  1. Nintendo Prize Pack #1 ~ I finally learned to master Super Mario Bros with my 13 year old granddaughters help….this would be so much fun to get all of us together and have a fun competition!!!

  2. I can’t wait for The Last of Us 2 on Playstation. That and the new versions of the Nintendo Switch.

  3. I don’t know what to choose but I’m really excited to see what’s the next move of Sony on their incoming Playstation 5. Are they going to join the cloud-based gaming or they will finally release a backward compatible console or are they going to team up with xbox. I can’t wait!!!!

  4. Most definitely the Call Of Duty Modern Warfare announcement from Activision/Infinity Ward.
    I have always been a huge fan of the Modern Warfare series (especially MW2) and can’t wait to see this new installment. I’ve always loved the cinematic/graphics a lot more compared to the black ops series. Countless memories were made and hours spent online playing MW2 with buddies. Maybe we’ll get to re live some of those moments again.
    I have moved out of home and left my ps4 with my little brother. Didn’t realise how much I was going to be missing it…. And how difficult it is to save money to buy a new one or any other console lol.

  5. Borderlands 3 because i played the 1 and 2 and i loved the games since the people who made it was the ones who did bioshock witch is my favorite game of all time

  6. I am very excited for Borderlands 3 from Gearbox Software. I have been a huge fan of the borderlands franchise from the beginning and have been patiently waiting for borderlands 3. It’s been a while coming but I know gearbox took their time to do it right!

    2019 is going to quite the year!

  7. Honestly I’m excited about everything from nintendo. But I’m most excited for their animal crossing announcements!!!!

  8. I’m very excited for E3 2019, and I am most excited for the game Mario Maker 2 for the Nintendo Switch, because I loved creating levels to share with my friends, and playing other people’s levels from people all around the world, in Mario Maker 1 for the Wii U, and look forward to making new levels, that my friends can’t beat.

  9. I’m really excited for the new call of duty by Infinitiward and the revival of the modern warfare series. I’m excited for the nostalgic feeling that I got when I lined up for mw2 at midnight with my friends. Xbox One baby!

  10. Excited for red dead redemption even if it’s out, but this game is crazy and I love it !

  11. Waiting to hear more about super smash bros from Nintendo! My kids are finally coming of age to play the games, but I don’t have the console!

  12. Waiting to hear more about super smash bros from Nintendo! My kids are finally coming of age to play the games, but I don’t have the console! A new Pokémon announcement might have to change that too!

  13. Would love to see how pokemon has evolved over the years! Personally, the only games I remember playing are diamond and black, and have never really liked the 3D implementation, but would love to see it at LEAST once. Of course, that’s if I ever get enough money for a switch though…

  14. The new modern ware fare for the Xbox one by actdevision has me most exited for this year it’s just a awesome game have bin waiting a long time for it

  15. All about the Switch right now (until COD MW) comes out in October. Love the Crash games – especially Team Racing.

  16. Can’t Waite to see what games they plan on releasing and going to show for the Nintendo switch, I feel like it’s going be an excited time for games all around.

  17. The announcement I am most excited for is “Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order” (manufactured by Respawn Entertainment/Electronic Arts!) We have been starved for a great Star Wars game since the original Battlefront, and I feel like this could be it! So excited for it!

  18. Animal Crossing for Nintendo Switch. Need something to lose some of my lifetime on

  19. I’m excited for the new Xbox one S fortnite bundle because I love the color and fortnite and I just love Xbox it’s self

  20. Definitely looking forward too the new call of duty modern warfare that was just recently announced! Always been a fan of cod ♡

  21. Kind of disappointed that Sony Playstation isn’t going to be at E3 this year. Besides that i cant wait to hear anything about The Last of Us Part 2 from Naughty Dog, hopefully a released date.

  22. I was excited to hear news about the upcoming Atari VCS.
    I am overly excited to get this system.
    This system represents a time when games were about skill and not so much graphics.
    This console is going to be listed at the top
    It comes preloaded with over 100 classic Atari games and will have new original content

  23. Borderlands 3 is going to be goty by far. I’ve played every borderlands game and this might be their best one yet can’t wait to see more gameplay of it.

  24. BORDERLANDS 3!! The first two made mine and my little brothers childhood! The legends at gearbox software make the best looter shooter titles we’ve seen in the gaming industry and I’m so hyped for the next one to have a good laugh as well as great gameplay with friends!

  25. I’m most excited about the announcement of more details for Marvel’s Avengers that being developed by Square Enix and Crystal Dynamics! They teased it at E3 in 2017 I believe and Last year Marvel’s Spider-Man was a game changer for the superhero genre of the gaming industry! It was my favorite game of 2018 and more games in that genre need to be made alongside the growing superhero movie industry! With the teases and small details about Marvel’s Avengers already being said, it sounds like this game is going to be really big and might even be similar to Marvel’s Spider-Man! I can’t wait to see what they have in store for E3 this year! Hopefully some gameplay and story!

  26. I was blow away by the announcement of Borderlands 3, developed by Gearbox Software and published by 2K Games.
    The manufacturer (?) that first made the announcement, to my knowledge, was IGN.com, but I first learned of the game while browsing youtube.

    This announcement was important to me as it caused me to have a flashback to the release of borderlands 2 back in 2012. I had just got my first paycheck from a new job, and was sitting on a bust heading home. Two months before, I had received a PlayStation 3 for my birthday but unfortunately did not receive a game with the Playstation.
    As I browsed old skool ‘lets plays’ on youtube, I stumbled onto the newly posted reviews on Borderlands 2. It turns out, that borderlands had just released that same day.
    The game was unlike anything else I had seen. The game looked like a painting ( cell shaded) the environments and enemies where absolutely crazy looking, and the games humor really spoke to me.

    It is important to point out that I am not a spontaneous person. But on this day I new I had to play this game. The bus came to a stop at a random bus stop in Langley. When I looked up it was not my Bus Stop; but there was a random clothing store, grocery store and a Best Buy right by the bus. I got off the bus and walked straight into the Best Buy. I found my way to the back of store, found the last 3 copies of game, picked up one, and walked to he check out. After having my ID checked (xd lol) I walked back to the bus stop with my first PS3 game in my backpack, and proceeded to wait 30 minutes for the next bus home.

    Its been 7 Years since that game came out. In that time, I have graduated from University and found a new job. I am excited for Borderlands 3 as it will be the first New Borderlands game to be released on the PS4. The reveal of the game filled me a shot of nostalgia, and for the first time in a long time I am counting the months till a video game come outs. I did not know I could feel this sort of excitement, but Borderlands made me feel like a Kid again.

  27. the last of us 2! it’s the sequel to the game the last of us! it’s developed by Naughty Dog and published by Sony Computer Entertainment. it’s important to me as I really loved the first game and the wonderful story-line it had!

  28. Baldo! It’s an indie game produced by Naps Team that appears to be inspired by games like Ni No Kuni and Legend of Zelda. Totally stoked to learn more about this recently announced game and looking forward to playing it on my Switch, once it’s released. I love supporting the smaller produced games, because they often take interesting creative risks – where the larger developers tend to play it safe.

  29. COD MW. Loved the first 3 (first one got me into FPS) and can’t wait for the “4th”

  30. The game I’m most excited for is Crash Team Racing from Activision. I remember playing all the crash games when I was younger on the PS2 and even bought them for my PS4, sadly it broke and I’m in withdrawal until I can get a new one.

  31. I was a huge fan of Roller Derby and the new game coming from Ubisoft Roller Champions is the one I am looking forward to the most

  32. Extremely excited to hear more about Halo Infinite. Microsoft being the publisher with 343 industries behind the new magic of Halo. I have been a fan of Halo since I first played combat evolved on my cousins original xbox in what must have been 2004 or 05. I ended up getting an xbox 360 to play Halo 3 and have been enticed in the story ever since. Halo infinite appears to focus back on master chief and his adventure and the more expansive Halo universe and will focus more on a larger world and immersive multiplayer gameplay, which I always play with my friends through the story. I am a huge fan of both Microsoft and Sony but Halo is the flagship item that keeps me primarily interested in and purchasing Xbox consoles. Can’t wait to see what else Halo Infinite has in store for everyone.

  33. Hands Down Ghost of Tsushima! Hopefully there will be more information! Been waiting for any sort of news since its reveal in 2017. This has been the longest tease for a game I have ever waited for. Hopefully during E3 , there will be more information (hope) that we have more information/ development for this game. Thank you for this contest!

  34. I’m most excited for Pokémon sword and shield I’ve played all previous generations so I’m excited to see how good this one turns out

  35. I’m very excited for the 2019 release of Borderlands 3 by Gearbox Software. Borderlands is one of my favourite games as I grew up because of it’s engaging gameplay, and crazy story. I have been waiting for this latest edition and look forward to enjoying a sequel of a childhood classic.

  36. Super excited to play let’s go eevee on the switch because I played the game boy games as a kid and now play Pokemon go as an adult. Can’t wait to see the game they created from this
