Here are my top 5 most anticipated upcoming games :D
1. Forza Horizon 4
(https://assets.rockpapershotgun.com/images//2018/06/forza-motorsport-4.jpg)
I honestly thought coming into E3 it'd easily be Last of Us 2, and that I'd be in the market for a PS4 pro, but last of us 2 never got a release date again and Horizon 4 came out of nowhere and now i'm saving up for a One X to experience this beauty in 4k 60fps the way it's intended. :)
Forza Horizon games have always been my favorite racing games since their inception. They have fathered this lane in video games that the Crew and a few others have fallen into where it's open world sim racing, but not exactly a need for speed clone. And Microsoft lives or dies by Halo, Gears and Forza. So they are almost always consistently good.
I'm a pretty huge fan of racing games, and Horizon 4 will almost certainly be good. :D
2. Pokemon Let's go Pikachu/Eevee
(https://gematsu.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/Pokemon-Lets-Go-Gameplay-40-Mins_06-12-18.jpg)
Pokemon Let's go Pikachu snuck up on me, I went from thinking it was another gimick like pokemon go with a pocket pika pokeball that I wouldn't love. But then at E3 I realize it's basically a full blown remastered Pokemon Yellow but this time with the pokeball peripheral that makes the game come to life. It's truly an amazing looking game :). I have to get used to the battle system and what they've done with certain things. But it's pokemon so I love it.
3. Kingom Hearts III
(https://cdn.wccftech.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/Kingdom-Hearts-III-Mini-Games-740x416.jpg)
Not many games some up my childhood and teen years like Kingdom Hearts :). I love Kingdom Hearts and have waited all of my adult life for this game. And now that it's here, I don't know if it's quite registered how amazing this is. Maybe i'm slightly pessimisitc it won't acheive the same level of feels or greatness as the first one. But all and all, it's so incredible to finally have a 3rd kingdom hearts. 1 tooken off the list of the infamous 3rd installment curse. (Half Life 3, Tomba 3, Klonoa 3, Dark Cloud 3, Bioshock 3, SMW 3 ect...)
4. Last of Us 2
(https://www.technobuffalo.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/the-last-of-us-part-2-021-2-470x310@2x.jpg)
Last of us 2 was probably the most talked about E3 conference. Mostly because of the kiss scene ^. I am kinda disturbed by how many gamers got in arms to trash Naughty Dog for having a lesbian protagonist in their game. Masking homophobic remarks as "concerns for the game" It gets into a deeper political issue that I won't plague this thread with. But all and all, People need to loosen up a bit and I commend naughty dog for doing something I don't think i've seen done in gaming without the intent to make fun. The less people excluded from the fun of video game culture the better in my eyes.
Now as for the game itself, I wish I had seen more Zombie gameplay, seemed much more human to human combat with Ellie slashing throats and what not. But holy (explitive) lol. This game looks so breathtaking. As expected. It's of course my number 1 spot, but I don't think it'd be fair to put a game that has not even been announced for a formal release date yet over games I know I can buy at the end of this year. That's why it' 4. But don't get me wrong, it's my number 1 most anticipated game since the last one lol. It's the sequel to one of the best games ever made. It's starting to become more of the long lost friend I long to meet with again but never will though as they keep showing me glorious trailers and gameplay but no release date in sight. Not even an estimated window to look forward to :(. And that was pretty much my downfall of E3 was the lack of a TLOU2 release date.
5. Crackdown 3
(https://gamingbolt.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/crackdown-3-sdcc-screenshot.jpg)
I was leaning towards Smash being my 5th spot, but I think if I could choose one to play today it'd be Crackdown 3 :). It has so much potential to be an amazing open world game, and crackdowns unique, not much like it in terms of art style and gameplay which rare now a days. The sci fi cop open world style with saints row weapons. I hope it's an awesome entry and another huge 1st party homerun for Xbox :D.

I’m interested in most games, but not excited for many of them.
The majority I’d be fine never playing.
-
I'm going to limit this to games that actually have a release date or are expected to be released this year, but there are plenty announced at E3 that I can't wait to play:
1. Resident Evil 2 (PS4)
2. Shenmue and Shenmue 2 HD (PS4)
3. Super Smash Bros Ultimate (Switch)
4. Jurassic World Evolution (PS4)
5. Team Sonic Racing (PS4)
6. Pokemon: Let's Go Pikachu (Switch)
7. SNK Heroines: Tag Team Frenzy (PS4)
8. Minecraft (Switch)
9. Spyro Reignited Trilogy (PS4)
10. Sonic Mania Plus (Switch)
As a side note, Doom Eternal would be #1, but since it is only rumored to come out this year I didn't include it. My money is on a Spring 2019 release, maybe even Fall of that year.
-
Smash Bros. Ultimate for sure, there's no way in hell I'm not getting my hands on a copy of that.
DMC5 is cool too
-
Bloodstained, I'm a backer on Kickstarter and it's been a long time coming. I'm also looking forward to the Spyro trilogy update - even during the PS2 era I was daydreaming about what the flying minigames would look like on more powerful systems, soon enough I'll find out.

The less people excluded from the fun of video game culture the better in my eyes.
If not wanting to surrender our hobby to censorious culture-warriors who want to power-trip boobs and blood out of existence is homophobic, then I'm a raging homophobe. That'll come as some shock to my sister who happens to be a lesbian. I don't want to 'plague' the thread with this either (and avoid discussing culture-wars normally), but just casually dismissing concerns over whether poltically-correct point scoring is happening as homophobia, particularly in this climate, is itching for some kind of response (and I hope this is taken in the spirit meant, I'm not having a go at you here). Just as some of the gaming press are cheering this though it is somehow the breaking of the Berlin Wall, others are criticizing (!) the trailer for being violent towards women and yet more are complaining about the violence in general. Perhaps these critics would prefer it if the game kept the lesbianism and did away with the violence and actual game altogether?
I'm not saying that the game is just point scoring, i don't know enough about it, and I'm certainly not saying all the negative comments are in any way defensible, there's some downright nasty pieces of work out there. However, the more political correctness becomes a game in itself, the less choice we're going to have and the more the vocal few are going to demand. I just hope the next game doesn't involve Ellie running past 'misogynist' plant-zombies while demanding that they check their privilege, not that I'd be buying it either way.

I mean yeah I can agree that shit can get out of hand and ridiculous pretty fast, but I also think the idea that video games should inherently avoid including anything of the sort to avoid some kind of censorship apocalypse is..well, pretty damn homophobic. I get why it can get annoying, but at the same time I think the way people are so eager to throw the SJW card at well, basically any protagonist that isn't a straight white dude really isn't any better, which is why a lot of people are sick of this sort of thing instantly garnering complaints.

I've pre-ordered my LE for Little Dragon Cafe so I'm stoked for that. I'm also stoked for the final mix of TWEWY. It's was my hands down favorite DS game and is near and dear to my heart.
Other hype games:
-Super Mario Party
-KH III
-Spyro Reignited Trilogy
-
Guaranteed Buy: Smash Ultimate, Super Mario Party
Not Sure:
Let's Go, Eevee! 55%
I keep going back and forth on whether I want to get Lets Go, Eevee!, because I honestly don't feel that $60 is a fair price for what is essentially a remake, maybe if it was 40 or even 50 I would be more inclined to get it. Plus I don't wanna blow my hype for Gen 8 on this "side game". The only thing that excites me are the changes to Pokemon encounters and the catching mechanics from Pokemon Go.
Red Dead Redemption 2 40%
I really want to be hyped for this, but it isn't what I was expecting for a sequel to the first. I really feel like people are gonna get overhyped for it and be disappointed by not having more than what was shown. I sincerely hope I'm wrong, but we'll see.
Spyro Reignited Trilogy 50%
I am kind of excited for this trilogy because I've only played 2-3 Spyro games very lightly when I was with friends and I liked them enough and I've always wanted to really get into them. It's also only $40 for 3 games rebuilt from the ground up, compared to something like Lets Go Eevee! it looks like an absolute steal.

I don't believe it needs avoiding at all, I just think it should be done sensibly and as part of the process, not because the press and industry heads have decided that as much non-straight-white-male characters need jamming into games as possible and fuck everyone who thinks otherwise. I'd fully agree that the atmosphere created has resulted in games and characters unfairly being labelled 'SJW' when creators are just exercising their own will is dispiriting, to put it mildly, but this atmosphere has been created by a handful of vocal twits and swallowed wholesale by the industry. Most of us just want to play the damned games, not be lectured.

Now that we have a release date for AC7 I'm super excited for it. Already pre-ordered it :o
-
My list just grew about 3 times over
Guaranteed Buy:
Luigi's Mansion 3
I never thought in my wildest dreams we would get another Luigi's Mansion on console, so Luigi's Mansion 3 is a dream come true for me. I only hope that it's more like the first game than Dark Moon.
Yoshi's Crafted World
Yoshi's Whooly World was one of my favorite games on the Wii U so Yoshi's Crafted World is a no-brainer.
Civilization 6
Civ 6 on Switch is also a big one because I can just pick up and play any time without having to wait for my slow ass PC to start it up.
Animal Crossing 2019
I've only played AC New Leaf on 3DS and that was years after its release so I'm kind of excited to be able to play one from the get go for the first time.
-
-Smash ultimate
-Resident Evil 2
-Devil May Cry 5
-Ori 2
-Bayonetta 3
-that Sucker Punch game who's name escapes me right now
-Fist of the North Star: Lost Paradise
-Judge Eyes (aka Project Judge)
-
-that Sucker Punch game who's name escapes me right now
Ghost of Tsushima. I am super hyped for this game as well I just didn't list it because it's so far out
