E3 2019. There are many exciting announcements coming to us this year. The one that I’m most looking forward to is microsoft’s next gen console announcements. This will be one exciting exciting E3 for us.
Super pumped for Luigi’s Mansion for Nintendo Switch as it was the best for GameCube & it’s only been 18 years!!
I’m the most excited about The Avengers game that was announced by Square Enix. Endgame being as good as it was, this just adds to all the Marvel hype, especially from a company like Square Enix.
I’m most excited about Gears 5 by The Coalition (Microsoft). We don’t get a lot of games that have a female main character and for such a traditionally male game to go that route? It just really make me happy
I’m really pumped for my son to save up and buy a Nintendo Switch! I want to play games like Mario Kart 8, and relive my youth! Thanks for the contest!
This year’s news about the Final Fantasy VII Remake, shown during Sony’s State of Play, has me particularly excited for the Square Enix presentation at E3. This is the game that got me into RPGs and the soundtrack inspired me to pursue a career in music – now a doctoral student in music composition!
I’m honestly very excited for any potential news on the remaining Smash fighters 🙂
I would absolutely love the Xbox one X. Mainly because I’ve been running with the original One(advanced warfare console) ever since release. However after so much play time and switching between houses and my campus, it is messing up a lot. And being a university student, being able to buy a new Xbox is not really in the budget plan, so I’m forced to go for all these contests in hopes of being able to win one, so in my free time I’ll be able to play some xbox
Love the revamping of classic nindies games by Nintendo. Like them announcing a new Zelda game, great idea to suck my generation back in. I only wish I had a switch to play these games
My son is exited about Super Mario Odyssey (Switch).
On the PS4, I am looking forward to the new Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order by Respawn Entertainment. Can’t wait until November 15 2019, pick me I hope to win!!!
I’m hoping we hear more on Elder Scrolls VI from Bethesda. Haven’t had any late night gaming sessions in awhile!
Death Stranding by Kojima is the game that intrigues me the most.
There hasn’t been a Splinter Cell game since the ps3 days. That would be a must buy for me.
I’m really looking forward to the new Animal Crossing on Nintendo Switch, I’ve been looking forward to this since its tease/announcement back in the October/November Direct. I really enjoyed Animal Crossing New Leaf so having a mainline, HD Animal Crossing on my new favourite system would be awesome
Im most excited for the Avengers game developed by crystal dynamics and eidos montreal. Announced and published by square enix. It’s an important announcement/reveal for me because I’m a huge superhero fan. The spiderman game last year from insomniac games was incredible and fun, so hopefully this avengers game takes Marvel’s gaming to even greater heights. Ironman as a character is something I treasure dearly , as relating the the heroic and human side to the character has gotten me through so many tough times of my own. And we all know how heroic Mr.Stark was in Avengers Endgame. Being able to see all heroes on a qled tv and ps4 pro would be incredible.
I’m excited about the Netflix announcement about games based on streaming shows. Could be interesting. Also the Avengers game by Square Enix is going to be amazing!!
E3 2019. Well there are a bunch of exciting announcements out there. The most I’m looking forward to is the next gen console update for microsoft’s Xbox and the games it’ll will be launching with. I also heard its backward compatible with xbox one games. I predict that this will be one hella E3 for us.
Zombies – COD!
Square Enix – Avengers. It’ll be great to see a movie/video game combo that captures both excellent gameplay and storyline that’s created after a movie title.
I’m super excited about the announcement from Nintendo on their remake of The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening for the Switch. I’ve been looking for games that I will want to play on this console to justify my purchase of the console since its release, and since I no longer have the time to get deep into games (online or offline), the current selection of games has not drawn me to the platform enough for a purchase. This remake is one that reminds me of the days of the game boy and should allow me to play it at my own pace whenever I’m able to carve out some free time!
While I’d like to see specs on a new Xbox console – and if it helps me decide whether to stay or to go – the promises of “epic” from Square Enix’s new Avengers offering definitely puts it at the top of my list.
Final Fantasy VII Remake!!
This game is the ultimate. I cannot wait for this to be released, and to be able to play it on a brand new playstation?!
Thank you bestbuy for making this possible! Let’s go! 2019!
The Avengers game that was announced by Square Enix I’ve been a marvel fan for 30 years and a square Enix fan as well for just as long. Looking forward to what will be a hit!
The Avengers sounds very exciting, perfect for a lot of ages would be a wonderful fathers day gift.
I am looking forward to a Grand Theft Auto announcement!!
I’m most excited for halo infinite cause I’ve always loved the halo series. I’m excited to see where this universe goes. It’s microsoft that makes it and 343 is the developers.
I am definitely looking forward to Gears 5 by The Coalition Studios. I’ve been a fan of the Gears of War franchise since it first debuted in 2006. I can’t wait to see what they unveil at the E3 event!
I am very interested to the Marvel’s The Avengers game by Square Enix release!!!
Looking forward to announcements from Bethesda about the new Wolfenstein Youngblood game. The last two wolfenstein games are definitely on my list of favorite games of all time and I am very excited to try the new one.
I’m really excited for the ps5 and for the new call of duty modern ware fare thanks Best Buy !!
For me it had to be the release of Star Wars Jedi:Fallen Order later this year in November from EA . As a massive Star Wars fan this game will take the story to the next level!
Marvel’s Avengers by Square Enix, on the PS system by Sony. Absolutely love the leaked graphics and gameplay. So excited for the immersive experience Square Enix can b known for.
The new Switch should be an interesting announcement, but anything E3 related is fun. The Xbox prize packs look amazing!!!
The E3 announcement that has me the most excited should the rumours turn out to be true has to be Final Fantasy 7 Remake. If it’s all just smoke hearing about Resident Evil 3 remake would be a close second.
I am definitely most excited about Ubisoft releasing Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint! I’ve been hooked on Division 2 lately and feel ready for a change.
I’m most excited for the Square Enix event to hear more about the Final Fantasy VII HD game remake. I played this game for years on what felt like repeat. The story arcs, subplots, the loveable characters and timeless visuals made for a breathtaking and timeless experience. So I’m truly excited to see what they do with it from here.
Favourite announcement? The next Xbox console. Can’t wait.
I am ready to see halo infinite. I love halo and I’m ready for the chiefs next fight.
I was excited about the PS5 console announcement because of it’s high quality gaming experience.
The new Avengers Game by Square-Enix (and Crystal Dynamics). With great games as the Batman Arkham series and Marvel’s Spider-man we are due a great Avengers game. Also this will give me the best excuse to finally get an Xbox One or a Switch!
Bay 12 Games announced Dwarf Fortress would be published on steam by Kitfox Games. As part of this, it will have a graphic pack rather than relying on ascii characters.
Last of us 2 by naughty dog …. been waiting a long time this game has been on my radar for a while
I can’t wait to hear more about Cyberpunk 2077 at E3 this year. CD Project Red has got me hyped about the game and the Witcher 3 was amazing!
Borderlands 3 is gonna be amazing! Grew up with this franchise – great gameplay and story!
Ive been waiting for death stranding for a while now! Hideo kojima is a STUD and i can’t wait to play this game and get swallowed by the storyline! It is published by playstation and it is just another reason why ps4 are the best!
Omg… I so want to win the PS4 prize pack.
This should keep my boys busy all summer lol. So much games included… And a Gold edition steel box … How cool is that !!!!
I’d be one Happy mom to win this … just saying
I’m most excited about The Avengers game that was announced by Square Enix. The build up for the announcement is just adding to the anticipation.
Can’t wait to see all the game reviews and previews super excitied!!
Super interested in seeing more about Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order by Respawn, and everything unannounced!
