remake by Square Enix.
The original game pushed the boundaries of technology at the time it was made. 4 discs on the playstation to get the job done but what was exceptional waa the story. It waa a tough relentless game with an amaz6story that kept you you enthralled. After watching the latest trailer on the remake it is clear that we mow have the best visuals and technology to blend with the story. This is by far the best remake of a game and will ele6the standard of remakes.
I’m hype for Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield by Game Freak and Nintendo. I’ve been a pokemon fanboy since I was 4 years old. This game really looks like it’s gonna take the franchise to the next level. I can’t wait to receive more details next Monday during Nintendo’s conference!!
I am excited to hear more about Final Fantasy 7 remake at Squares E3 conference! Sony made the first announcement about it but I can’t wait to hear more! Final Fantasy 7 shaped the gaming world and i can’t wait to see what its like with the remake!
I heard rumours of ice wind dale coming to console. The game is very nostalgic to me, it is similar to other games but you get to customize your whole party rather then finding teammates. I wouldn’t mind a reboot or sequel (although I might get let down with too much change) but I’d love to play the original it through again on a smoother system.
EA Respawn, Apex Legends. Apex legends is the best battle royal ever on Xbox one. It’s a huge step for Respawn who have based the game off the under appreciated Titanfall. This is a huge boost for them and the Titanfall community. I feel Apex Legend has so much more to offer and it’s all being announced at e3, this year.
I’m excited to to see the square enix announcement of the avengers game. I’ve been a comic book fan my entire life and it’s really great to see a console game with marvel superheroes again
EA and Respawn Entertainment’s Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order gameplay footage. I’ve been waiting for a new great Star Wars single player experience, and I’m super excited for this game!
I’m super excited to see what Ubisoft has to say about watch dogs 3 or watch dogs legion because I am a fan of the whole watch dogs series!!
I’m excited about Jedi Fallen order by Respawn and EA. It’s going to be amazing, Star Wars is a piece of my childhood I get to relive through awesome games like I know this one will be.
Looking forward for new vr titles.
I’m looking forward to see what’s game coming on playstation 4 next years. I hope there are a new game like Detroit Become Human. I love that kind of game.
I am most excited for the new Microsoft XBOX (2?) console and for games I’m most excited for Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order from Respawn

I’m very excited about EA Vancouver’ s release of FIFA 20 since I love soccer and I’ve enjoyed the previous releases. I’m hyped for soccer since this is the start of the 2019 Women’s World Cup.
As an old school gamer, I’m excited about the SEGA mini console that was recently announced. I have 2 young children and these older games are perfect to bring them into gaming, without having to worry about violent content. Plus, any nostalgia of gaming past is right up my alley.
I’m super excited about Nintendo’s release of new Pokemon games for their Switch in November 2019, Pokemon Sword & Shield. My whole family is going to love playing these!

I’m very excited about Nintendo’s Mario kart tour beta announcement in May. This title will be released shortly on the public. I vividly recall spending so much time playing Mario kart and super Mario kart. I can’t wait for a new modern release in this series. Ohh the hours I will play!
Item: Game
Manufacturer: Nintendo
Title: Mario Kart Tour
Importance to me: Nostalgia, love the Mario kart series!

I’m very looking forward to monster hunter world: iceborne. Have been a monster hunter fan for over 10 years. With the new generation graphics and 60fps gameplay, hunting experience is very satisfying
I am really excited for future of next gen gaming, with AMD being at E3, I want to learn more about their 7nm Navi custom GPU for the next gen consoles. The possibilities of having ray tracing on a home console or 60 FPS on native 4K just sounds delicious. I really want to see a surprise appearance of Lisa Su at the Microsoft press conference and give as a sneak peek at the power of this new technology for the next Xbox. Cant wait for E3 2019 and the future of gaming.
I can’t wait for the Avengers game coming being produced by Square Enix and Marvel Entertainment. Love the movies and games prior so this is definitely getting me excited.
THQ Nordic recently announced the game SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom – Rehydrated. I used to play the original on GameCube in highschool and loved it. I have great memories of this game and I’m super excited it’s being ‘rehydrated’ !
I’m excited for Project Z by Bandai Namco on the ps4 because I am a big fan of the Dragon ball universe. I am excited for the gameplay and the graphics are impressive (in my opinion) hopefully the story is just as good.
I am very excited for The Last of Us 2, a ps4 exclusive by Naughty Dog studios just because of the nostalgia of playing what I consider is the best ps4 exclusive. Another thing is I’m looking forward to new updates from the console, pc and, mobile companies that are developing new techs that will advance the gaming experience.
As a long time Halo fan, I’m super stoked to hear about Halo Infinite!! Im also excited to see if Nintendo reveals a new dlc character in Smash Ultimate!
