  1. Special thanks to “Martin Renaud Editor in Chief“ for giving this opportunity to us with Best Buy”. Nintendo prize Pack#1: why? B/c childhood memories and as much as I love Xbox/PS/PC, the classics always win over my heart & endearment. Legend of Zelda steals my heart bc, when I got my first N64 and Zelda first came out, I had a gaming theatre night where I condensed all the gameplay into a video projector I borrowed from school and hosted a Zelda animated movie night. “Xbox game pass announcement” why? Best price & greatest bc it’s simply affordable. Thank you goes out to “Microsoft Canada” & “Microsoft Cooperation” for their continual leadership and mentorship that promote quality releases for quality price. Specifically and clearly I have stated, genuinely and honestly I put in the time and dedication, respectively I want to thank all who are in charge of this opportunity, “stay blessed”.

  2. I’m excited every year for E3. I feel with all the different types of systems, this has to be the most competitive one of this year with game contents and functionality. One thing I’m looking forward to are the releases for fire emblem on the Nintendo switch . I can’t wait to hear reviews on what has the switch console has in store for us in the future. However I’m looking forward to the remake of final fantasy XII as it has been long over due although it may not be able to come out for the console I have. I honestly grew up with Pokémon my entire life and I would choose Nintendo despite the other competitions.

  3. Gears of War 5 from the Coalition is the game I’m looking forward to the most. My first game on Xbox was Gears of War by Cliff Blezinski and since then it’s still my favourite series.

  4. Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Deluxe Edition (Xbox One) developed by Respawn Entertainment and published by Electronic Arts. The history of the game will be related with the current Star Wars series post Episode III – Revenge of the Sith.

  5. Death Standing by Kojima studios. Lots of new things in the trailer, but still so much to be explained!

  6. Square Enix: Final Fantasy VII Remake. That is one RPG that I’ve been waiting to hear from since its last E3 announcement. I never played the original FF7, but i played all the other FFs. I decided to wait for the remake to experience the reimagining of the game.

  7. Final Fantasy 7 Remake. My favourite game of all time. Can not wait for any information about the game.

  8. Crash Team Racing by Activision because it will bring back memories of the 90’s on the PS1. Spent a lot of hours with my late best friend playing it.

  9. Final fantasy 14 shadowbringers absolutely love the world that Square Enix has created. Each expansion just adds more content to an already impressive game!

  10. I’m looking for the new NAVI gpu from AMD. They announce it at Computex and they announced their presence at E3. I think it’s an important announcement since it could be more affordable than other GPU companies and it would be present in the new PlayStation.

  11. I am super excited for the Star Ward Jedi: Fallen Order announced by Respawn Games because I love the Star Wars franchise and I have ever since I was little. One of the first games I ever really played was Star Wars Battlefront with my older brother and ever since I have loved exploring my way throug Star Wars games. I can’t wait for this one to come out!

  12. I am most excited for a fun new Pokémon game (Pokemon sword and Shield) for the switch from Nintendo! After playing let’s go pikachu I’ve just been waiting for a new fun Pokémon game for the Switch.

  13. My name is Peter Gallagher and I am such a big Star Wars fan that is why I am so excited for Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Deluxe Edition (Xbox One) I enjoy Playing Star Wars and would love the game for sure. I have loved Star Wars ever since I was introduced to it and will love to see the new challenges. I would love to win the system first as I only have a Nintendo and would love to have an XBOX

  14. Hi my name is crystal …. I bought the switch as soon as it came out !!! Love it …. have so many titles already! But I’m most excited for my next purchase yoshi crafted world!! I played the original yoshi island on the NES I’m the 80’s lol pumped to play … good luck to everyone in the contest …. switch fan for life !!!!!

  15. Looking forward to Gears of War 5 from The Coalition, it’s been a while since Gears of War was relevant in the gaming community and I hope this game brings back the attention the series deserves. My first Xbox game ever was Gears of War and till this day it’s my favourite.

  16. The Microsoft press conference has me the most excited. I really hope to hear more about Halo infinite or even some Halo 6 news! The Xbox 360 and the halo series got me through some very tuff times in my life and being able to escape the real world and pretend to be a superhuman soldier was a great escape.

  17. I’m excited for cyberpunk 2077 by CD project red it’s a game that looks really immersive and there attention to detail is what is so important to me

    • Im excited for Watch dogs 3 (video game about hacking) By Ubisoft. I Still remember when the first one came out. Im into tech and all that stuff so it hold a special place in my heart.

  18. I’m most excited for death stranding on PlayStation. I love kojima and want more games from him.

  19. Final Fantasy 7 remake (Sony/Square Enix). For me FF7 on Playstation 1 was a huge wow moment with the 3D graphics at the time. Being a huge fan of jrpgs on Snes… seeing him with his buster sword in 3D was the best.

    New game announcement is Square Enix’s Avengers game. I’ve always been a huge superhero/X-men fan. So seeing a company like Square Enix make a game excites me so much. I need an upgrade to my original ps4 500gb. Can’t wait!! Would love to play both of these on stream.

  20. I’m excited about E3 in general but one thing I’m excited to see is Borderlands 3! I’ve been patiently waiting for its release ever since Pre-Sequel and with Gearbox Software announcing that they’ll be showing more of it has got me pumped, not to mention the Borderlands 2 DLC which was the game that got me into the franchise. Can’t wait to get it ASAP to start another co-op adventure with my brother, from BD2 to Pre-sequel, and now finally to BD3!

  21. I’m really excited to play Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, the newest instalment in the Call of Duty franchise for the PS4 by Activision and Infinity Ward. I’ve been a fan of the franchise for years, with the Modern Warfare series being my favourites by far. I’m looking forward to playing a Call of Duty game set in present time and that is also powered by a new engine.

  22. I am most excited to hear more news on final fantasy 7 remake reason is I grew up playing the final fantasy series so when they announced the remake of 7 I couldn’t wait till it comes out

  23. My name is Joshua Persaud I am really excited for Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Deluxe Edition (Xbox One) I enjoy Star Wars ever since I was introduced to it and will love to see the new challenges I would be put up against in this new edition!!!!! I would be sooo thankful and blessed to be able to win this I will be the happiest ever !

  24. I’m most excited for the Pokemon Sword & Shield game by Nintendo. I grew up playing Pokemon from the original game boy version in elementary school so I’m very excited to see what this new game will be like!

  25. I actually heard there might be a remake of PS3 GHOSTBUSTERS game for the PS4.

    This is both exciting and interesting since its a PS3 “remastered” game? Why “remaster” and What will it look like and play like?

  26. I’m excited to hear more about Cyberpunk 2077 from CD Projekt Red. After seeing the first couple trailers the game looks amazing with a huge open world and immersive storytelling.

  27. To me, I’d say Microsoft talking about Masterchief Collections coming to PC. One of my mates was a Halo/Xbox guy and the rest of us were playing COD or something on PC. So now that it’s on it’s way for PC, I’m hella hyped to try this out.

  28. Îam very excited to get COD madern warfare, it will
    Bring back memories from the prime of Call of duty games!!
    Cant wait to play it with my friends

  29. I’m looking forward to Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order for Playstation 4 by Respawn entertainment. I’m a huge Star Wars fan and I love playing standalone story driven games like uncharted or Assassin’s Creed rather than multiplayer focused ones.

  30. I am most excited about the upcoming release of the new Call of Duty Modern Warfare on Xbox from Activision! It’s my favourite game to play with my boyfriend & we can’t wait to see what new elements are brought to the game as well as what has stayed the same. It’s also really amazing to see the female cast member being represented as a focal point of the game! I can’t wait to play only a few months to go!

  31. I’m excited for the upcoming Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield (will be released by Game Freak/Nintendo) games! I grew up playing the games as an elementary student. The series will always have a place in my heart!

  32. Halo Infinite because it looks like 343 industries are being the Halo Franchise back to what made the first 3 Halo (and halo reach) so great and still bring new elements for a new generation

  33. My sole purpose for buying a Sony PS4 is for FF7 square Enix remake. That game defined my childhood and I absolutely can’t wait to play it!!

  34. I’m excited for call of duty modern warfare by activision on Xbox! The game looks like it’s going back to its roots and it seems like they might have actually listened to the community on this one! Super excited 🙂

  35. I can’t wait for the rumoured open-world game that Fromsoft might announce. Apparently George R. R. Martin consulted for it and I’m hyped to enter another one of their dense and challenging worlds, especially after the recent end of Game Of Thrones and the culmination of my playthrough of Sekiro.

  36. I am most excited for news regarding a new Half Life game- by Valve. It may not come, but each year, I remain hopeful.

  37. I am most excited for the new Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare on Xbox One by Activision and Infinity Ward. There are many things to be excited about this title. For example the new in-game engine,multiplayer, co-op mode, and something many have been waiting for is cross-play. It will bring many people back to the golden days of Call Of Duty. Can’t wait to attend the midnight release.

  38. The announcement that has me the most excited this year is Super Mario Maker 2 from Nintendo. Had a ton of with the original game on Wii U and all of the new features they’ve added are really adding to the possibilities for level creators. Plus the story mode looks great.

  39. I can’t wait for the rumoured open-world game that Fromsoft might announce. Apparently George R. R. Martin consulted for it and I’m hyped to enter another one of their dense and challenging worlds.

  40. I am excited for the new Call Of Duty Modern Warfare on Xbox by Activison. This is a big leap for the the next generation of gaming as it will be cross platform gaming. I have been playing Call of Duty for a very long time.

  41. Super Mario Maker 2
    Nintendo
    I grew up playing super Mario bros. And would love the chance to build my own courses on the Nintendo switch

  42. I’m really interested to play revival games like Crash Bandicoot and Spyro. Since Ps2, I never had any updated console to play on or any Gaming PC.

  43. I’m most exited for Jedi: Fallen order because I’ve loved Star Wars ever since I was a child and there hasn’t been a good Star Wars game in a long time so I hope that EA nails this one. Can’t wait to play it on PS4
