Last of Us 2 by Naughty Dog on PS4 is the follow up to on of my favourite games ever!
I’m excited about Dune! Been too long.
I’m most excited for the release of Ryzen 3rd Gen, and Navi. AMD will dominate the market once again!
The Microsoft E3 announcements have me excited, they are showcasing 14 first-party games!! just the sound of that sounds exciting to see whats revealed. Im hoping for a new Fable announcement for sure. I’m also crossing fingers they show or announce their next gen Xbox console. This is very important to me to see what MS has in store as a gamer bbecause they are calling it their biggest E3 yet and I have no doubts about that with them already saying they have 14 first party games, possibly a new console to see what powerhouse can come after the xbox one x and more, im super excited. Thanks #BestBuy for the opportunity & enjoy E3!
I am super excited for Ubisoft’s Roller Champions. Rocket League is simple to start, hard to master, and short games. I’m expecting Roller Champions to have those same features that made Rocket League so fun.
I’m excited to see what new products Nintendo plans to discuss!
Or to see how Bethesda is gonna handle the blunders they’ve made so far!
2019 makes me most excited because the future is now!
I’m really excited for Star Wars Fallen Order being released by EA. I’ve always loved the Star Wars franchise and everything it’s had to offer from the movies to the video games. It’s always been a beloved past time of playing it with my friends and family.
Watching Nintendo conference, comfortable in my chair, thinking in my old ages and then… WOW! Star Fox 2 lol
Microsoft, Bethesda, Square Enix, Nintendo.. hard to pick on e3 is like the super bowl for me
My favourite announcement? Has to be the Vive Index VR HMD. Combined with the excellent looking revisions they’ve made to the controllers, as well as the upgrade to up to 144Hz, it seems like a very exciting change and our first real step towards great consumer VR. After the past few years of first-and-second-gen products, bugs and lack of mainstream appeal to the platform, VR seemed like it was on a downward slope. I only hope I can afford the PC upgrades necessary when they announce the much awaited Canadian launch. Perhaps Sony may have something to say about the PS5’s VR capability as well.
I’m excited to hear more about Xbox PC Game Pass. I really enjoy the current Game Pass. This will give me more options on PC!
Im really excited to see more gameplay of Borderlands 3 from 2K games! I loved borderlands 1 and 2 and the pre sequel, and I just can’t wait for the third instalment!!!
Final Fantasy VII Remake might finally be going somewhere! Will it come in 2019? I hope so!
As a Nintendo Switch (only) owner, I’m obviously quite excited for their up coming announcements. Excited to learn a bit more about Fire Emblem and hopefully hear much more on Animal Crossing and Luigi’s Mansion 3 if they’re discussed. I’m also anxious for that rumoured Metroid Prime Trilogy should it ever actually surface
All in all, I just enjoy the E3 experience and am curious if the show will still exist next year should other companies follow in Sony’s steps and withdraw from the event.
Obviously long shot to win based on the entries, but I’d obviously love to experience the Xbox or PS4 system if given a chance. As a dad with a young family, my gaming money is restricted slightly, but I’m happy with the Switch as the perfect hybrid console.
Thanks to Best Buy for running these contests and for the work of the staff during the event. Happy E3 everyone!
I’m excited for the new Animal Crossing for Nintendo Switch. It’s been a few years and I miss visiting my village every day.
I am most, excited for the console announcement. Both Microsoft and Sony. I’ve been playing consoles from the very start. We are talking Pong here. It’s been a wild journey but I believe these will be the last, of the consoles. I truly can’t wait to see what the developers have done with the technology at their disposal. I have become an Xbox guy but am very curious to see if Sony will win me back this round.
I’m looking forward to any news on the release dates for Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord and Cyberpunk 2077!
I’m excited for more info on all the cool Nintendo exclusives like Luigi’s mansion
Probably Gears of War 5
Im very excited for battlefield V and fifa 20 by EA games, coz EA is my home town company
As a huge fan of MCU I’m most excited for the reveal of the avengers game. Can’t wait!
Definitely Call of Duty Modern Warfare . Swing Soap McTavish in the old series and the new look is something that I’d pay for!!
Looking forward to the new Nintendo switch games. I just got the N switch and loving it, what to add to my collection of games.
I’m excited about Super Mario 2. It’s about time!
I’m excited for the new Call of Duty Modern Warfare by Activision. They are going old school, back to their roots when the game was better.
I was really excited when Infinity Ward announced that Call of Duty Modern Warfare (2019) will be a cross-platform game. I felt very nostalgic because in the older modern warfare me and my friends would always compete in regards to who is better, but we played on different consoles. And whenever we would have a gathering and we play on one console, the person who is not used to the console in use would always use that as an excuse. But now, oh man. Now we can finally compete at our best and in our preferred environment. This is exciting because you will also get the best players from the other consoles too playing with you.
I am very excited about call of duty, i just love that gamr
I’m most excited for Super Mario Maker 2 on the Nintendo Switch because all mario series games has been a childhood memory/excitement when each new one comes out. Super excited to play with my sibling as we have a big family but it can get very competitive

Let’s get it! I would love me a new ps4 to share with my family
I’m most excited for FIFA 20, haven’t had a FIFA game in a while and I think it’s time to pick it back up. Obviously it’s an EA game and I grew up loving the old FIFA games. I love playing them with my friends and my sister. As a football fan its always a fun time.
Excited about the new Occulus VR headsets!
I am most excited about Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 4. Ive always been a fan of activision and the modern warfare line overall, but I am extra excited for this release. I used to play all the time as a kid but eventually stopped gaming for awhile do to school and work etc. I loved playing whether I was playing alone or with friends and cant wait to get back into it again. Haven’t had a console in forever so hoping I win something to play on
I am most excited for The Last of Us Part II for the Playstation 4!
I’m most excited for the details on the Final Fantasy VII Remake, since we haven’t heard much about it since 2015, as well as any Kingdom Hearts 3 dlc.
BORDERLANDS 3 I’ve been playing borderlands the complete series like a mad man trying to collect all legendaries both on PS3 and on PS4. So a 4th instalment is amazing to say the least
I personally cannot wait for the reveal of all Pokemon related stuff at E3 by Nintendo and Gamefreak. Pokemon has played a significant part since I was a child. Ever since, I would always look forward to any Pokemon related games.
I’m most excited for Super Mario Maker 2 on Nintendo Switch that and Square Enix’s Dragon Quest Builders 2 releasing on both Nintendo Switch and PS4. Aside from being a long time Mario and DQ fan. I’m eager to stream and be creative with these titles. Maybe get good enough to speed run or play on super hard level designs by fellow creators.
the new avengers game announced at e3! My son is going to love it he’s obsessed with the skylanders! He’s a great kid and loves to game out when hes not reading
Boarderlands 3!!
I am most excited to see what Marvel’s Avengers by Square Enix is all about.
Will it tie in with Marvel’s Spider-Man? Will it be an RPG? ARPG? We don’t even know the genre, but the developers seem very confident in it! That has my interest spiked.
The announcement I’m most excited for is Cyberpunk 2077 made by CD Projekt Red. The reason I’m most excited about it is because it looks to be one of the biggest games that I hope to play for a long time. CD Projekt Red is putting a lot of effort and attention to detail for this game. The struggle of games nowadays are either their short campaign lengths or lack of replay value. Cyberpunk 2077 looks to be a very diverse and rich experience.
Super excited for Microsoft’s announcement on Halo infinite. Always been a big fan of the Halo saga and everything I’ve read so far is hyping me up.
Hands down Jedi Fallen Order for Xbox, bought the Xbox day one and have been loyal throughout. Gotta love playing with your friends from different countries, as well as mad respect for e 3
I’m pretty excited for Pokémon Sword/Shield as Pokémon has been a series I’ve played since childhood. Also Animal Crossing is another I’ve been excited about as it’s one I played with my mother back when it was on GameCube
Stoked for the Playstation 5 by Sony!
Definitely excited for Pokemon!
I am most excited for the new call of duty modern warfare (made by Activision) game coming out! I have been playing call of duty since world at war and its been nothing but great memories. Bonding with my brothers playing zombies and multiplayer. Having a gaming night with all my pals and grinding for master prestige or challenges!
I’m most excited for the Madden 20. It will be a great game and I look forward to matching up with the world.
