Call of Duty by far. The new in game trailer release looks amazing and I’ve been a big fan since day 1!! Can’t wait to play the new one!
I’m excited for the Pokemon Sword and Shield announcements that will be made by Nintendo! This is important to me because I’ve been with Pokemon since the original 150 and I love seeing all the new Pokemon and creative designs that have developed since the beginning.

I am looking forward to the new Final Fantasy VII by Squarenix on PS4!
I’m really excited to hear more about the Death Stranding game because there is so much mystery around the game, even though they’ve shown so much now! The game also looks graphically amazing. I believe that Hideo Kojima made the announcement about the most recent trailer. (His company, Kojima Productions.)
In the past, Hideo Kojima has made other great titles such as Metal Gear Solid franchise, and is one of the few well known ‘pillars’ in the video games industry. It’s his development genius that appeals to me so much. This is why this game release is important to me.
Can’t wait for all the new ps4 games coming out this year!
I’m most excited for Death Stranding by the mad man Kojima. Been a fan of his work for a long time and can’t wait to see his creativity flourish without Konami’s shackles.

I know it might not be reviled but just that tiny slice of hope has got me excited.
I remember my nephew standing in a McD’s zapping people with his imaginary ray gun, he even had his hips moving when the first DAH was released.
We are big fans of destroy all humans and are definitely hopefully this game is not just a rumor.
Anything to do with Cyberpunk
Being a long time Call of Duty fan, im very excited to see Infinity Ward/Activision take the franchise into a more realistic and dark turn with Modern Warfare (2019). Ive been a huge Modern Warfare series fan and literally remember pretending to be sick to play MW3 with my friends. Seeing Infinity Ward go back to its roots and maturing alongside the gamers that played the previous games, really has me excited to play it on PS4!
I am super excited for Animal Crossing for the Nintendo Switch, as I’ve been playing the series for years now. It will be great to be able to play it on a big screen or in handheld mode on the Switch! Thanks Best Buy for running this contest, it sounds awesome!
I am most excited about any news on the PS5 as I have been waiting for the remake of Final Fantasy XII, my daughter is 15 and named after Aerith (Aeries) and we want to play it together, we have wanted a PS4 forever but are saving for a PS5 waiting patiently for FF XII
I’m excited to see Dangerous Driving by Three Fields Entertainment on the PS4!
I’m most excited for the game Anthem announced by Microsoft for the Xbox One for it’s beautiful and realistic graphics and it’s open world gaming.
Im excited for SEKIRO®: SHADOWS DIE TWICE from Activision
I’m really excited about beyond good and evil and anything from ubisoft because I’m a really big fan. Here’s to a great E3 this year although I’m really sad that PlayStation decided not to participate.
Hoping for more information on Luigi’s Mansion 3 for Nintendo Switch at E3. The first one was fun when it came out and hoping for another good game.
I am most excited to see Fable 4 get announced at the Microsoft E3 conference. I have been playing Fable since the first game came out on the original Xbox, and just love the humor of the games.
I am really excited for Microsoft’s announcement on Halo infinite. I’ve always been a big fan of the Halo saga and everything I’ve heard so far is wetting my appetite further.
Last of us 2, not a gamer, but the first one was the best game ever made can’t wait for the next one ☝️
I am looking forward to more about the new Star Wars, as well as the new Avengers games! I’m really hoping they will both be on the PC.
The new Darksiders: Genesia game, by THQ nordic. They announced it on their E3 schedule. The first two games were just incredible but the 3rd one was a bit of a let down. Apparently they are heading in a different direction for the 4th installation and hopefully can bring back its old fans to the franchise! Its extremely exciting to go back into the four horsemen universe.
Death Stranding by Kojima Productions for PS4!!
Hideo Kojima Just announced “days of Hades” as the release date is set. November 8, 2019!
Most excited about the new upcoming reverse compatible PlayStation System!
I’m most excited to get my hands on the new Pokémon sword and shield game for the switch announced by Nintendo . Can’t wait to relive my childhood again !
I am super exited to get into black ops again in the ps4 but I have not been able to save up enough money for it. I was really hoping that I would be able to play fortnite too and play with my friends. I also want to receive the ps4 so my dad can watch Netflix because we don’t have anything to watch it on :)))
As a gears of war fan since gears of war 3, I am most exited for gears of war 5 which was announced by The Coalition in the Xbox keynote E3 back in 2018. Unfortunately i was only able to play gears of war 4 at my friends house because i only owned an xbox 360 but they owned an xbox one. Every time I visited, we would play gears of war 4. So now with the announcement of gears of war 5, I am excited for what this game will bring to the table.
I’m most excited to hear more about the Final fantasy 7 remake from Play Station and Square Enix. It was the first FF game I had ever played on the first console I ever owned. Im so excited to dive back into Midgard.
I’m excited to see what new consoles Microsoft brings to the table, especially they’re game streaming console!
I am most excited about two new zelda games for 2019. The Legend of Zelda Link’s Awakening for Nintendo switch. I know it is a remake but it looks so cute. The other being an indie game with zelda graphics Cadence of Hyrule Crypt of the Necrodancer featuring the legend of zelda. The title is quite the mouthful and even though it’s really not a zelda game (just uses characters etc) I am excited to play it. I hear it’s coming out in June!
I’m most excited for Crystal Dynamics Avengers Project being announced on June 10th. This game in particular is important because my older brother and I didn’t bond over a lot as kids, but one thing we did always play together was Marvel Ultimate Alliance and was a really big influence in our relationship. Hopefully when this game comes out, I can get him back on board… need to get him a newer console than a Xbox 360!
Im looking forward to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild for Nintendo Switch
I am very excited about the Psvr game “Blood and Truth”, from SIE London Studios. For a chance to immerse yourself in a drama driven shooter game, makes rainy days a whole lot more fun!!!
