I am super excited to see more news about cyberpunk 2077!!
I’m extremely excited for Cyberpunk 2077 from CDProjekt Red. Ever since I gave The Other 3: The Wild Hunt a go, I’ve been completely absorbed into their fantastical world! I can’t wait to play another one of their games and to get lost in a whole new world of wonder! Plus, I wanna see if there will be a Cutie cameo!
I’m most excited about fire emblem three houses on the Nintendo switch because fire emblem is a game that has held a deep place in my heart and i am interested to see where they take it, since it is on home consoles for the first time in years!
After party from night school studios looks like an interesting game with a unique story. Point and click games like oxenfree and after party feel like a dying genre witch Is sad since some of the best games from the 90s like day of the tentacle and Sam and max(really all Lucas arts games).
I am 100% most looking forward to more gameplay footage of Doom: Eternal. This is my childhood gaming rebooted with the graphics and gameplay we have all fantasised about; seeing that first teaser I got goosebumps!
When Doom was released in 2016, this was a major deal for the gaming industry and for everyone who grew up playing the 1993 classic. To see that Bethesda to bring back that same feeling then, can’t wait to see what more they’ve done!
I may be speaking too soon because it is not confirmed to be mentioned at E3 this year, but I’ve been waiting for a Bayonetta 3 announcement! Platinum Games teased it at the game awards in 2017 but haven’t spoken too much about it since except for that they’re still working on the game.
There aren’t that many games where the main protagonist is a overconfident woman and I’ve always looked up to her for always being kind and having her heart in the right place. When it comes out I’ll be playing it on the switch on release date!
I’m stuck between Fallen Order, Halo infinite and.. come on Ubisoft announce a new splinter cell!
The Coalition’s announcement of gears of war 5 has me incredibly excited. Especially the detail that it will be released on PC. I am a long time gears of war fan and built a new PC and upgraded to windows 10 just to be able to have a gears of war experience on PC post gears 1 (excluding gears 4 which I did not play on PC).
I have been waiting to have a common system to play on with my friends. My friends and I are all currently living in different cities in different parts of the world but will continue to be brothers because of the bonds we formed in the early days of gears of war. I am looking forward to renewing and strengthening our bond with the latest instalment to the saga!
Brothers to the end. RIP DOM.
I got a burst of nostalgia when infinity ward released they’re trailer for modern warfare !! Already wanting to pre order and I couldn’t be more excited
The announcement that most excited me was Pokémon Sword and Sheild! I own All the games and can’t wait to finish the collection!
I’m most excited about the Square Enix game called Marvel’s Avengers which is on PS4, XBOX and PC
Runner up would be Death Stranding by Kojima
I love games made by these manufactures and these games have potential to be some of the best ever which is exciting!
I’m exited to see Evil Genius 2 finally come to light! That game was a major point in my early gaming life, and I hope it’s as good as the first!
I don’t know too much about gaming, but my husband is excited about Pokémon Sword and Shield by NINTENDO.
I’m excited for anything Sony related. I’ve owned almost every playstation since I was born. My ps4 is one of the first ones that came out and it’s on its last life :,(.
Most hyped for more information about CD Projekt Red’s Cyberpunk 2077 game where they could possibly announce a release date this year. These are the developers of the Witcher 3 which is (in my opinion) one of the greatest games and rpgs of all time!
Looking forward to the new Metroid from Nintendo!
Super excited for some Watch Dogs 3. gameplay this year. I loved the first two, and this one looks like it can live up to the hype. Ubisoft doesn’t always strike gold but im hopeful
Looking forward to news on FF7 and avengers by square enix.
I love the entire final fantasy series, 7 is by far my all time favourite game.
I’m hearing rumours that the next PlayStation should be backwards compatible and that has me absolutely thrilled.
The NBA2k19
Because i was excited to play kawhi leonard and kyle lowry, beside I love to play that team cause its the only Canadian team in NBA. For the Championship RAPTORS #WETHENORTHFOREVER
I’m extremely excited about Halo Infinite on Xbox.
I’m excited by Nintendo’s Pokemon Sword and Shield for the Switch. I’ve been a huge Pokemon fan since the games first came out in North America and love to discover the new areas and Pokemon in each game.
Also, Square Enix’s FFVII remake for the PS4! Super excited to dive back into that universe again! Love the storyline and characters and can’t wait to see what they’ve done to it!
Super excited for Mario maker 2 the Nintendo direct announcement showcased the game well. The endless possibilities of the game plus the nostalgic feel of classic Mario just feels great. I owned the original and cannot wait for Nintendo to release this game!
I’m most interested to hear from Sony on the PS5 and games to release, the game I was most looking forward to was Anthem but it kinda was a bust oh well I really had a blast play God of War was legit thanks to David Jaffe and the crew from Sony’s Santa Monica studios
I’m looking forward to Cyberpunk 2077 for the PC. CD Projekt Red actually puts time and love into their games, unlike most AAA titles these days.
I’m really excited for Mario maker 2, can’t wait to see how the original Mario levels will look compared to the present day versions.
I’m excited to race and compete in a Mario game like never before.
I am hoping that the May 9 Trailer ending of Final Fantasy 7 remake which said ” more to come in June ” means more information regarding Square Enix’s LOOOOONG awaited Final Fantasy 7 Remake !
I can’t wait to check out the Xbox bundles! Been waiting to make the decision between PS4 and Xbox. But super excited to see who does what! !!
The announcement for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare yesterday is getting me very excited! Infinityward has listened, and I think this modern, realistic reboot will be exactly what the market and gamers want!
This E3, I really don’t have a horse in the race, but one game I have a little intrigue in at this E3 has to be Crystal Dynamic’s Avenger game from Square Enix for sure.
The superhero game genre is something I’m a fan of and hasn’t been given a lot of focus historically. I am so glad that DC has done a great job on focusing on that and making great games like with Batman Arkham series with its great story, character, world-building, exploration and gameplay.
Marvel though is a different story with most of their games I’ve played coming from Activision. Which playing those… they’ve always felt they were made for the sake of making them and not really focusing on creating a great game. They had a license to make Marvel games but always felt the passion wasn’t there.
There were some I liked and thought were really fun games, but that it always felt like it was a rare thing to happen. So knowing that license is not in Activision’s hands and the formation of Marvel Games and its focus to find great developers at any publisher to create awesome Marvel games. It puts the idea in my head of the possibility of the quality of these games, which there already is an example of that quality with the recent release of Marvel’s Spider-man.
This is a really long way to answer that Square Enix’s Avengers is a game I really want to see more about at E3. If I am a winner of this contest – which I won’t be let’s be honest – I want the PS4 prize pack.
The gaming who excited me this year is Nintendo Switch because I love the design they are made and I want it!!!
The manufacturer who was announced this is you Mr Martin Renaud. I’m glad to said it because this is the truth.
The title of gaming was Nintendo price pack#1.
I can’t wait for the sqare enix presentation. Rumor says it going to be an avenger game. Square enix has a lot of great games and could do wonder to an avenger themed game.
I am very excited for death stranding by Kojima productions. The gameplay looks amazing!
I’ve been impatiently waiting for Death Stranding by Kojima Productions since day one. The recent announcement and release date got me even more excited!!! I can’t wait to play it on my PS4 Pro!
btw i hope everyone is going to go through a good E3! May all your wish come true!
Hey I’m most excited about the Nintendo announcements. Zelda and Pokémon are always great fun and I’m looking forward to sharing these experiences with my 2 boys.
Thanks for the consideration!
Release or tease of ps5 would be grea remake or new final fantasy would be great too and hopefully assassin creed japan
Want to see more info on FF7 remake. Hope Nintendo announces some new switch consoles.
I think maybe Boarderlands 3 is what I am most interested. See it brought to Xbox one. Honestly mostly exitedd for things I was not expecting for my Nintendo switch, Xbox one and other titles I did not see coming. Always great to be surprised
I am super excited for the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe for the switch because I just got a nintendo switch and am LOVING it
I am so excited about Cyberpunk! Since the reveal trailer I am waiting for this game. I never had any regret buying a game from project red and I am sure they will once again deliver us a great product. Also waiting for star wars! I mean who is not? It’s been a while since we had a real story mode in a star wars game. Each years when e3 is like christmas to me lol! I only talk about that until it happens.
Excited for Last Of Us pt 2
as well as the possible Playstation 5 announcement
