I believe the answer is:

maiden voyage

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'run straight after launch' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'any video game crashes' is the wordplay.
'crashes' indicates an anagram.
'any'+'video'+'game'='anyvideogame'
'anyvideogame' is an anagram of 'MAIDEN VOYAGE'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for maiden voyage that I've seen before include "Ship's first trip" , "journey after cracking bubbly?" , "First and last time out for the Titanic in 1912" , "First trip of vessel" , "For Titanic a disaster" .)
