On the twilight of the current-gen of console gaming and on the eve of a new generation, there’s still so much to see and do. Here’s a round-up of all the events that’ll be hitting your PC and TV screens, over the next couple of months.

We’re likely going to be spending a fair amount of coin on gaming console hardware for years to come, no matter what Google tells you as they attempt to sell a Stadia subscription to your face.

Panzer Dragoon, Serious Sam and a bunch of Stadia first games will be launching on the service soon. It’s no secret that Google Stadia needs a ringer. They need a monster hit to drop onto the platform and show everyone that maybe buying into a cloud streaming service run by Google was actually a good idea. With several big complaints …

If you were looking to grab a quick special over at Xur or run a few rounds in the Crucible of Destiny 2, then bad news: The game was pretty much unplayable for a while. Hooray always online connected video games! So what’s the deal? The brouhaha all broke out a few hours ago when Bungie took Destiny 2 offline in every way possible, as players were hit with a bug that had the slightly nasty side effect of wiping out their materials.

Stadia launched less than two weeks ago, with its early-access Founder’s Edition giving Stadia Pro access to those who jumped in early. As part of Stadia Pro, users are granted a handful of free games as part of the subscription, similar to how Games with Gold and PlayStation Plus work. When the system launched the free games offered were Destiny 2 and Samurai Shodown (which are both excellent games, by the way).

One of the bigger complaints with Stadia has to do with image quality and performance. When Google first presented stadia, they suggested that Stadia would give users access to more power than both mid-gen consoles combined. They said Stadia games would leverage 10.7 GPU teraflops of computing power, along with the promise that launch games – locked behind that Stadia monthly subscription - would run at 4K and 60fps.

This week, Google’s cloud-based game streaming service launch. And it works. It really, really works. Most of the consumers who’ve bought into stadia and who’ve been able to test it out are impressed with the experience. Games look good, they run well, and many even say that the increased latency is barely perceptible. Unfortunately, for many Stadia Founder’s Edition customers, the launch has been abysmal

Oh hey, Google Stadia is out, and by all accounts, largely works as intended. There are a bunch of caveats though, and the consensus amongst those who’ve had time with the streaming service is that it’s good, but not quite ready for prime time. It’s also erratic, and there’s an image quality problem – so, unsurprisingly, most feel that it’s better to play on consoles or PCs.
