I am SO EXCITED for Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black order. As a fan of playing the first two, I cant wait to see what the 3rd one brings, whether its new marvel heroes and villains, scenery, graphics, etc. And its nintendo switch exclusive!! Being able to play it hand held too will just make the experience so much better. July 19th is the set release date, i got my fingers crossed on that switch package!!!
Looking forward to that remake of FF7!
Definitely want to hear more details about what the next-Gen console for PlayStation will look like!
NHL 20 and the PS5. Announced by Sony.
It’s gotta be The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening! Having played the original one on gameboy, I can’t wait to see what changes Nintendo will bring us in this new gaming era! Nintendo said this game would be released in 2019, and it seems that there is no a better time to officially announce it at E3. Exciting!
I’m really excited the reveal of ps5 at e3
Super excited about the next generation of consoles from Microsoft. The Xbox has always been a staple in my gaming regiment and allows me to connect with friends and family when you can’t always get together with them. Also excited for any major PC gaming releases as I just got a new unit and excited to test it out on graphically demanding games!
I am excited to hear all the new releases for Xbox. I heard a new gears 5 coming out and looking to see and hear more about that. I want to hear more about the ps5 and if Xbox will counter with anything or stay put for now.
I am most excited about Microsoft’s press conference. The announcement of new hardware and hopefully some better first party titles.
I need to get a PS4 so bad, so many great titles coming up. But I am truly excited for the final fantasy 7 remake. Final fantasy 7 has been one of my top favourites from the first time playing it. Also really looking forward to pokemon sword/shield and Metroid prime 4 on the switch! Specially with the other new things Nintendo is putting out for the pokeverse!
I’m looking forward to hear about gears 5, this is my Favorite video game franchise ever. When they announce the release date I will be pre ordering this game.
I’m really looking forward to “Groundhog Day: Like Father Like Son” published by Sony Pictures Virtual Reality on PSVR later this year.
A sequel to a classic existential comedy filled with gameplay/narrative loop possibilities in VR? Sign me up!
Definitely a Final Fantasy Seven update. We have been waiting so long, and often doubted it would even happen, I am always excited for new information.
Most excited for Zelda links awakening!
I absolutely love the Serious Sam games, so I am really hoping that Croteam or Devolver Digital announces the release date for Serious Sam 4.
Sims 4 Legacy Edition, finally! (32 bit version)
I absolutely love the Serious Sam games, so I am really hoping that Croteam or Devolver Digital announces the release date for Serious Sam 4: Planet Badass.

I’m excited about Sony’s PS5 announcement, it’s been along time since Sony and MS have come out with completely new consoles. I can’t wait to see what Sony has done to it’s new console to garner it a new designation and not just an upgrade to the PS4!
I’m super excited about Nintendo’s Mario Maker 2. Between the N64 and the Switch I haven’t had my own console, so I’m excited to play all the new levels from all the new games that people will be making.
I’m looking forward to more info about the next generation of consoles.
Cyberpunk 2077!
Next generation gaming consoles from Sony and Microsoft
I’m excited for news of Pokemon Sword and Shield by Nintendo, I’ve been playing since ruby and sapphire and loves the series since. I’m expecting and hoping for a new smash dlc character reveal during Nintendo’s E3. I hope that they also announce the rumored “Switch Pro” and the “Switch Lite” for 2019 this year. I’m also looking forward to Nintendo’s The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening for the Switch coming this year. I hope that they announce Pikmin 4 for the switch because it’s such a relaxing and easy game to play since I played Pikmin 2 and 3 before. I hope more people get into it too. Other things I’m excited about is COD: Modern Warfare by Activision, Bayonetta 3 by Platinum Games, Project Scarlet (New Xbox?) from Microsoft, the Final Fantasy 7 remake by Square Enix, more Monster Hunter World: Iceborne DLC news from Capcom, the Avengers Project by Crystal Dynamics, Fire Emblem: Three Houses by Nintendo, Shantae 5 by Wayforward Games, and hopefully an HD remake of No More Heroes 1 and 2 by Grasshopper Manufacture and announcement of No More Heroes 3.
I’m excited for Call of Duty Modern Warfare (2019). The reason why I am excited for this game is because the graphics look amazing, there is going to be a campaign, and Captain Price is back! I believe the manufacturers who made the announcement were Sony and Infinity Ward. 2019 will be a good year for the gaming industry!
I’m anxiously awaiting the new consoles from both XBox and PS. Can’t wait to see the next generation
Looking forward to the new PlayStation announcements
Days Gone! Seriously – riding a Harley through legions of bad a$$ zombies. Huge map with tons of awesome challenges and stellar graphics. Who doesn’t want to wipe up the floor with some zombie mobs?? Looks like a killer title to me.
I’m interested in the new xbox console.
I can’t wait for the new Legend of Zelda for the Switch. I played the original on my original Nintendo and would love to play the new one with my daughter!
I absolutely love the Serious Sam games, so I am really hoping for Croteam or Devolver Digital to announce a release date for Serious Sam 4: Planet Badass.
I’m super excited to see what Microsoft is going to announce for the next Halo game! They’ve been keeping details really tight but they’ve confirmed splitscreen is coming back! I’m so amped to play this new iteration because it seems like they’re trying to take what the fans want to see and bringing it to life.
Always most excited to see what Sony has planned for their consoles, been using units since PS2 can’t wait to see what the future holds. The new Jedi game published by EA
So excited for Cyberpunk 2077. CD Projekt Red did so well with the Witcher 3 that I am excited to see how they make the open world alive in the world of the future.
I am most excited for nintendo’s new switch games coming out like Zelda : Links awakening because it’ll bring back many childhood memories
I am very excited for the Pokémon sword and shield Nintendo switch game announcement happening in June! The teaser trailers and starter Pokémon released caught my attention and I find them adorable so I am sure the game will be very interesting. I have been a long time fan of Nintendo and their recent work I have enjoyed.
Sorry didnt realize comment had to be more in depth. Im most excited for Blizzard to release WoW Classic on PC. I love the community aspect of the old version of WoW, it really is a more social oriented version of the game. You meet people, become friends and perhaps continue your adventure together, or maybe they steal your loot and you become mortal enemies. The possibilites are endless!
I am very excited for the PS5 to come because I’ve had every single play station so far and can’t wait to get the next one
Definitely intrigued by the November release of Death Stranding on ps4 by Kojima Productions. Hideo Kojima has always been able to marry awesome stories with great gameplay.
Can’t wait for Death Stranding, made by Kojima Productions for PS4 this November. It looks to break the mould and give an extremely unique experience, I love different, unique cutting edge games,,, can’t wait for this!!!
Excited to see what the newest PlayStation is going to look like.
I’m so excited to finally hear more about the Marvel’s The Avengers game by Square Enix. We haven’t seen anything other than a teaser since 2017 and, with the MCU ending it’s first saga this year, it couldn’t be coming at a perfect time.
I really hope to learn more about Google Stadia and the next fighter coming to Nintendo’s Super Smash Bros Ultimate!
Can’t wait to see gameplay for Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order!
Final fantasy 7 remake trailer from sony.Game was a big part of my childhood. Cant wait to summon the knights of the roundtable in full HD.
Very curious about Alphabet’s Google Stadia Project. Specially the hardware aspect. So far it seems like any device capable of running Chrome is Stadia compatible. It would certainly open the door for very affordable 4K custom made gaming rigs.
