I am beyond ecstatic about Square Enix’s Announcement of their Marvel Avengers’ game. I wasn’t ready to close the book on all the MCU chapters (with Inifinity War’s finality), so I’m looking forward to stretch the fun out.
Also, Square Enix is always providing excellent graphics and gameplay. I cannot wait!
How are people forgetting Luigi’s mansion?!? I can’t wait for this game to come out, it is bringing back all those childhood feels!
Waiting for cyberpunk 2077. CD Projek Red make wonderful and top quality games can’t wait to play this on my pc in first person. I Love Sci-fi theme game and this one look incredible. I hope we can get a release date for this Jewel game !
Most excited about Microsoft’s reveal of project Scarlett. Not only because I’m an Xbox fan, but also because it will stir the rest of the industry pot. What will the new industry leading specs be? Price point? Options? Release date? Backwards
Compatibility? Another run at motion capture or VR gaming? It’s important in my opinion that competing brands feed off each other’s successes and failures which drives the quality of gaming we have today.
Announcement made by activision thats Call Of duty modern warfere is coming out. Modern wafare was the gateway to gaming for me and would love to see how the new one mimics the older ones.
I am suuuuper excited for Dying Light 2 for Xbox! I’m also really hoping for confirmation on the new Dragon Age 4 from BioWare. They’ve been teasing it for quite some time, and DA Inquisition is one of my ultimate favourite games, so I’m really looking forward to this next one.
Well since I’ve been an ultimate fan of the Pokemon Games by Gamefreak, i am most certainly looking forward to more descriptive announcements for the Pokemon Sword and Shield Game.
I’ve played Pokemon games since Yellow, even the mystery dungeon and pokemon ranger games. I mean tbh, the reason why i bought the switch was because I heard that all pokemon games will be created for the switch and not other consoles. So really, information about gym, the battle systems, badges and we already know about trainer design- which we’d know during the nintendo direct segment. All these information will really make me all hyped up for this game! The franchise is just such a classic!!
This announcement is important to me because I have a record of playing ever pokemon game, and i hope to continue that!
*fingers crossed on a story of seasons (previously harvest moon) game though, that too is another franchise I’ve played*
I am extremely excited for a possible announcement for Dragon Age 4 from BioWare. They’ve teased us with the possibility a few months back. However being able to have a 100 percent confirmation would be amazing. Such a unique gaming experience.
I am looking forward to the New Super Bros U Deluxe! have always been absolutely hooked with Super Mario games! Nintendo never fails to create such amazing games!!
FROM SOFTWARE’s announcement about them making a game with George R.R Martin! A truly difficult game with fantastic story telling from the guy who wrote “A song of Ice and fire”? Yea I’m pumped!
I would love to play the new Pokémon game so I me and my daughter can learn the new Pokémon together (I’ve been out of the Pokémon games for a while now) but I saw the switch was portable and great for kids. I had a game boy growing up and I wanted to share that experience with my kid. Then hopefully she grows up loving games as much as I did!
I’m most excited about Baldur’s Gate III. The original Baldur’s Gate to this day has been one of my favorite multi player dungeon siege games on console.
I am looking forward to the New Super Bros U Deluxe! I have been playing Super Mario since Super Mario Land on gameboy and since then I have been absolutely hooked with Super Mario games! Nintendo never fails to create such amazing games!!
Hearing about the new call of duty modern warfare really made me excited! I’ve been a huge fan of the series for a very long time and cannot wait to see what they have in store with this new title!! I remember my opening call of duty 4 on Christmas morning and jumping up and down, then rushing up to my room Immediately after opening this gift to play it! One of my most fond Christmas memories 🙂
I’m looking foward for the release of cyberpunk 2077. Hoping to get new news about it.
Call of duty Modern warfare by infinity ward. Call of duty resembles a series we grew up playing, and having infinity ward releasing and remastering it will revive those long days of gaming
I’m most excited for Pokémon sword and shield for Nintendo Switch. I just bought a Switch because I was so hyped, didn’t even bother to check when Sword and Shield was coming >_<
I’m very excited about the Nintendo switch announcements. And I’m really hoping that Bethesda will finally release or hint at the next Elder Scrolls. I’ve been waiting too long.
Madden 20
NEW POKÉMON!! And Mario! Most interested in all the stuff coming to the switch
Pretty excited for cyberpunk 2077. cdpr makes some great games and I love anything cyberpunk in general. The gameplay that I saw looked pretty slick, can’t wait for that game to release. Not sure who announced it though, but I saw the gameplay video on YouTube.
The new Pokémon is probably the best one. Really excited about pretty much all new nitendo switch announcement!!! Who doesn’t love to play to super smash bros!! One of the best game I played.

Looking forward to the new EA sports titles being announced.
Death Stranding – Kojima Productions and Sony PS4
I don’t even had. PlayStation, but would buy one for this game. It just looks so beautiful and with what appears to be some thought to a story behind it. I hope it lives up to expectations as I may become a PlayStation owner.
Excited about the New Super Mario Bros, the games have been so much fun in the past.
I’m most excited for the new Pokémon Sword and Shield Game release, but you KNOW I’m going for that gaming PC prize pack!
Halo infinite so much jr high nostalgia
looking forward to play call of duty modern warfare this fall! Reminds me the time I was playing on xbox 360 when I was younger. I would like to play this game on Xbox one x!
Any thing for PS4.
I own first gen Xbox one and all my friends
Own PS4 I vowed to never give in but I think
The time has come since I don’t have any friends
On Xbox and the only game I can play with ps4
Friends is fortnite.
So if I won a PS4 that would make my year for sure. Thank you
I’m really excited about mario maker 2 on the Nintendo Switch. I am a huge fan of the classic mario platformer games and I haven’t had a Nintendo console for a while. I would love to get access to one to play mario maker 2 and all the other wonderfull games Nintendo has been releasing.
New Nintendo Switch ! The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening !! Been a huge fan on gameboy as a kid! Would like to return to that world!
I am super excited for a possible annocnemt for Dragon Age 4 from BioWare. They’ve teased us with a possibly for another game a couple mounts ago but I would LOVE for an actual confirmation that the game is on the way.
Definitely most excited about the new Pokémon games!
I’m excited most about the potential announcement of animal crossing for the Nintendo Switch!!
Looking forward to call of duty from infinity ward have been a huge fan of cod since the original modern warfare, but then again can’t wait to see what ps has to offer in the future.
I think an interesting debut will be Pokémon Sword and Shield for Nintendo Switch. Loved the Pokémon games as a kid and may finally give me a reason to buy a Nintendo Switch…or I could win one…
I’m really excited to see what the avengers project by Square Enix will be like, on top of that, I can’t wait for The Last of Us Part 2 by Naughty Dog to come out.
Sony’s announcement of a new console has me excited always like to see how they can push the envelop further. Looking forward to seeing what new features get added like backwards compatibility etc. It’s always great to get that feeling of opening up the new tech it reminds me of Christmas morning when I was your and go the first NES
I’m excited to hear about Microsoft’s project XCloud and how it will stack up against Google Stadia’s game streaming service. I’m curious to how this may impact physical sales for both consoles and games in the future…
I’m just super excited for more cyberpunk2077 information!
I was most excited about Yoshi’s Crafted World for the Switch. Yoshi’s Woolly World was my first completed game on the 3ds. I collected all the amiibos for this game; all 3 wool colours of yoshis + the poochy. I have yet to get the giant woolly Yoshi. It was announced by Nintendo at Nintendo Direct last year. I ran to the store after it came out and paid full price for it. I have yet to complete it but still so excited and happy of all the work they put in it. 🙂 Thanks Nintendo.
Animal Crossing on Nintendo Switch is something I have been waiting long time. Hoping they annouce it on this E3
The announcement that has me most excited is that Xbox will be unveiling “14 first party games.” What this means to me is that the value of the Xbox, it’s upcoming console and it’s already fantastic Game Pass just increased in a big way. All of these games will be day one releases for Game Pass. Big news. Huge.
Im excited for the Final Fantasy 7 remake, the next halo, beyond good and evil 2, Pokemon sword and and a bunch of new mmo games on pc (like lost arc online, FF XIV shadowbringers, etc…)
It’s gotta be the new Pokémon. I’m so looking forward to all Switch announcements.
I am really excited to see a new animal crossing game coming out in the next 6 months for the Nintendo switch. It’s a childhood favourite of mine and can’t wait to see what’s new.
New Super Mario U Deluxe, because I loved playing Super Mario when I was a kid.
Death standing by Sony. It’s such a new story and type of game compared to most these days, I haven’t been this evicted about a game release in a while. Sometimes depression really sucks, but it’s nice when something gives you a little spark back.
Super excited for Call of Duty Modern Warfare!! Probably my favourite gaming series ever!!
