  1. Cannot wait for the new Wolfenstein Youngblood game in Switch, PS4, Xbox One and PC platforms because who cannot resist more of the previous devastation.

  2. I’m super excited if Nintendo is making a new Metroid Prime game, it’s been a while. For the Wii U or if not, the Switch, but then I’ll need a Switch for the family.

  3. COD Modern Warfare why you say well Activision Is finally changing things up! Going more authentic with the ability to open and peek a door, keeping the game grounded, cross play and whatever else they have up there sleeve. Looking forward to the changes!

  4. I’m most excited for the Pokemon Sword and Shield game announced by Nintendo for the Switch! I grew up playing pokemon on my gameboy and love that now we can play with our kids as a family on the Switch! So many amazing games I’m really looking forward to checking out but the nostalgia of Pokémon will always hold a special place in my heart 🙂 thanks so much for this amazing chance!

  5. Call of Duty Modern Warfare from Infinity Ward!

    I’m super excited because COD is finally returning to modern times, also because the game will apparently be very realistic and have a shocking intriguing campaign, two things I love! I was a little disappointed with BO4 but this looks promising!

    If I won this PS4 PRO the first thing I would do is get a 4K TV, let’s hope I win, fingers crossed!

  6. It’s hard to pick just one announcement. A new game, new hardware or new technology, it’s hard to be excited about just 1 thing.

    The recently announced Sony made about Kojima’s Death Stranding is sure to get a lot of people excited, I am for sure. Or maybe the anticipated PS5 would get the world buzzing. Call of duty going back to their modern warfare route maybe. Nvidia pushing the graphical boundaries. There’s a lot more to be excited about.

    Personally for me I think it’s Google’s Stadia. The idea of being able to play games anywhere on any hardware that can connect to the internet and has a display, that is sheer bliss. The decade long debates of is PS4 better than Xbox or is PC better than PS4 will be a small story in the history books. No more waiting times to download a new game, or the wait times coz of a big patch update that makes you have to find something to do as it updates. No longer having to worry about hardware compatibility.
    Stadia takes a whole new meaning to the phrase plug and play. I can’t wait to test it out and I hope they make older games available to play as well, games that you required a PlayStation or Xbox or Wii or switch or the hardware at that time was too taxing on your PC.

    I wonder if there will be more exciting new in E3. Bring it on E3!!

  7. The new super Mario brother. Just can’t get bored of these game. Been waiting for it so long. Now is here. Love it

  8. The announcement I’m most excited for in 2019 is Nintendo’s Metroid Prime 4. It’s been over a decade since the last one and the first three were emblematic of my childhood. Can’t wait for this one.

  9. Activision’s announcement of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare!

    Its going to be great to have CoD back to what got it so big in the first place. Seeing the trailer with Captain Price brought back so many memories.
    It’s been quite a number of years since my old gaming squad has gotten together. We’ve all gone off to post-secondary and done our own things, but I think this game would be just the thing to get us all back together again, considering MW2 is really where we all came together.
    The game seems to have so much potential. Not only for gameplay, but for reuniting old friends and creating long-lasting memories.

  10. I’m looking forward to Final Fantasy 7 remake from Sqare Enix. Mainly curious to see how things will change.

  11. Gotta say borderlands 3 game looks amazing with new weapons and characters all new skills!! Looks like 2K, Gear box and epic games put the time into it. The grind will be real again!! Can’t wait for the 4 person co-op!!

  12. Hi Best Buy Gang!
    Well I’m really excited for Death Stranding… kind of looks like days gone but by our favorite metal gear creator Hideo Kojima!
    Not sure what it is about… but who doesn’t want to play as Daryl from walking dead in a seemingly post apocalyptic waste land!
    Anyway awesome prize packs all and I envy the lucky few who will win.
    I’ll keep my ears open for more exciting info on your blog and happy summer all

  13. I’m most excited for Cyberpunk 2077 from CD Projekt Red. The Witcher franchise are some of my favourite games ever. I love the open world rpg gameplay and the fantasy elements. This game looks amazing and I’m super excited to spend many hours of my life playing it. I’m also excited for what Nintendo will announce, I recently got a Switch and my kids love playing with me, so it gives me more bonding time playing video games which is something we all love to do together

  14. Marvel’s Avengers by Square-Enix has me most excited. The reveal at E3 along with the leaked details make this my most anticipated. If it’s true it will be like Destiny, my wife and I will have a blast. We love the Destiny games and Marvel!

  15. I’m most excited for the series that changed co-op and loot based games forever: Borderlands. I’m ready to dive back into the world of Pandora with Borderlands 3 from Gearbox, and I have faith that (despite some public missteps) the devs will come through with a solid experience for me and my friends.

  16. Can not wait to see everything XBOX specially next gen reveals. I feel like since Sony won’t be at E, XBOX will announcements will be bigger then ever. The game I want to hear more about is Wolfenstein Young Blood, all the other games in the series have been amazing.

  17. I think one thing I’m most excited for is halo: infinite made by bungie of course. Always loved playing halo and hopefully with this next instalment we can get the squad back together!

  18. Most excited for Borderlands 3 by gearbox software. I’ve played the other 3 games with my brother and you just don’t get to play many couch CO-OP games anymore. Thanks to Best Buy for doing this

  19. The Avengers game announced by Square Enix sounds interesting. Who doesn’t like the Avengers.

  20. I am super hyper for more information on pokemon sword and shield by Game Freak! I have been a huge fan of the pokemon games as I grew up playing them on my game boy! Ultimately I have been a huge fan of gaming my entire life across all platforms and any of these prize packs would be amazing to win!

    Gaming has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember all the way back to playing Double dragon and super Mario with my mom!

  21. The announcement of
    Borderlands 3 from 2K Games and Gearbox Software has me smiling like a kid on Christmas day.
    I’ve been a Borderlands fan since Day 1. Played 1 and 2 multiple times and the Pre Sequel.
    I’ve been hyped for Borderlands 3 and I’m super excited that it’s coming out in September. I can’t wait to play it.

  22. I’m looking forward to Square Enid announcement. Both avengers and FF7 is exciting. I never got into FF7 original and hope the remake is same as original but with improved graphics. Also high hopes for avengers game! We’ll just have to wait and see.

  23. Most excited about the new Modern Warfare, the last Call of Duty I really enjoyed playing was MW3.

  24. I am very excited for MULTIPLE reasons but mostly for the Call of Duty Modern Warfare new game launch and release this fall as I am a game streamer through twitch.tv Also I have the Call Of Duty franchise aswell as grew up playing every ome of them up to the latest Black Ops 4. If I were to win it would not only upgrade my console and gaming library, but it would help me grow as a streamer and give back to the very supportive gaming community. I would also give FREE advertisment as a contest winner if you would like. Thank you for this opportunity.

  25. More information about Pokemon Sword and Shield! Also hoping for Beat Saber to come to the Switch!

  26. I was not really excited about any game really until I saw the latest trailer for the game death stranding for the play station 4. When I saw the first trailer at E3 previously I was intrigued with so many questions about what was happening. The latest trailer answers some of the initial questions but brings up so many more. This game is a day one purchase.

  27. I’m most excited to see where the next generation is headed. From insane graphics, new IPs and deeper more realistic VR. Playstation has always been my go to, but definitely enjoyed Nintendo and even PC gaming for a time. I’m really interested in seeing what the PS5 is going to offer, and I can’t wait to see their booth at E3.

    Thanks for this opportunity, Game on!

  28. Star wars : jedi fallen order
    I would love to see some more info. Gameplay. Anything really released. Super hype ! Let’s go !!!

  29. I’m really excited about 2019 and 2020 cuz all the new games and gaming technology is coming out , can’t wait to try them and Tell my friend about them to play together

  30. I’m really hoping to get a release date for Cyberpunk 2077! CD Projekt made the announcement so long ago and there has been some insane demo footage, but I want to know when I can actually get my hands on it and be able to explore this crazy future world they have been building!

  31. I am excited about the announcement of fifa 20 by Ea sports. It is the only game that I play and I am really like it because I love soccer. In addition I play ultimate team which is a game mode of the video game and it is like a competition with other people around the world which is something very good

  32. There’s a new game coming soon called BioMutant that looks really cool. Has a interesting character manipulation feature on a standard open world action game that looks awesome. Very excited to try this game out. Also have had my eye on a switch for awhile just to dig into classic nes games again and play the new Mario and Zelda games. A lot of fun for my kids and myself.

  33. There are a few different titles that I am really looking forward to hearing more about at E3 (FFVII remake from Square Enix, Nintendo’s Animal Crossing for the switch, the new Pokémon sword & shield from Game Freak) but the title I am looking forward to the absolute most is Ubisofts Beyond Good and Evil 2.

    When I was a kid I lived out in the middle of the woods in a rural community with no internet (that’s right kiddos no internet, not even cell coverage). I LOVED playing video games and would spend any and all money i got from allowances on Playstation 2 games that I could snag from the sale bin at the Blockbuster. I remember seeing the first Beyond Good and Evil game in that bin and dismissing it, it didn’t look like a game for me. After seeing it there off and on for a few months and not really having any other good options I finally caved and bought it. I have to say, I truly regretted not getting it sooner. I sunk countless hours into it, playing and replaying on different difficulties, finding any and all collectables that I could, racing myself to beat it faster. The story really got me, I truly loved the story and honestly felt pulled to help protect the kids and the world that the game was based in.

    The most exciting thing to me this E3 is finally hearing the next part of this story that sucked me in for so many hours. I was bouncing when I heard that Ubisoft was going to make the announcement about it because it means I will get to sit down with my Playstation controller again and emerse myself into a world with Jade. Fight for what we believe in and to protect the ones we care about.

    Thank you BestBuy for the possible opportunity of winning a PS4 pro to be able to relive one of my favorite childhood memories and good luck to all of the contestants. I don’t know if you are as excited as I am about any of the announcements, but I know we will all get some gaming fun to look forward to.

  34. 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

  35. I am so excited to see the official announcement of Halo Infinite by 343 Industries for Xbox. I have been waiting for this game so long! Halo represents the first game online I have ever played, and it is one of my favorite games of all times!

  36. Hoping for a new Splinter Cell. It’s been 6 years since Blacklist, so fingers crossed for an E3 reveal!

  37. What’s more to be excited about other than the MARIO MAKER GAME for the Nintendo Switch!!! Nintendo announced this a couple of months ago and we’ve always been a fan of Mario’s world. It’s important for my family to experience yet another evolution of this game.

  38. I’m hyped for AMD’s new CPU line-up. Look like I’m going to have lots of option when I decide to build a new gaming system.
