Pretty much everything has been announced now and having seen the conferences and announcements that I care about, I can safely say that these are my will-buy and might-buy purchases. For me I'll only list my 2017 purchases, no real point for me to care about 2018 purchases yet...

What are yours?


Definitely Buying DAY 1
  • Ori and the Will of the Wisps (Xbox One)
  • Super Mario Odyssey (Switch)
  • Life is Strange: Before the Storm (PS4)
  • Uncharted: The Lost Legacy (PS4)
  • Wargroove (Switch)

Might Be Buying
  • Super Lucky's Tale (Xbox One)
  • Days Gone (PS4)
  • Cuphead (Xbox One)
  • Metroid: Samus Returns (3DS)
  • Xbox One X

Bonus List - I just haven't decided...
  • Detroit: Become Human (PS4)
  • Everybody's Golf (PS4)

Some of the other big hitters looked impressive to me, but I just know I won't play them...Metroid Exodus, Anthem, State of Decay 2, Fire Emblem Warriors....

I feel bad for my wallet!

EDIT: I know E3 isn't over yet but I don't really wanna add to my own list!
 
Day 1:
Crash Trilogy
Uncharted

Maybe:
AC Origins - Probably pick it up, but as an Ubi game it's worth waiting until the reviews and realistically a patch too...
Mario Odyssey - still divided over the weird art style clash between Mario's characters and the "realistic" aesthetic of the worlds.

Everything else was pretty underwhelming for me, even Beyond Good and Evil 2 was an odd tonal and art style change, plus the focus on multiplayer is off putting.
 
To be honest, everything I want seems so far off that I can't be arsed to think about purchasing any of it yet. I'm surprised how few 'this is out now/very soon' surprises there were this year.

Not a bad E3, but really nothing to get me excited about or that I didn't already know.

EDIT: In fact, the only exciting announcement that's relevant to me is a free update to an existing game (Minecraft)!
 
Definitely Buying DAY 1
Super Mario Odyssey (Switch)
Splantoon 2 (Switch)
Uncharted: The Lost Legacy (PS4)
The Evil Within 2 (PS4)
Crash Bandicoot Trilogy (PS4)

Might Be Buying
Metroid: Samus Returns (3DS) depending on if I can find a super cheap 3DS
 
I'll get Matterfall, Days Gone and Spider-Man for sure.

Dragon Ball FighterZ is a wait and see, need to know the roster first.

And maybe A Way Out, but since my brother may buy it i dunno if i have to yet. I feel like im forgetting some of the announced stuff but eh that list will do
 
I'm gonna buy Spiderman, Shadow of the Colossus and South Park Fractured But Whole. Maybe not day 1, but rather sooner than later.

Undecided on Uncharted The Lost Legacy, Detroit and The Last Night. Gonna keep an eye on them.
 
Well, I only have in mind buying things with confirmed release dates for the current year. But I'll buy day one these:

  • Ni no Kuni II (This game is FUCKING gorgeous)
  • Xenoblade 2
  • Super Mario Odyssey
  • The Evil Within 2
  • Uncharted Lost Legacy


And probably these too:
  • Cuphead
  • Metroid Samus Returns
  • Ori and The Will of the Wisps (I have to buy first Blind Forest tough. I haven't played it yet)


Nintendo didn't have a good conference, but they did what I wanted them to do: giving me a reason for not regreting buying a Switch. So I'll buy it.
 
DBZ and Spiderman, I'm in for them Day One. Sea of Thieves maybe, depends on what the final product ends up like. And of course all of the Nintendo stuff is great, once I get a Switch.
 
There are still a lot of exiting games coming out this year. Won't list 2018 titles. All PS4 games.

Day 1
1. Uncharted: Lost Legacy
2. Hellblade
3. Ni No Kuni 2
4. Knack 2
5. Outcast: Second Contact

Maybe
1. Yakuza 0/Kiwami
2. Shadow of War
3. Star Wars Battleground 2
4. Wolfenstein: The New Colossus
5. Persona 5
6. Vampyr

Too much good stuff...
 
Definitely:
Assassin's Creed Origins

Maybe:
Anthem - need more info, but amazing first impression
Shadow of War - waiting on reviews to see if it delivers

That was all =(
 
PS4 Pro + Star Wars Battlefront 2+ GT Sport + Ni No Kuni
All major releases for the Switch
some "indies" for PC (Cuphead, The Last Night etc.)
 
Haven't really seen enough software to make me decide on buying an Xbox, but I'm feeling Super Lucky and Last night.

Day one:
-God of War
-Uncharted
-Monster hunter
-Spiderman
-Ni no Kuni 2

Will wait for discount:
-Days Gone
-Anthem
-Battlefront 2
-Call of duty
-Dragon Ball Z fighters

I'm definitely feeling the switch after seeing the Nintendo direct. Xenoblade is a definite buy, and so is the new Yoshi game

Sure :
Yoshi Switch
Metroid remake
M&L remake

Playstation VR by the end of the month.

I'll play some older games as I already have some VR-ready stuff like Thumper, Bound, Dirt Rally and Battlefront so I think I'm good for a while. I like the prospect for the device. It's really reassuring Sony is willing to support it.
 
I plan to get the following:

Dragon Ball FighterZ
Metro Exodus

CoD: WWII
SW: Battlefront 2
Gundam Versus
Ni no Kuni II
Shadow of War

I'm only including games that are actually releasing this year.

Battlefront 2
Forza 7
Uncharted
Wolfenstein 2

That's honestly it, pretty full. Now if only I could find a Switch &#128542;
 
Between now and next E3, these are my absolute must-haves;

Xbox One X
Crackdown 3
Ori
State of Decay 2
Sea of Thieves
Nintendo Switch with Mario Odyssey
RDR2
Halo Wars 2 expansion

PS4 would have made the list if either Shenmue 3 or the rumoured HD collection were going to release by then.
 
Want to Buy:

  • Monster Hunter: World
  • God of War
  • Dragon Ball Fighterz

On the Fence:

  • Assassin's Creed: Origins

Battlefront 2
Uncharted: The Lost Legacy
Skyrim VR
Monster Hunter World

Might be buying
A switch....if Nintendo releases a bundle in the West -_-
 
Dragon Ball Fighter Z, even though I'm not a big FTG fan. Time I get the game will depend on if it has a decent amount of single player content.

Anthem and Monster Hunter World will be on the "wait-and-see" list, with the former leaning more towards "pass", since I don't want to try and remember my EA Origin password... lol

I will most definitely get Destiny 2 on PC, but that's been the case before E3.

Mario XCOM looks good as well, but I will see if it's actually good.
 
As others said a very underwhelming E3, the stuff I plan to get I was planning on getting before. Nothing new really convinced me.

Crash Trilogy, FF12 HD, Danganronpa V3, Mario Odyssey, Xenoblade 2, Ni No Kuni 2 and South Park are the games I expect to get before the end of the year.
