The xbox peoject xcloud
I am most excited to relive the Halo Masterchief collection for the PC. I grew up playing Halo (Bungie/Mircrosoft) on the Xbox and the Xbox 360. I am looking forward to Microsoft’s Halo Collection because my brother and I could play again as he switched to computer gaming many years back.
I am excited to hear about the new Star Wars game. But I am also really excited to see what is going to becoming out this new year on the PS4 and Xbox One!
The new Pokemon sword is definitely something I am keeping my eye on. I have yet to be disappointed and can’t wait to see what’s coming. All I need is a switch and I’m good.
I’m really excited about Call of Duty: Modern Warfare announcement by Activision and I can’t wait to hear more about it. I really loved the old ones and I have lost interest in the latest ones. I played so much at COD MW2 and MW3. I was feeling like I was a soldier in the battlefield
I’m excited for Pokémon to be released for the Switch, it’ll be nostalgic and give me something to binge play!
Nintendo announcing Pokémon Sword and Shield for the Nintendo Switch. I’ve played every Pokémon since red/blue, and have wanted a proper console Pokémon since then, but they’ve never released one until now!
Final Fantasy 7 Remake by Sony/Square Enix
The most iconic game for me during my childhood and gaming life period! I would love to see how they can take the graphics of a game that change the industry back then to new heights with today’s technology!
Definitely Avengers by Square Enix! Reason: it’s an Avengers game by Square Enix!
I personally am looking forward to the legend of Zelda, links awakening. I grew up with the game but still need a switch
Looking forward to We Happy Few on Xbox
I’m looking forward to modern warfare for PS4 from activision and infinity ward. I’ve always been a fan of call of duty and when I saw the game trailer I got tinglesz
Very excited about death stranding
Sqaure Enix will be talking about a new Marvel Avengers game, this will definately be the highlight of E3 for me! I grew up watching super hero movies and playing super hero video games on my Super Nintendo so it is a big nostalgia effect for me. Can’t wait to hear all about it and everything else E3 brings to light!
Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled for the PS 4 will be released in June and I am anxious to play it. It looks like fun and I am in need of a new fun racing game.
I’m excited to see more “The Last of Us 2” gameplay from naughty dog and see how Halo Infinite looks from 343 industries.
I’m stoked for EA’s game Fallen Jedi cause Star Wars is dope and playing Star Wars is tight
I’m very excited for Doom Eternal by Bethesda / ID. I grew up on ID shooters – they just feel perfect! Can’t wait to face the newest iteration of the Arch Vile!
Pokemon Sword and Shield! Can’t wait to see more info, the fire starter looks lit! lol
I’m most excited about Final Fantasy VII and getting to relive the moment Cloud cross dressed, I’m really hoping they kept that scene in there. Along with the mini-games. I played that game when I was 13 years old on PC and remember buying one of the first graphics cards that came out for PC at the time.
I’m most exited about the FF7 remake from sony square enix. The original was great, hoping that the new one builds on it.
I am looking forward to the Zelda spin-off, Cadence of Hyrule, and the rumored sequel to Breath of the Wild for the Nintendo Switch. Anything Zelda. Or Mario Bros.
2019 gaming announcement I am most excited for is the Avengers game from Square Enix and Eidos. Announcement was made by Square Enix and I am most excited for it because it is a game based on the Avengers, which is my favorite!!
I can’t wait for Pokémon Sword and Shield from The Pokémon company and Nintendo. I’ve been waiting for as long as I can remember for Pokémon to come to a home console.

I’m very excited for the new version of Animal Crossing coming for the Nintendo Switch. Date not yet announced but coming!!! I’m so looking forward to spending quality time with Tom Nook, Isabelle, and the gang. I’d love to win this prize – thanks for the opportunity.
I’m excited to see the ps5 from playstation. I’m interested in seeing where the future of consoles is going, and I heard a rumor (whether it’s true of not) that it will be backwards compatibile, so I don’t have to rebuy games!
SO STOKED FOR A NEW HALO INFINITE
I am excited for the future of gaming. No matter which company is the “leader” in gaming consoles. Although a lot of companies have pulled out of this years E3, maybe next year there will be bigger hype for the next generation of consoles.
Metroid 4. I have long awaited this game. I hope more details are revealed soon concerning its release. Every iteration has impressed me on each platform. The storyline puzzles and gameplay are always captivating.
Love what XBOX has coming up this year and super excited for the New Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order. Trailer looks insane and hopefully they make the campaign a lot better thanks Battlefront 2!
I’m very excited for the NBA 2k20 publish by 2k Sports and develop by Visual Concepts. Im very excited who will be the cover of the game and most importantly this would be the biggest free agency in the league. I wanna know where the biggest superstar end up such as the likes of Kevin Durant, Kawhi Leonard, Klay Thompson,Kyrie Irving, Jimmy Butler among others. Will Durant end up with Irving playing in the Madison Square Garden or will the Klaw Kawhi Leonard stay with the only NBA Canadian Team Toronto Raptors or team up with Durant at Los Angeles Clippers? Will Lebron get his wishes and have a Robin to be his partner in crime? There is a lot of questions and intrigues need to be answered. As an avid fan of 2k basketball, this would be an interesting year and cant wait what will 2k developers add exciting to the game. I hope they will include the 2019 FIBA World Cup in the gameplay, just a wishful thinking.
I’m most excited about Halo Infinite from Xbox.
I’m going to be honest with you guys, but I’m eagerly awaiting for the next game in the Armored Core series from FromSoftware. It has been so long since there is a build-your-mecha game with interesting story lines and bosses that will take hours to defeat (think Sekiro/Souls/Bloodborne that was made by the same developer). I know that there’s Daemon X Machina in development but nothing beats the original from the original devs. Make it for PS/PC just because of the type-A controller set-up.
I’m looking forward to the Xbox event primarily. Rumours of a new Fable game have me excited as well as possibly more footage of the new Halo game. Can’t wait to see what the other companies have to show wether it be new consoles, peripherals, VR. Exciting year to come.
Here are the most anticipated games / announcements I’m most looking forward to at this years E3 (in no particular order)
Cyberpunk 2077
Gears 5
Last of Us 2
Jedi: Fallen Order
Microsoft Conference
Ubisoft Conference
Ghost Recon Breakpoint
Bethesda Conference
Elder Scrolls Online: Elsweyr
Here’s hoping for a great E3 2019!!!

I can’t wait for the new Mario Maker 2 game on the Switch by Nintendo! I held out of the Wii U version and I’m so excited to play this with my sister across the country 🙂
I’m most excited for Death Stranding. It’s rare that new and unique games are made with interesting world building and mechanics!!! Plus Del Toro in a video game is so cool!
my favourite stuff is star wars so I am going with EAs Jedi: Fallen order cause I always wanted to be one and this lets me be one
I’m looking forward to Wolfenstein: Youngblood on PS4, developed by MachineGames and Arkane Studios and published by Bethesda Softworks. I’m a big fan of this first shooter game, I have several releases on PC and PS4. I’m sure this latest release will be awesome.
Mario Maker 2 announcement. The best game by Nintendo. I’m excited for all the new features!
Oculus Quest is super intriguing, so much potential!
I am excited for the new Call Of Duty Modern Warfare on Xbox by Activison. This game promises to be amazing and can only serve to get a whole bunch of people more interested in the amazing gaming franchise. Call of Duty is pioneering here.
I’d like to hear more about a new Zelda or Mario game for the Nintendo switch Presented by Nintendo reason being is we need something new and fresh that is not a port and I’ve been enjoying Nintendo since I was a child since the very first Nintendo console release.
Pokemon Sword and Shield!
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”.
I’m looking forward to Halo Infinite and the return to traditional halo gameplay
I’m really excited for gearbox software’s borderlands 3. Almost everything about this series is great. I’m looking forward to see if it lives up to the hype.
