  1. I’m most excited about the outer worlds which is said to release later this year. It’s made by obsidian, the original devs of fallout, and from what I can tell from the gameplay it’s essentially a sci fi fallout style rpg is pretty much a dream come true for me.

  2. I’m excited for Pokemon Sword and Shield! The Switch is my first Nintendo console I bought myself, and so I’ve never had to experience of playing a core Pokemon game on my own device. The trailer looks beautiful and the starters are cute – all in all, I am looking forward to what’s in store for us!

  9. So I got a message from Best Buy and they were doing this giveaway, and the one I’m very intrigued is the X-Box One bundle. It’s important because I’ve always wanted to get an X Box One but I couldn’t afford it. But the truth is that I don’t need it. But it would be nice to win a free console- Microsoft 2019

  10. I am very excited for Monster Hunter World: Iceborne! Capcom announced it will be released September 9th 2019, I am excited because of how much I have gotten into Monster Hunter over the past year and so. Excited to see more Iceborne content at E3 as well. I am so glad to have met the friends and communities I have met because of Monster Hunter.

I am currently borrowing a PS4 so it would be very nice to have my own console for when Iceborne is released!

  19. I’m so excited for all of E3, but I’m mostly excited about Animal Crossing for the Nintendo Switch. I grew up playing Animal Crossing, so to have it on the Switch will be amazing because I’ll be able to take it anywhere or play it on the big screen!

  20. what I am most excited about in 2019 is the announcement of the new Xbox(Scarlet) console by Microsoft and all it`s qualities, also the new PS5 and how it will match up to Scarlet. I have always been a fan of both consoles and really enjoy the qualities of the 2 machines, so I would like to use this opportunity to thank all involved in making these 2 consoles without you guys we wouldn`t be able to geek out all night playing our games so thanks and to E3 for making this time even more exciting giving us a show and announcements of what is to come and what we can expect of our most favorite games. That`s what I am most excited about, can`t wait too what Microsoft and Sony have up their sleeves for the most exciting and coolest console`s to date. this is a very exciting time for gamers

  21. Super excited about Square Enix’s The Avengers Project! Just perfect timing after this year’s Endgame!

  23. I’m excited for ubisoft’s Assassin’s creed odyssey. I’ve played every game in the series and can’t wait to start a new adventure!

  24. Patiently awaiting an announcement for the future of Playstation PS5. I have been PlayStation all the way and have owned all the consoles. It’s been a good friend to me. actually the online gaming has gave me friendships with people I’ve never met in real life, and we have all played together for years now. Trying new games together, finding out ways to overcome obstacles in games, fun times every time I turn on the console.

  25. I’m most exited for news on next gen consoles because new generations of consoles have always marked huge advancement in gaming.

  26. Last of us 2 100%

    Can’t wait for E3 though love getting all the new news about future games and projects! I am going to be watching the stream all day long

  27. I’m excited to hear from Microsoft about the new x box console as to learn about the next generation of gaming. Also to hear if there maybe a Fable 4!!!!

  28. Last of us 2 100%.

    But I am super excited for the whole E3 to see what new news we get. Can’t wait! Will be watching the stream all day long.

  29. I can’t wait to hear more about the new Call of Duty game by Infinity Ward! Call of Duty 4: Mordern Warfare is my favourite FPS game of all time. So I’m extremely excited to see it reimagined with improved graphics, sound design, and more. I’m looking forward to getting more information on the game at E3!

  30. I’m entering cause I’d like to win a PlayStation 4 . I have a PS3 and always wanted a ps4 but don’t have a lot of time so think I wouldn’ t be wise to purchase one. I like the PlayStation announcements!

  31. Im looking forward to more info regarding the ff7 remake! Square Enix announced the game years ago, and there has been very little info released so far. This E3 will hopefully be the big one for us ff7remake fans! FF7 was a pivotal game for pretty much everyone who played games in the 90s, which explains the level of hype. I really can’t wait to see more! I haven’t been this excited for E3 in a long time!

  32. I’m most excited for CD Projekt Red’s Cyberpunk 2077 and Nintendo’s Luigi’s Mansión 3. The Witcher 3 was amazing, so I am expecting the same from Cyberpunk, and Luigi’s Mansion has been a favourite of mine since the GameCube.

  33. CD Projekt Red’s Game, Cyberpunk 2077 for sure. I grew up playing the Witcher series and can’t wait for the studio to build a futuristic world for me to immerse my self in and explore. So pumped.

  34. I am most excited for the release of the Final Fantasy VII remake by Square Enix!
    The graphics look amazing, i can’t wait to see the game unfold with the new graphics. I’ve been waiting for years!!!

  35. I am most excited for the new PlayStation console. Sony has taken a huge leap forward in gaming, especially in multiplayer styled games and it’s my favourite device/console to play on. I love that they’ve made the online experience so much better and that I can play and stream my favourite games all at the same time through the console easily.

  36. After the recent announcement, I’m excited to play Death Stranding, from Kojima Productions on Sony’s PlayStation 4. An incredible looking game from a legendary game designer, on an awesome console… winning a PS4 pro to play it on would be a nice bonus! 😉

  37. Ubisoft and the game Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint. I’m a fan of the Tom Clancy games so I’m excited about this one.

  38. Any announcement about Cyberpunk 2017 from CD Projekt Red is pure gold. I use to play Shadowrun role playing and I also love the Witcher. I can’t wait to play this game

  39. Whether it is a new game or some new revolution in gaming industry, I always been excited to get my hands on it. As far as 2019 is concerned there has been some great announcements made, but the one and only have amazed me is “Stadia” i
    yes you heard it right. Stadia by google is cloud gaming service has ability to play 4k games at 60fps and at most affordable bandwidth 30 mbps which will save some money.
    Why would you be waiting for console launch or what its features gonna be when you can stream games over multiple screens anywhere, so the future of gaming is not phisical hard drive for sure. No worries about switching consoles no worries about hardware performance, it will be only expectations for how good the game is.

  40. Definitely waiting for Pokemon Sword and Shield from Nintendo. I’m curious to see how they made the games suitable for both veteran players and players who have only played Let’s Go.

  41. I’m very much excited for The Outer Worlds by Obsidian Entertainment! A new game from the creators of the Fallout universe? Made by the company that gave us Fallout: New Vegas? Yes please!

  42. I’m curious about the new games that Microsoft is going to announce. They’ve made some good ones, and the bringing of the master chief collection to Steam will be great too!
