Halo Infinite from 434 industries! I have so many good memories playing split screen with my friends when we were younger playing on the xbox 360. Now that I’m more gaming on PC, i’m happy to learn that it will be available on PC so i can play online with friends like the old time!
The Mortal Kombat 11 Kombat Pack 1 trailer just got me really excited but that being said I’m really excited for Microsoft’s Gears of War 5.
Halo infinite by 343 I’m really excited to see what happens next in the franchises
I love all things Mario related so I’m super excited about Nintendo’s announcement of the Super Mario Maker 2 game for Nintendo Switch. I loved the first one but after hearing about all the amazing changes they’ve made I can’t wait for the second one!!
The gaming announcement has me most excited in 2019 was for the PlayStation 4-exclusive game “Death Standing”. In the most recent trailer, Kojima Productions revealed the release date of Nov 8, 2019. This game is so important for me as I’m a fan of Hideo Kojima’s Metal Gear Solid Games.
I’m most excited for Pokémon Sword & Shield!
The game I’m most excited for is Persona 5 Royale.
I really enjoyed playing Persona 5 and getting to know each character.
Absolute best game ever!
Definitely gonna be looking forward to seeing Gears 5, Borderlands 3 and Call Of Duty Modern Warfare, all 3 of those games have me interested and honestly have me feeling like a kid again, getting excited for E3!
Im super excited for the reveal of ANIMAL CROSSING SWITCH!!!!
I’m really happy of the Super Mario Maker 2 announcement by Nintendo! I’ve never been that excited for an upcoming game, it is the first time ever that I preorder a game, and I’m counting the days! I follow a lot of twitch streamers who play « Kaizo level » on SMM1 and I find it really amazing! All the creativity that comes out from level creators mesmerize me, it is incredible!
Defenetively the stadia from google. I want to see what this will bring to the gaming world and is as good as they say it will be.
After a few disappointing call of duty games. I am looking forward to the next instalment, Call of Duty Modern Warfare.
The Resident Evil 2 remake was the most exciting thing for me this year. I was able to get the collectors edition with a statue of Leon made by Capcom and it’s amazing. We enjoyed playing the game on PS4 because of the neat sounds the joystick made when opening doors.
Looking forward to the rumours of resident evil 8 & the remake of resident evil 3!
I am excited for borderlands 3 to come out on the Xbox one. I played all of there games and was in love
Final fantasy remake

I’m most excited for the release of the complete Master Chief Collection on PC. I grew up playing Halo and now that I’m away at school I have the chance to enjoy the title with my friends again. I’m glad that 343 has decided to make the port and hopefully it will bring fans back to Halo.
SUPER MARIO MAKER 2!!!! the first one was amazing. Cannot wait for this one to be released! I grew up playing mario and now i can make my own levels! Super awesome!!
I am most excited about the announcement that more details about the new Marvel Avengers game will be show at E3 this year. This was announced by Square Enix and this is important to me because I have always loved superhero games and I have been waiting for this one to come out since it was announced two years ago.

Excited for Nintendo’s announcement for The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening on the Nintendo Switch. The original Link’s Awakening was my first Zelda game and I can’t wait to learn what Nintendo has to offer in this remake. Hoping for some new content added and perhaps maybe a new 2D Zelda game using the same engine and visuals.
Im most excited about Super Mario 2 by Nintendo. Still making great games after all these years.
I am most excited about Microsoft’s announcement concerning the release of the Xbox 2 and also it specifications, greater specifications mean better gaming experience, I love gaming so I would like everything to be at its best.
I’m most excited for Borderlands 3 and Ori and the Will of the Wisps this year. I love both series deeply and I cannot wait to play the newest titles
I’m looking forward to Call of duty modern warfare, I didn’t end up buying BO4 due to the gameplay not suiting what I like and I’ve been playing COD since MW2 and MW3 and knowing that the experience could go back to that has me really excited I honestly am not sure if it’s going to be at E3 since most games I play don’t actually go there. But it’s the game i’m most looking forward to after not buying all the new futuristic COD’s since I really didn’t like those gameplay wise. I’m actually hoping they showcase a bunch of nintendo switch games too especially that new Mario Maker 2 since I’ve never heard of or seen the first game.
Why dont these show up
Can’t wait to hear more about the new COD and what PlayStation is dropping this year. It’s a great time to be alive going into next gen system time.
Borderlands 3’s (Xbox 1) announcement has me most excited. The series has a great premise with unique characters and storyline. Waiting for this type of game to come out as the nostalgia of grinding through the game with your friends was the highlight of my 20s! The trailer looks like it brings the best things about Borderland into 2019.
Pokémon sword because I am a big Pokémon fan and it is the first new instalment for the Switch.
The announcement I’m most excited for is Cyberpunk 2077 it’s an RPG game made by CD Project Red. I’ve been anticipating this game for years and would love to see a release date
The new call of duty is what I am excited about.
Hopped on my Xbox one and the trailer for the new Call of Duty popped up and I’m excited getting to see Price again haven’t wanted to preorder a game in a long time Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare was the first Call of Duty I ever bought I grew up on the modern warfare franchise
I am excited for Super Mario Maker 2 for Nintendo Switch, I have followed and played the Mario series right from the beginning and really enjoy most of the newer releases, I know me and the kids will have hours of fun if we can get a switch!
Death stranding for PS4
I’m excited for Death Stranding from Kojima productions and Sony PlayStation. I love Hideo Kojima games, especially metal gear solid games. This game appears to look a lot like the last metal gear game.
Pokemon Sword and Shield for nintendo switch
Looking forward to what we have coming I the near future, usually stay glued to the PC game show, but if I had to nail down one thing……Hideo Kojima’s new game Death Stranding. It’s always a joy to watch the enigma that is his style unfold.
Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is the game I am the most excited about for 2019. I have been a huge SW fan since my childhood and the games I prefer are those with good writing, deep stories, and creative gameplay. I feel like EA (who, of course, was the first to announce it) did a good job with this game, and I am eager to discover it.
The announcement I’m most excited for is for the game Daemon x Machina on the Nintendo Switch. I’ve never played an action mech game before and the demo for this one is awesome!
Excited for ps5!
I’m really looking forward to some new Animal Crossing news at E3. Nintendo’s switch lineup is amazing so far, but it’s missing a certain raccoon who is willing to extort me for large sums of money in exchange for making friends.
I’m most excited about Super Mario 2! I grew up playing Super Mario and this would bring back so many good memories.
So excited since Deep Silver announced Shenmue 3 being playable at E3!!!
Both the Shenmue 1 on sega and Shenmue 2 on the Xbox we groundbreaking games and they captivated my imagination. Excited for the third instalment which I honestly thought would never happen!
Most excited for more borderlands 3 game play and more details, Xbox is definitely my choice of consoles
Borderlands 3 by Gearbox for the Ps4! The humor, the graphics, and did I mention the guns?! This shooter is a looters dream with humor to match. Whether its the ‘Top Gun’ volleyball jokes or other pop culture, this game just get its.
