Hello Kitty Tetris. Yes, Hello Kitty Tetris. Today, they shut down my favourite version of Tetris, Tetris Friends, and there are rumors that Hello Kitty Tetris will replace it, but no more details will be given except that it launches at E3.
Maybe Nintendo’s Animal Crossing on the Nintendo Sitch. Smile
I like all of them, no specific favourites. I hope is in Canada because I want to win and don’t need to pay the fee if it’s FREE.
The Call of Duty Modern Warfare reboot, made by Infinity Ward and published by Activision, has me the most excited!! Call of Duty Modern Warfare (COD4) was the first game I got for my PS3 and it’s still my favourite Call of Duty game. Can’t wait!
I’m very exited and looking forward to the Nintendo Switch console. The whole Mario collection looks amazing and I can’t wait to try them out, especially the Super Mario Party!
I’m really excited about Cyberpunk 2077 by CDPR. The Witcher 3 is probably one of my most favourite games ever, so a shooter with cyberpunk elements with similar RPG elements? I’m sold already. The trailer and gameplay they showed already looks amazing I can’t wait!
I have to go with Wolfenstein: Youngblood developed by MachineGames because I remember the first Wolfenstein game I played as a child and i thought back then it was the most amazing game ever but looking back on the way it was and what it is today is astonishing! things have changed so much!
Definitely excited for The Last of Us 2! The previous game was heart wrenching in terms of storytelling coupled with intense gameplay. Can’t wait to see how Naughty Dog will exceed my expectations this time!
Words cannot express how excited I am for Pokemon Sword and Shield by Gamefreak! I remember my parents saving me money to get me my first gameboy and how being thrown into this new world made my young imagination run wild. Now we have come full circle where I now get to share these games with my children and get to experience this whole new world of fantastic creatures together on the Nintendo Switch. Could not be more excited!
I’m most excited about the game Borderlands 3 by Gearbox. I really love the series and I’m looking forward to the new multiplayer game style.
Deep Silver announcing there will be a playable version of Shenmue 3 to the press at E3 2019! I’m not the press but I’m still very excited as they’ve kept quite secretive about this game. It’s so important to me because I remember being 13 years old and being captivated by Shenmue 2 on the original Xbox! Such a beautiful and engulfing game. I bought it from the sale rack and it’s been to this day the best bang for my buck I’ve ever gotten from a game! So excited for the third instalment!
I’m beyond excited for Halo Infinite! The game that shaped my gaming experience!
It’s going to be on an Xbox console. It’s going to bring back Xbox into my life, the countless hours playing slayer and every other game mode, relentless Legendary campaign sprees with the best story I’ve experienced.
The game will be open world and that’s a fascinating thought… excited to see what it will bring to the series. How they will integrate the same level of epic story and still keep it linear? I have no idea but I hope the series can return to its roots and shock the gaming community
I am excited for Activision’s Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled (game). I loved playing the original Crash Bandicoot as a child and 20 years later to have a new spin on the same character is definitely something to look forward to. My husband never played any of the original games so I am excited to share this new crash bandicoot experience with him as well!
I’m excited about the future PlayStation console. Guaranteed backwards compatibility and the impressive hardware specs make me want to buy it as soon as it releases to the public.
My son is most excited for NHL 19!
Would like the new Call of Duty
I guess I am very excited for Nintendo’s announcement of the Super Mario Maker 2 game for Nintendo Switch. It is a game and I will play it with my son or friends.
Hello and thanks for this contest.
I’m hyped from all things nintendo and the switch and especially Luigi’s mansion 3 and zelda links awakening !!
Super Mario 2 for Nintendo Switch is what has me super excited! Looking forward to playing with all of my nieces and nephews!
Excited to see what’s new from Rocksteady this year hopefully announced at the Microsoft conference. Seems like they’ve been working on it for quite a while!
I am very excited for Nintendo’s announcement of the Super Mario Maker 2 game for Nintendo Switch. I’ve spent many hours with my daughter playing Super Mario Maker 1. Great father daughter time for Father’s Day!
I like the unofficial announcements concerning the PS5 capabilities and specs. Looking to get my hands on that console when it comes out… rumor is Nov 2020.
As a student in university I had to sell some of my consoles. Prior to the recent news of games such as Modern Warfare and Pokémon Sword and Shield— I felt like I had to turn my couch gaming into actual life “games” such as calisthenics. Seeing all this overwhelming news makes me want to be a teenager again. That being said, as of now I am extremely excited for E3. I really hope to get more updates on Modern Warfare. It’s been about 8 years since I played Modern Warfare 3 right before I started high school. and how time flies, wow. I hope the E3 news had made everybody feel the same feeling I felt. Another note, the trailer on the Playstation Youtube channel makes me want to revisit the fantastic world that Playstation brought in my life.
Super excited for the new Pokémon game for switch
I am really hoping we get some info on Bethesda’s new elder scrolls game. I love those games so much, Skyrim and oblivion just make me so happy to play through and I still actively play ESO. I normally hate to preorder but I feel like I will for this game. Skyrim is what first got me into writing fantasy as before I just saw it mostly as a Tolkien thing. Elder scrolls showed me a new path that fantasy can go down, and I’m very thankful for that.
I can hardly wait to get Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled, a kart racing game developed by Beenox and published by Activision. I will buy the Xbox One version so I can race my
8 year old grandson who loves everything with wheels attached. The game looks suitable for kids.
Really hoping to win the PS4 bundle! Been wanting that for years! And only Best Buy offers the best deals
Really excited to know more about Luigi’s Mansion and Pokemon Sword / Shield from Nintendo at the next E3.
As for the package, I would love to win the Gaming PC package since I just built a custom gaming PC myself and I am missing some devices to go with my new setup.
I am extremely excited for any Animal Crossing content coming out from Nintendo Switch, as well as any other rumours about Mario Kart 9! I’ve grown up with Mario Kart since I was about six or seven years old, and to this day playing brings me so much fun and joy.
I am so excited for animal crossing for the switch. Since I was a kid, I’ve been obsessed with Nintendo- and most specifically Animal Crossing. It’s a game series that I’ve grown up with, since playing it on the GameCube, and now progressing from New Leaf to the new switch title. It’s the type of game that you can pick up whenever you’re feeling down, which will lift your spirits. Talking to the kind neighbours in the game, performing errands, catching fish, designing a home- it’s that simple slice of life kind of game that helps me relax and unwind. I can’t wait to play it!
I’m most excited for the for honor update and the call of duty reveal as I am a hugej fan of both of these games, and I have played both of these games on my bad desktop computer since I was 13
I’m most excited for the new Pokémon games from Nintendo for the switch. I’ve been playing these games my whole life and I’m excited to finally be able to play it on the tv.
I am excited about The Pokemon Company, and developer Game Freak bringing out Pokemon Sword and Shield for the Nintendo Switch.
My grandson is a big Pokemon fan and getting him this game for his birthday would make me the best Grandma ever.
with pc world listing the Astro A40 Gaming Headset as the best it’s what I need to be able to disappear into my gameworld even when the damn neighbot’s band is playing so bad almost every other headset can’t beat their beat!
My grandson is a fan of The call of duty series nice to add to his collection.
I’m excited for the Avengers !!!!! Game at e3 can’t wait !!!! I hope it’s really good. And it’s like the Spiderman game the story line and co op online to create your guy should be fun also I think it will be two totally different gameplays ! I also hope they show pro evolution soccer 2020 !
I’m most excited for the for honor update and the call of duty reveal as I am a huge fan of both of these games, and I have played both of these games on my bad desktop computer since I was 13
Death Stranding parce que je suis fana des MGS produit par Hideo Kojima et enfin nous aurons un style de jeu différent que tout ce que nous avons vu jusqu’à maintenant.
I’m pumped for Nintendo’s upcoming lineup! Mario maker 2, Animal Crossing and Metroid 4, not to mention the amazing switch library already out!
I’m really excited to see what’s in store for PS4 and the Nintendo switch to see if there are anymore announcements about Pokemon sword and shield, assassin’s Creed, and if Bethesda has anything coming up.
I’m excited about Pokemon Sword announced by Nintendo for Nintendo Switch. Pokemon has been a childhood game and it brings back a lot of memories. Childhood games don’t have to stay as childhood memories.
Kingdom Hearts 3 for the PlayStation. I’ve been playing this series since it first came out, I love a good replay of too!
If the new avengers is anything like the Spider-Man game that’s gonna be great. If not definitely Cyberpunk 77
Best Buy is the best place to buy video games.
Pokémon Sword and Shield is a great upcoming role-playing video game developed by Game Freak and published by The Pokémon Company and Nintendo for the Nintendo Switch. My son and I love playing games together and he is obsessed with Pokémon so we are both over the moon excited for this game to come out!
❤️
Nintendo’s Animal Crossing on the Nintendo Switch. It sounds like fun, I can’t wait to play it with my family!
Final fantasy 7 remake
Excited about the PS4 package, it would make a lovely present for my daughters. Wow.
I’m excited about Animal Crossing for selfish reasons, keeps the kids and grandkids amused for hours.
I’m excited for Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3! Hoping we get more characters announced during E3 and possibly some Nintendo guests or costumes content.
I was hoping for a Marvel game to play on the Nintendo Switch, and it was a huge surprise when the game was announced and not just that it’s coming to the Switch, it’s exclusive! I just know that Nintendo are willing to make sure that the quality of the gameplay will be clean and fun like their big titles.
I am very much looking forward to a possible official announcement at E3 from Nintendo concerning the arrival of Detective Pikachu for the Nintendo Switch. After watching the movie and researching across the web engadget.com posted Nintendo’s tweet regarding Detective Pikachu and the Nintendo Switch. Both the console and the game itself are truly important to me as I immersed myself in Pokémon growing up. From playing on my game boy to having the chance to play Pokémon for the Switch, I just can’t wait.
