Im really excited about the game Cyberpunk 2077’s announcement. I’ve been watching the trailers and news for the game and it seems so interesting. Its by CD Projekt, a company that made one of the best series of rpg games (The Witcher 1,2,3)
I’m looking forward to Dangerous Driving by Three Fields Entertainment on XBox since I’m a huge driving gamer and this sounds like a great game, plus I’m curious as to any announcements about Microsoft’s cloud gaming XCloud
I’m really excited about Microsoft’s Cloud and Streaming but I would like to get an upgrade from my wii to a switch my cousin has one and my favourite game has to be legend of Zelda of super smash bros
I really want a ps4 because I am a hockey player and I really want to play NHL19 because all my friends have it
Honestly seeing true cross platform is going to be great! Being able to play with friends regardless of console preference is going to change everything!
Really looking forward to some news from LittleBigPlanet series creator Media Molecule’s about dream. The idea looks interesting and something I really wanna get my hands on
I’m really excited to see the Nintendo announcement. I’m interested to see what happens with the new Pokémon sleep, Sword and Shield, and other games.
What im excited for is for the nintendo switch cheaper version and the reason its important for me is because ive loved nintendo forever and im glad for the success of the switch and seeing that a less expensive switch might come out will increase the playerbase for a console that is great in my opinion
I’m looking forward to Nintendo revealing more about Daemon x Machina.
I’m on the hype train for Final Fantasy VII Remake from Square Enix on PS 4. When I moved from USA to Malaysia, gaming was an anchor of sorts. It was a huge cultural shift, but I was too busy playing the original Final Fantasy VII to even notice.
looking forward to Nintendo announcements since their games are so fun to play
I’m excited to get a glimpse of the new PS5. I’ve been PS fan for years. I also would like to see Marvels Avengers game. My kids and I love playing superhero games together.
I am so excited to hear what nintendo switch has to offer in its future games I have wanted the switch console, but hold because it was a tad bit out of my budget. I love all smash games and Zelda game they are the guys that actually got me studying game programing. In addition I am excited to hear about the tease for the new halo so amped
We’re a big gaming family and so the collaboration announcement between Microsoft and Sony in the middle of May was very exciting for us because we focus on Xbox and Nintendo. This union will give us the chance to explore the PS universe. And winning a prize pack from #BestBuyCA is the perfect way to get started. Thanks for the opportunity! #E3
Cyberpunk 2077. Can’t wait to see what CDPR can do. Loved their Witcher games.
Sony giving out more details on the playstation 5 would be really exciting.
Cant Wait for Microsoft and Sony announcements regarding cloud game and streaming services. It would be nice to learn more about Sony and Xbox teaming up for cross platform play as well.
I am most excited the announcement Nintendo made about a cheaper Nintendo Switch. Systems are so expensive and they change so often.
I am very excited about the announcement of the Sony PlayStation 5 (PSV / PS5). It’s very important to be because I have been a long-time Sony PlayStation fan and my last console was a PlayStation 2 (PS2)! I want to see what Sony has to offer in order to start gaming again!
I am excited for yesterday’s announcement of apex legends getting more content, this game is very great and needs to excel I can’t wait to see what they have in store for there e3 announcement .
I’m really Thrilled for the Playstation 5 , the ps4 presented oustanding graphics and a whopping great arsenal of games that really represented crisp console gaming. It’s really significant on my part because I have been since my childhood liked and have never been disappointed in consoles of sony. From playstation 1 up to the current ps4 , i most likely have no remaining consoles of the past gens but all of them where part of my childhood and is still continuing to be part of my life. Adamantily the ps5 will be even a greater , crisper breath of gaming. That’s why it’s so important to me.
Really excited for the release of PS5 !!!! Love that it is going to be backwards compatible! Huge PlayStation since the release of PlayStation 1 .
Everybody should be glued to the announcement from infinity ward regarding the latest instalment of call of duty modern warfare, the rumours of cross-play across consoles is a leap forward in the industry itself. I am super excited to hear how they surpassed the limitations that have held many back before whether it been the hardware, software coding or the share imbalance of external factors like bandwidth.
They lead the race in terms of gameplay innovation and continue to set the standard of what’s to come.
Super excited for sure! Would love to get my hands on a PlayStation4 Pro and ditch my old gaming laptop. Bestbuy has the goods! Infinity ward has the game! Sony, Microsoft and PC’s alike have the hardware! Time to game!
I’m excited for an anouncment on a new Xbox releasing soon. Hopefully there’s some more news on it at E3!
I’m really looking forward to the new Star Wars: Fallen Order game and the Battlefield V new dlc all from EA. I have grown up loving the Star Wars universe and fell in love with the battlefield franchise with battlefield one. I have always loved the 1914-1970’s war games.
I am eagerly awaiting the announcement of the PlayStation 5. All of the rumours about performance have got me more excited than I have been about a game console since PS2! I believe they are going to have an amazing set of exclusives!
I can’t wait to hear about the PS5 and the release date/features. It is a really cool time for gaming right now with PC gaming becoming such a big player and the switch coming out last year. I’m looking forward to see how Sony steps up!

The announcement for the PS5 for sure I want to see what and how the graphics also how it runs games. The game I most looking forward to on e3 its the last of us 2 I can’t wait till I get some type of release for it and a realease date one other think for e3 is any details for destiny 2 or any look at destiny 3.

The playstation 5 by Sony, would be great, we really love playstation, still have playstation 3, and would love to see what the new one offers!!!
There are rumours of an RDR 2 Story DLC, I am hoping R* will have a reveal on e3. And I am also excited to see more 7th gen games ported for the Nintendo Switch, I also wish I could see The Witcher 3 for the Switch.
I just bought a Switch finally, so anything Nintendo related will be great! Animal Crossing hopefully!
Square Enix’s Avengers game. Hoping it has more of a MCU feel than a comic book feel.
The announcement I’m most excited about for E3 is learning more about the game Daemon x Machina on the Nintendo Switch. It’s been a while since we had a mech action game!
I’m the most excited for the Nintendo Pokémon sword and shield games on the Nintendo switch because I’ve grown up playing all of the Pokémon games from the beginning
I really love the news about the new Microsoft Xbox and hints of a new halo
I’m really excited about the release of the new Halo: The Master Chief Collection on PC from 343 Industries, Splash Damage, and Ruffian Games. I have been playing Halo games for more than 15 years and am anxiously waiting to try this game out and relive the amazing memories.
Looking forward to see the advances in these platforms and how the games become more and more life like
