Google Stadia is a cloud game streaming service that launched in November 2019 to a lot of excitement. Unfortunately, the lack of games and technical issues when it comes to resolution and image quality have harmed the reputation of the service.
Luckily, Stadia Pro — a $10-a-month subscription service — is adding a lot of amazing games as part of the subscription in June. Today, Google revealed that on June 1, five new titles will be added. Although Stadia Pro is typically $10 a month, new users who sign up for Stadia before June 3 will receive a two-month free trial of Stadia Pro. On June 3, Google will be changing the current Stadia Pro offer from two free months to one free month for new users. Lastly, the Stadia free trial started April 8 and existing Stadia Pro subscribers also received an additional two months of Stadia Pro at no additional charge.

And don't forget, The Elder Scrolls Online is also coming to Stadia Pro on June 16. The Greymoor expansion launches soon and that's going to be available for purchase separately from the looks of it.

Lenovo Chromebook Flex 5i review: The best Chromebook's shadow clone
You could be forgiven for looking at the Lenovo Chromebook Flex 5i and mistaking it for the most popular and best-valued Chromebook on the market today. The Flex 5i has very few differences this year, which makes it a solid laptop — that you probably shouldn’t buy right now.
