PS4 final fantasy remake!!! I have played all the games in the series and have replayed VII multiple times. Both the game and console is important to me, the game brings great childhood nostalgia and I have always been a diehard PlayStation fan
Honestly I am really excited about the new Marvel Avengers game by Square Enix. Its about time that superhero games are given the importance and attention they deserve.
Excited for everything E3 has to offer! It’s my favourite time of year!
Looking most forward to Final Fantasy 7 remake announced for PS4. Was one of the first games I played when younger.
Thé Avengers projet by Square Enix. Im a big fan of game made or sponsored by SE as all FInal Fantasy and Octopath Travelers!
Really excited for the new lineup of games that Nintendo is offering. Especially Animal Crossing!
Astral Chain for the Nintendo Switch console. The promising gameplay has my attention, but the Sci-Fi atmosphere they build looked astonishing as we have little action games of this genre that I thoroughly enjoy. Hopefully, E3 will show a little more of this game and meet my expectations.
Hi, im always exited for the announcement of the next fifa. hoping they make it even more enjoyable this year.
I am exited for “Ready or Not” from VOID interactive and also “Halo: The Master Chief Collection.” I like realistic shooters so the upcoming swat like game will be interesting. I think realistic games are more respectful to real soldiers and police because it gives a more accurate and brutal depiction of conflict instead of making it only a fun and mindless game. It gives a better understanding and appreciation for what they do. I am also looking towards Halo because I played combat evolved many years ago and never got to complete the rest of the series. There is also the nostalgia factor in general. As well, maybe this time I will be able to actually aim in multiplayer with a keyboard and mouse.
things that I’m excited for:
Project Scarlet (Microsoft)
Pokemon Sword and Shield, new DLC character announcement for Smash Bros, announcement of Pikmin 4, Fire Emblem: Three Houses, The Legend Of Zelda: Link’s Awakening, reveal of the Switch Pro and the Switch Lite (Nintendo)
Final Fantasy 7 remake (Square Enix)
Reveal of No More Heroes 1 and 2 HD remake and No more Heroes 3 reveal (Grasshopper Manufacture)
Monster Hunter World: Iceborne news (Capcom)
the Avengers Project (Crystal Dynamics)
Bayonetta 3 (Platinum Games)
I’m pretty excited for this year in terms of E3. So many big companies announcing something ground breaking will get me hyped up. All of these games served a piece in my memories and I can’t see to see whats next in them.
I’m very much looking forward to Fire Emblem Three Houses. I’m glad Nintendo announced a new main line Fire Emblem game for home consoles after such a long time. It’s still portable technically with it being it on Switch but I’m glad to see the series looking so impressive after being on handheld consoles for a long time
Actually waiting for the Corsair k70 Mechanical Keyboard and Corsair Ironclaw Wireless Gaming Mouse so that me and my brother will have an awesome experience playing our favourite game League of Legends.
We’ve been playing it since both of us is in High School and still playing it as our favourite past time now that I got my degree and he is still in college. Hope we can win!
Reeaaalllyyyy excited for concrete genie by Sony Interactive Entertainment, it’s an exclusive game coming to the ps4 and it has me so excited because it’s a really unique game, and it’s been a while since I’ve seen anything like it, also it’s a game that contains beautiful art sequences and as an art lover, I feel it’s something I’d really enjoy
Electronic Arts and Respawn Entertainment’s Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order is what I am most looking forward too. I am a huge Star Wars fan and there has been a lack of quality Star Wars games.
Borderlands 3 hands down. After gearbox made the announcement i was so pumped. I can’t wait for the release in September
Awaiting the PS 4 Pro console and NHL 20.. I am a huge hockey nut.. Thanks for the lovely giveaway
Extremely excited for the Baldur’s Gate 3 teaser from Larian. After more than 15 years since its predecessor, I am ready to return to Minsc and Boo!
I am really excited for the Pokémon Shield game. I used to play Pokémon on my DS when I was younger, along with the trading cards, and then I just started playing Let’s Play Eevee with my boyfriend on his Switch. We are now looking forward to the Shield game and we love playing Pokémon together. We even both downloaded Pokémon GO and go for walks together catching Pokémon. My mom rolls her eyes since we’re adults playing Pokémon, but we have fun doing it and will continue to do it during our time together! My brother and I want a Switch to play on since I don’t have one. I can only play Pokémon when my boyfriend and I are together (nothing wrong with that though since it’s still fun, but having a Switch of my own/with my brother would be awesome).
I’m most excited for the Cyberpunk 2077 from CD Projekt Red and The Last of Us 2 from Naughty Dog announcements (both for PS4), because the two studios truely put all their heart and soul into making their games to be the best experience for their fans and both games look absolutely incredible!
I am stoked for the Super Mario Maker 2 announcement by Nintendo. Super fun to play with friends and making levels for them to try and beat!
Cannot wait for the game called rune factory 5 for the Nintendo switch developed by MARVELOUS! . I have played all the other games and when this was announced in the Nintendo direct I was exciting
Will be looking forward to anything about the new gen xbox or halo infinte.
🙂
everything zelda. link’s awakening for switch should be interesting.
I hope Ubisoft will announce a new Assassin’s Creed! I heard rumors about it being in the viking era!
I am excited for video games to be good again
Looking forward to all the new game announcements!
Super Mario Maker 2, by Nintendo. Mario Was the first game I played as a kid
I’m really excited for more news about Pokémon Sword and Shield on Nintendo Switch, since it takes place in a fictional version of my homeland!
Super Mario 2 for the switch by Nintendo. Grew up with the lovable man and can’t wait to fall in love all over again.
I am excited for Nintendo’s Nintendo Switch Console with Neon Red/Blue Joy-Con because growning up playing with Nintendo DS, I would love enjoy playing many games on Nintendo Switch.
My All-time favourite Nintendo switch game!
We are Super Excited for Borderlands 3:) Hubby and I played the other 2. And are eagerly awaiting the Release of this one. Thanks for the chance to win. We are huge gamers. And I would love to Gift the Ps4 prize pack to him.
Infinity Ward announcing COD MW for either ps4 or xbox, simply because COD was one of the first games my son and I really played together and they are fun 🙂
I’m personally excited for Pokémon Sword and Shield from Nintendo. I’ve owned most of the Pokémon games and have been hooked on it ever since the Gameboy days, watched the anime, owned the toys, the whole nine yards. Pokémon feels like such a big part of my childhood and it’s been there for me through some of the most painful times of my life. But no matter what, I know I can always look forward to discovering a new region full of new Pokémon and new characters. Pokémon love is still going strong to this day. Can’t wait for Sword and Shield.
Definitely looking forward to the release of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare from Activison for X-Box One. Call of Duty has been one of my favourite platform games for many years now.
Pokémon & me go WAY BACK, SO the shield game made by Nintendo is what I’m anxiously awaiting. LOOKING FORWARD TO THE NEW POKEMON!!!
Excited to learn more about the leaked Roller Legends game from Ubisoft. Just looks like it could be good fun.
i’m really excited for Cadence of Hyrule, Necrodancer is one of my fav games
Pokemon Sword and Shield for the Nintendo Switch! So excited to explore a new world and new Pokémon after so long and so exciting to be able to share the experience with my niece and pass on the joy of Pokémon that I had as a kid.
Cyberpunk 2077 – Yes.
I’m really excited for a new halo. Looking forward to masterchief collection on pc
I would love the Nintendo 1 prize pack. When i was a kid my dad and step mom got us a Nintendo, we would compete to get the farthest in super Mario bros. When they split up my step mon took the gaming system and i wasn’t able to get anything else for years to come, it was a N64, i played with my friends most nights. Always a blast.
I can’t wait to hear about the new animal crossing, since they dropped the direct there hasn’t been much info on it and im sure that’s mostly because they’re holding out for e3! Sad that Sony won’t be at e3, but I’m sure they’ll more than make up for it. The only current gen console I don’t have is the ps4 and I would love to win one !!
Since Sony is skipping E3 this year (hella big Sony fan boy), in lieu of that, I am most excited for the Microsoft press conference because I am curious too see what they have to offer and how Halo Infinite will top the other halo games (which will be hard). The manufacturer who made the announcement was Microsoft (Xbox Game Studios) and the games developer is 343 industries. The announcement of Halo infinite is important to me because I have always enjoyed the Halo stories/multiplayer modes since a kid (played everyone). I found both the weapons and vehicles fun to use in the previous Halo games and I also like the Halo universes the story takes place in.
I am excited for Death Stranding; we absolutely know nothing about but yet I am intrigued, kinda like how he kept a tight lid on everything he worked. That’s what I am kinda looking out for, other than that; I am also looking forward for The new Modern Warfare Reboot.

Nintendo’s announcement of Animal Crossing Switch. Always love this game for fun and cuteness!
I’m really excited to play Legend of Zelda: Links Awakening Remake, and hopefully more stuff to come from Nintendo. Best 2D Zelda game.
Most excited for the announcement by Nintendo for the switch game smash bros, coming out with a 3d add on that could make a great game better.
For this year it’s definitely has to be Super Mario Maker 2 announced by Nintendo. My family enjoys all Mario games and this title will trigger some creativity from the kiddies. Thanks for the chance to win!
