The ‘Call of Duty – Modern Warfare’ announcement is very exciting! Why? The new interactive features is what I am all a’tingle for!

Always been the biggest fan of ghost recon series and rainbow siege and fell with this game when watched the trailer on YouTube can’t wait to get hands on this game.
I’m most excited for the new Call of Duty Modern Warfare by Activision and Infinity Ward because they are bringing back the look and feel of the old modern warfare games that I remember playing so long ago to enjoy again in a new light.
Super excited for Nintendo’s Link’s Awakening and Pokemon Sword and Shield. Pretty much my childhood playing both series and love seeing how the games have grown over the years. Also really hoping to see any more concrete details from Bioware on Dragon Age 4, even if its just a snippet. I’ve replayed these games over and over again and would love to see the story continue!
Most definitely has to be borderlands 3. Played 2 years ago and just recently started it up again on my PS4 with 4 friends. We are heavy prepping for 3

It would mean everything for me to play Super smash bros again after my injuries and remember my childhood happiness.
Been waiting FOREVER for a new Fire Emblem game, and Fire Emblem: 3 Houses looks like its gonna be so much fun! Best series of game from Nintendo and I’m very glad they decided to make another one. Gonna need to buy a Switch exclusively for it, but I imagine it’ll be worth it!
There’s a lot of announcements that I look forward to seeing. While I play all consoles, I always look forward to the Microsoft conference the most just because I play that system the most. I’m hoping for a Halo Reach release date along with some updates for the new Halo.
I try to stay away from rumours leading up to E3 as I enjoy surprises. Typically there are a couple of them over the course of everyone’s conferences and I look forward to hearing about all of them.
Beyond Good and Evil, from Ubisoft, used to be one of my favourite games back when I had a PlayStation 2. Now I can’t wait to play Beyond Good and Evil 2 in my Xbox!
I’m overly excited about the upcoming release of Crash Team Racing Nitro Fueled on the Nintendo Switch. I’m looking forward to a jump back in time with a game suited for the entire family.
I can remember the hours I’ve spent playing Crash Bandicoot, back in the days.
Insanely excited for borderlands 3 to come out from gearbox software and 2k games, it is my favourite first person shooter with their comic like graphics. One of the main reason it excites me is because it still has a cooperatives coop campaign.

The gaming that got me the most excited is the PS4 Red Redemption because I like cowboy stuff.

I’m most excited that some of the Simpsons producers and writers are going to be there and host their own panel! Fingers crossed for a hit and run remake, or a sequel!
Super stoked about The Last of Us Part 2!!! The first part was a game changer!! Graphics, storyline, acting; you really felt for the characters. I love how storytelling in video games are becoming better than movies these days! There’s a reason why the first Last of Us won so many game of the year awards. Can’t wait for part 2 on the PS4!! Naughty Dog knows what they’re doing!
Can’t wait for super mario maker 2! First game I ever played and still love it.

I’m super pumped for all the new PS4 games, especially the long-awaited TLOU2 and the new Modern Warfare. Going to be glued to my TV once they release.
Super excited for Cyberpunk 2077!
Halo infinite’s release is the highlight of 2019
I’m excited for the new Animal Crossing game for the Switch! Also hoping for an announcement on the Avengers game!
I’m really excited with the new release of Crash team racing for xbox one by Beenox. It makes me feel my childhood again, my brother and I were really competitive and I want to take revenge because he was the best player in mu family.
What really excited me was the Announcement for Marvel’s Avengers
Pumped for square enix and final fantasy 7, looking forward to seeing gameplay mechanics and whatever else the have in store for us! Such a massive part of my childhood!

Super stoked for call of duty modern warfare! I’m so happy Infinity Ward and Activision are rebooting this franchise. I spent countless hours on the first games and it was just pure fun playing with all my friends on multiplayer! Can’t wait to play this on on the PS4 with even better graphics than before!!
I’m excited about a couple of things. With the Football season coming up I’m hyped to play Madden NFL 20 coming out soon. I’ve also been looking forward to trying out Samurai Shodown too. Anything PlayStation 4 has done has always blown me away. I like so many consoles for different reasons but PlayStation 4 is my favorite Hands down, they always do something that just leaves me amazed it’s such a well ran Company and their System is just phenomenal. Even their free downloads/upgrades are always great too. I don’t have a playstation 4 just yet I’m still playing PS3 but I Plan to get a PS4 very soon. With all the incredible things they are doing it’s my favorite System for a reason. Thank you for this opportunity Best Buy

Im really excited to get more info about cyberpunk 2077, borderlands 3, Dying light 2, and Halo infinite. I loved playing halo and borderlands as a kid with all my friends, had great memories with both of the franchises. Dying light was super fun and I hope dying light 2 will be just as fun! Cyberpunk 2077 looks super cool and cant wait to get my hands on any of these copies!
I am the most excited to see footage of the Final Fantasy 7 Remake from Square Enix. I have so many fond memories of playing the original on my PlayStation 1, and it is the first game I ever beat. It ignited my love for RPG’s and all the other Final Fantasy games and I am so excited to play it when it comes out!
I really excited for Ubisoft’s new Ghost Recon! Huge fan of the series!
I’m excited for Xbox’s conference. I think they’re going to have some exciting announcements this year and I can’t wait to see what they bring.
excited about animal crossing for switch!
It was just released, but the new Kerbal Space Program DLC! It adds robotics to the game which makes everything significantly more interesting. Other than that, I’m really excited for the new Pokémon RPG that was just announced.
Two announcements have me excited in 2019:
Include in your comment the manufacturer who made the announcement, the title of the gaming item, and why this announcement is so important to you. Is it a game, a console, or something else? Be specific and clear.
Monster Hunter World: Iceborne – manufactured by Capcom, this paid DLC is still attractive as a very strong follow up to a game that already packs in a lot of content for your dollar. Well-crafted environments, engaging gameplay, and the opportunity to cut dinosaurs up with a sword!
Also looking forward to seeing how Death Stranding (Kojima Productions) shakes out. The marketing has been done really well so far and the aesthetic looks very cool but the recent full-length trailer has me a little doubtful. Interested in seeing how it goes!
I’m most excited about the new Xbox gaming console dubbed “Anaconda”. I’ve always been an Xbox fan and love seeing how the tech improves with each succession. This years release has me excited for better gaming visuals and bridging the gap between all-powerful PC’s and consoles.
Le nouveau Call of duty moderne wayfare WHOO!
I’m super excited about the New Call of Duty Modern Warfare game! I don’t yet have a PS4 so playing it at my friends house will have to do lol
Call of Duty has been my favorite franchise since day one!
Please pick me Best Buy! I would love the PS4 prize!!!!!
I wanna hear more about Borderlands 3 from Gearbox cause what else could they possibly add to this game to make it more wild. I’d love to play it on PlayStation!
I’m most anticipating Cyberpunk 2077 by CD Projekt Red. CDPR has proven they deserve loyalty and the game looks amazing. It will probably be shown during the Xbox presentation, but I’ll be getting it for PS4.
Really excited about the Nintendo Switch and Super Mario U deluxe. Played Mario all the time when I was a kid!!!
I am stoked for the new animal crossing coming out on Nintendo Switch that Nintendo announced. Having played all the games in the series since GameCube, I’ve fallen in love with the game. It always gives me an escape from reality and really lets me enjoy the happier things in life!
