Final Fantasy VII Remake news from Square Enix, hoping for a release date, been waiting pretty long!
The kingdom hearts 3 game has be soo hyped. It’s includes Disney and Pixar characterS. I’m just ready for the journey of the dark seeker saga to end. Having a ps4 pro to use would be amazing. I currently have the ps3, and it’s been acting up! It’s about that time for an upgrade.

I’m excited for Death Stranding from Kojima Productions!
Sony Playstation 5!
I am EXTREMELY excited for Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order by Respawn Entertainment. It is across all platforms but the one I would love to get it with is a PS4. My brother and I don’t talk much anymore but if anything could bring us back together is Star Wars and a PlayStation. We grew up with the Force and the PlayStation 2. He has a PS4 and I don’t do being able to have a gaming system we could both play games together on would be fantastic.
Cyberpunk 2077 from CD Projekt RED is what I’m most excited about. Their initial presentation was fantastic and I can’t wait to see what they have in store for everyone this E3, going to be amazing.
Im really excited about square enix’s announcement of the Final Fantasy 7 remake.
It’s been years since it was confirmed with little-to-no updates and to finally get some news at E3 will be amazing.
The original is my favourite game of all time and I cant wait to get the remake
Any announcement from Microsoft, looking forward to new console or games
As for now, my most excited announcement came from Nintendo with Super Mario Maker 2 for Switch. This follow-up to the Wii-U game looks amazing! They added so much features and what looks like a solid online implementation. This is exactly what a 2nd entry in a franchise should be! Can’t wait to play it for hundred of hours!
I’m Anticipating the gruesome manslaughter game Dead by Daylight on Switch , as Stated by the Blog Thumbsticks.com , Daniel New. The killing game Dead by Daylight along with it’s vast roster of killing machines will be imported in the nintendo switch console, So hyped for this. The importance of this release for me is that I could finally play this on a switch console and not having to go ps4 cafes to play this on, most importantly having dead by daylight on a portable console! How cool is that! Not to mention the crisp graphics and 60 fps framerate of the switch console.
I am excited about the forthcoming (so I hope!) announcement of the Sony PlayStation 5. I am a long time Sony PlayStation fan and cannot wait to see how they’ve once again improved on all the previous amazing products they’ve released – always so many sweet surprises.
I am really excited for the new Star Wars game and I think cod mobile my son loves Star Wars so much
My most anticipated announcement is the reveal of Marvel’s Avengers that was announced back in 2017 from Square Enix this is important to me because I wanna see if an Avengers game can be done probably like Spider Man PS4 was and I grew with Marvel since the first Iron Man and I really want to see how well a MCU gaming universe can be done on the systems that’s if it is connected to Spider Man PS4 and I really hope it is because I know Square Enix and Crystal Dynamics did I fantastic job with the Tomb Raider Reboot Trilogy and I believe with all the time they took to make this I’m sure it was worth the wait
I’m totally stoked for Electronic Art’s livestreams of “Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order”. I honestly don’t think I’ve been this excited for a new Star Wars game since I first saw copies of “Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy” for the original Xbox on display at the Futureshop, now Best Buy, in Brantford, ON. Seeing that game in the store was a “wow” experience at the time for me.
Marvels avengers, by square enix. I’ve grown up on superheroes watching the movies, playing other marvel games and I dont know what but they fill me with so much joy, also batman court of owls by Warner bros Montreal I think
Nintendo’s announcement of the game Mario Maker 2 for Nintendo Switch. It is important to me because it looks like a fun game.
Call of duty: Mw
This game got me hyped up because the game is on a new engine (better graphics), no season pass and crossplay added. I have been a fan of cod and I’m really excited for this game
Avengers New Game
I am definitely looking forward to a Playstation 5 announcement. I’ve already saved the money and hope to have it replace my Playstation 4 which seems like it’s going to “give up the ghost” any day now. I just bought a 4k TV too so I would love to just have PS5 instead of upgrading my PS4 to a Pro. Thanks for a chance to win!
Been really excited about Borderlands 3. Played the original, Borderlands 2 and the Pre-Sequel and they’re for sure the best video games I’ve ever played. Been almost 7 years since the last one came out so it’s pretty exciting to finally have another one in the series.
The announcement that has kept me on the edge of my seat has to be Death Stranding on the Sony Playstation 4, I’m sure it will be an amazing game!
The switch a announcement was Cool I think I would like the switch bundle 2 my son would be so happy
Call of duty: MW they after a long time have introduced a game on a different engine , no season pass and cross play. This game got me hyped up
I’m looking forward to and am very excited about the PS5. Currently, I own a custom build gaming PC, built by yours truly in 2010 and a Wii U. I was briefly thinking about purchasing a PS4 Pro but will hold out until the next generation of consoles are released next year. I grew up in the 80’s so I was weened on the Sega Master System that my Dad bought for me in 1987.
I’m most excited about Nintendo’s Pokémon sword and shield. My son loves all the Pokémon games and it brings me back to when I was kid. We have a lot of great Pokémon discussions! However with all the new characters these days, it sometimes feels like he’s giving me a university lecture on the world of Pokémon lol.
I’m looking forward to seeing what’s new from Obsidian’s game, The Outer Worlds. It was announced on The Outer Worlds Twitter account there will be new information coming up for the game. I’m excited about this because I love Fallout New Vegas and the Fallout series, which they created and developed.
I would really like the ps4 package because im excited for the ps5 announcement by Sony and plan to get it when released. I just started liking ps because I would play it at my friends house but I dont have the money to buy it right now. I really like the division 2, spider man and far cry new dawn. Also most of my friends have a ps4 and I can’t play with them and I get really bored. I have a xbox but it’s really old and I don’t like it at all.
I have been anticipating the PS4 game The Last of Us Part II. Stories in games are what drive me to want to complete them and the story of the first game brought me a wave of emotions. Not only do I want to know what happens next, the gameplay of the first game was great AND a the gameplay footage plus visuals of the second game looks astounding.
I’m excited to learn more about the game Daemon x Machina on the Nintendo Switch. I’ve never played a mech action game before and the demo was a lot of fun!
My son always asks me if we could get a Nintendo switch and I say maybe for your birthday and my freind told me about this so I tried it I think switch bundle 2 looks good

I am exited about the switch announcement
And I have my Xbox 360 that I play on and I have freinds who on the switch and we always play super smash bros that’s why I would like switch bundle #1
I am an avid Sony fan, I so very curious to see the reasoning behind not attending e3. Wonder what Microsoft will make of it and if it could eventually mean Xbox finally overtaking PS4 sales. I’m excited to see how the rivalry will evolve as well as what it could mean for Sony, seems like there’s could be a secret at work here.
Sincerely,
Jay Geerts
I am a big star wars fan. I’m excited for the 2019 announcement for Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order by Respawn Entertainment on Xbox . Just love it!
Not sure if it’s specifically gaming but I’m actually excited about AMD’s announcement about the ryzen 3000 series processor. This is really turning up the heat in the PC space and is finally making higher end processors affordable to the masses. It’s definitely going to help PC gaming in a big way.
The family is looking forward to the Nintendo’s announcement of Mario Maker 2 for Nintendo Switch.
