  1. Most excited for Marvel’s The Avengers by Square Enix/Crystal Dynamics. Huge Avengers fan and square has pretty much said this game will be huge

  2. I’m most excited about Marvel’s The Avengers game announced by Square Enix. With the almost annual series of movies and the hype of the avengers end game it’s only right a video game follows through. I’ve followed the series since 2008 so drop that sxxx quick, we waiting.

  3. I’m looking forward to an Indie title called Baldo by Naps Team. Legend of Zelda meets studio Ghibli. It’s going to be a unique title this year. Good luck and enjoy E3!

  4. I’m really hyped for super Mario Maker 2 for the Nintendo Switch. Can’t wait to make levels for my friends and Play levels that my friends make.

  5. I am most hyped for the Pokemon Sword and Shield game that was announced by Nintendo for the Switch console. I got really stoked to play Pokemon ever since my cousin introduced to Pokemon Silver for the gameboy that he had and this announcement is important to me because I really forward to experience more of Pokemon and connect with others more.

  6. I’m excited for Square Enix remake of final fantasy 7, and the long awaited marvel avengers game! FF7 was one of my favourite games growing up, and I’m looking forward to replaying it.

  7. My most anticipated game of 2019 is definitely Outer Worlds by Obsidian. I am a fan of all things RPG, and to have the creators of the original fallout and company behind Fallout: New Vegas working together, I have all the faith that this game will be incredible.

  8. I am most excited about the Final Fantasy VII remake from Square Enix. Final Fantasy games are what got me hooked as a gamer so to revisit this classic with updated graphics and gameplay has me super excited. The idea of an episodic release also has me intrigued. I’m sure I’m going to cry during a certain cutscene.

  9. I’m most excited for Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order by Respawn Entertainment. It looks a lot like one of my favourite games ever: Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic which was a big part of my childhood. I’ve been hoping for a remake of it for years and this looks like the closest thing, so I really hope it’s great!

  10. I am definitely excited about Gears 5 from XBOX Game Studios. Never has a series just gotten better and better with each new chapter with excellent story development, and a bump in both graphical and technical quality with each new title. Can’t wait to play the next Gears of War game in the series!

  11. Most excited for The Xbox announcement this year. Want to see that next gen hardware in all its glory.

  12. I’m most excited for super Mario maker 2 mainly for the multiplayer cause you know if there’s anything better than annoying one friend with an over complicated level it’s annoying multiple friends. The game was announced by Nintendo themselves at the beginning of the February 2019 Nintendo direct this announcement is important cause Mario maker was my favourite game on the wii u and now that it’s coming to switch I can play is on the go

  13. I’m excited for PSVR and any new games coming out for it. I do not have a PS4 yet but love anything virtual reality.

  14. I’m most excited for the announcement of the console Pokémon Sword and Shield announced by Nintendo. I have grown up on the Pokémon franchise all the way back to Pokémon Red for Gameboy. I still walk around and check my Pokémon Go daily. This new console game will finally give me a reason to dive into the world of Nintendo Switch. Can’t wait to hear more!

  15. I am excited to hear that Larian Studios is working on Baldur’s Gate 3. They did an amazing job on Divinity Original Sin 2.

  16. Square Enix talking about the marvel release is super exciting!! I am a huge comic book need and marvel is hands down the best universe! I had to give up my PC stuff when I moved out and haven’t been able to afford new stuff so the PC gaming prize pack would mean the world to me so I can get back into my PC gaming!! I miss it so much!

  17. I’m personally the most excited for the new Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. The reboot of the series is in my opinion a great step for a franchise that lost its way. The original COD Modern Warfare’s are extremely nostalgic, seeing Captain Price in current gen blew my mind. Reminds me of playing through the original campaign with my brothers watching, and also reaching 10th prestige and getting golden guns on an account we all shared! Super excited to see what this iteration has in store.

  18. Ghost Recon Breakpoint by Ubisoft – I loved playing GR Wildlands in co-op mode with a buddy and Breakpoint looks amazing!

  19. I’m really pumped for this new Indie title called Baldo by Naps Team. It’s a legend of Zelda style adventure with stupid ghibli art style. I think it’s going to be a unique and interesting title this year. Good luck everyone and enjoy E3!!

  20. Thanks for the great contest!

    I think that I’m most excited for the new Pokemon Sword and Shield titles for the Switch, announced by Nintendo earlier this year. Pokemon is a hugely nostalgic game for me – I’ve been playing every gen’s installment since the original Blue/Red games for the Gameboy. Most recently I’ve been playing Let’s Go Eevee, and I’ve had a great time trading and playing with my friends even today – Pokemon seems to always have a timeless nature to it, and although there aren’t always many changes, each installment keeps me excited and hooked as ever! Can’t wait to see play the newest (and hopefully best) installment!

  21. Luigi’s Mansion 3 announced for Nintendo Switch – Polygon
    Initial release date: 2019
    Series: Nintendo Luigi’s Mansion Series
    Platform: Nintendo Switch

    We are big fans of nintendo in this house. When our family plays video games there is lots of laughter and memories being made. Luigi’s mansion is a game that has us working together to find clues and secrets.

  22. Marvel’s The Avengers by Square Enix,developer- Crystal Dynamics
    I have been hoping for a new game & can hardly wait..

  23. I’m most excited for Medievil’s release date for the ps4! Sony revealed it in a state of play a few weeks ago and I’m so excited to play a piece of my childhood again! I’m so glad they’ve stayed true to the original, I spent hours as a kid watching my mom play and then finally getting to play it myself. I hope they remake the second one too!

  24. Pokemon, Pokemon, pokemon! I have over 2000 Pokémon cards and can’t wait for the Pokemon Sword and Shield game coming my nintendo for the switch! My friends and I love playing Pokémon together both with cards or with digital! We also love our sword fights, so can’t wait for this game!

  25. I am excited to see what Nintendo has in store for the rest of 2019! More specifically waiting for the next on the Pokemon franchise. It’s important to me because I have been a fan of Nintendo and pokemon since I was 10 years old. Excited that the franchise still holds strong with adults and children alike!

  26. I’m super excited to enter any contest! I would be grateful for anything… as I get older, I don’t make time to play as much, and when I do, my old stuff works great! So, I just use those. An upgrade may be in the future, but If I win, it gives me incentive, and will likely buy more games and accessories, and such… So, the way I see it, win win thanks for the opportunity

    -hopeful applicant

  27. The game “Link’s Awakening” from Nintendo for sure is the one that I am waiting to hear from in E3 2019! I just started playing console games from last May after buying a Switch with my first game: Zelda: Breath of The Wild. I just couldn’t stop playing as a warrior who is free to do almost everything you can imagine in an RPG game, and the puzzles in the shrines were so interesting and well designed that I never felt I could stop. Having finished that game, I then even found some old versions of Zelda to try but I just need more stories and new adventures in Zelda’s world, until I noticed the possible release date and gameplay video of Link’s Awakening! The game looks lots of fun playing as puzzles and adventure with music(tempo), and in a pixel way (perfect for new fan for the original taste of Zelda years ago)! I just want to start to play the game RIGHT AWAY…

  28. I am so excited to learn more about Ghost of Tsushima for the PS4 developed by the very excellent Sucker Punch. It looks to be a very interesting game. I am also very obsessed with swordplay based action games.

  29. I can’t wait to see more cyberpunk 2077 and the last of Us 2 gameplay, I’m very exited for what CD project red and naughty dog show in stage.
    Also the announcement of new consoles, maybe (fingers crossed…)

  30. I’m most excited for Nintendo’s Pokémon Sword and Shield coming to the Nintendo Switch. I grew up playing Pokémon with my sister, and can’t wait to see what new features they incorporate into the game now that it’s coming to the Switch!

  31. I’m excited about kojima production death stranding because of the recent trailer hideo kojima just released. The storyline seems very mysterious and complex like the metal gear solid series. Plus, I want see what type unique bosses hideo kojima created. Since Hideo kojima made bosses like psycho mantis and the end from metal gear solid series and they had unique eay of killing them.

  32. I’m excited to see The Avengers game by Square Enix. I’ve been a huge fan of the comics since I was a kid and have loved what marvel has done with the MCU. And what a fascinating concept, having Square Enix do an Avengers game. If I was to pick a developer to make a Marvel game it wouldn’t have been Square. That just makes me all the more curious as to what this game is.

  33. I’m most interested in the Nintendo announcements. My kids love playing games on their switch.

  34. Phil spencer just announced that the Xbox show at E3 is going to show off 14 first party Xbox game studio games!! Add that to 3rd party games, and this is going to be a jam packed show. Games games games!! That’s what we want, and reveal trailers are extra cool! Can’t wait for E3, especially Xbox and Nintendo:)

  35. Even though they wont be at E3 its all about The Last of Us 2 by Naughty Dog. They set the bar incredibly high with part 1 with there amazing storytelling and character development now its time to see whats in store for the second time around. Heres hoping for a 2019 release!

  36. I am really excited for many things at this years E3, but the absolute most exciting game for me has to be Borderlands 3!

  37. The announcement that WCCFTech is going to continue FABKE 4!!!!! I cannot wait, this is a must for me

  38. I’m very curious about the new console PS5 and the partnership between Microsoft and Sony for cloud gaming!

  39. I’m most excited about the upcoming Pokémon games Sword and Shield, developed by Game Freak and published by The Pokémon Company and Nintendo for the Nintendo Switch! Still remember first opening Pokémon Blue on a Christmas morning, competing with my brother who received Red, to see who was further in the game.

  40. Our household is stoked over Tom Clancy’s The Division 2 Gold Edition SteelBook from ubisoft.com‎ for the PS4. I am hearing a lot of good reviews on it. But I am really interested on the equiptment announcements. I am also really interested because Xbox has confirmed it’ll be holding a major E3 2019 briefing. I am looking forward to next-gen consoles, games and more. I like new and shiny toys!! We love our gaming systems! Also looking forward to Marvel’s The Avengers game by Square Enix. I hear the colours are engaging. Too many games on the marketplace are dark.

  41. The Anouncement that Wwccftech mage that they will be making FABEL 4 !!!!!! I cannot wait this is a must for me !

  42. I’m most excited for Marvels the Avengers game by Square Enix on Xbox one. I am a huge MCU fan and can’t wait for a great avengers video game to finally come out!

  43. Call of Duty Modern Warfare (Infinity Ward) for sure! I miss the days of logging on regularly with my friends and playing Call of Duty. And who doesn’t love Captain Price?

  44. At 67 yrs old. I play Borderland on my computer which is not the fastest but i still love the game. My adult kids think I should have a game station so I can with the speed it was intended to played at. It would be exciting ti play the new borderland on Playstation or Xbox. By the time I get one it may be a hand me down or the game will be old by then . lol

  45. I am most excited for Borderlands 3 Which was announced by 2K Games and Gearbox Software. I have all really enjoyed all them so far!
