I haven't seen any confirmation either way through the released information but they'll probably cycle some in and remove some like they did with the old psnow service.

Well, it depends. Do you want to own it perpetually or are you okay with having to continuously pay for a subscription to be able to access it?
It's been on PlayStation Au for a few weeks.
Pricing:
1 month $21.95/ 3 months $63.95/ 12 months $154.95
That's a great list of games. I had a very strong feeling that Demon's Souls PS5 was going to be included with this but I'm also happily surprised to see GoT PS5 as well.
If that's what they chose to show off then I would hate to see what they decided to hold back from that announcement.
$100/yr for a tier that includes pretty much every major PS4 and PS5 exclusive, sans the ones from the last year or so, is a phenomenal deal. When I got my PS5 late last year, I bought Tsushima, Demon's Souls, Returnal, and even went back and got a couple of latter PS4 games like Gravity Rush 2 that I'd missed. If this service would've been around then, I would've gladly paid the $100. It's not a Game Pass competitor, but it's also almost half the price.
I'm a little bummed about the PSP collection (or lack thereof), but I suppose that's what PPSSPP and my Backbone on my iPhone are for (for all the PSP games I legally own the ROMs of).

Ghost of Tsushima's been on my list for a while. So glad to see it there. Considering a physical copy of the Director's Cut is still going for $90 fucking dollars Canadian on Amazon, it almost pays for itself.
Probably smart of them to focus on offering better newer games than putting attention/effort on the old stuff. That being said, the classic lineup that I'm seeing is really weak, and as a somewhat caught up PS5 owner, nothing in the new lineup does anything for me either. Looks like I'm going to stick with the base plan for the time being.
Did they say Sackboy won`t come to the service? No.
Just wait a few more months if you don`t want to buy the game.
Prob less what they chose to show off and more what they've finalized the licensing of. Ridge Racers 2 leaked for example and it's not listed.
The Japanese line up shows less classic games than here in the West.

Something that sucks is that it seems like PS2 games that are already available on PS4 are what are being used for this service currently which probably means it's just those shitty PS2 Classic versions. That sucks because the emulation for those PS2 Classics on PS4 was absolutely rotten, particularly from an input latency standpoint and not to mention from a features standpoint (or lack thereof). Also, I want to say some number of PS4's PS2 Classics just straight up don't work on PS5 (probably not an issue with any of the games listed)? I really hope Sony uses this as an opportunity to update the emulation in those releases via patches otherwise that's now PS2 and PS3 that are absolutely not selling points for me as it relates to this service.
Glad I waited on the PS5 versions of Ghost of Tsushima and Death Stranding. Dunno when I'll get to them, but it's pretty awesome that they're on there.
Though I've played most of the PS4/5 games on the list that I'm interested in, I know a handful of people IRL that have been interested in a big chunk of that list but haven't had the money to buy them. I'll send them the blog post and see if they're in the money for the new sub.
I think it looks great from the standpoint of onboarding gamers new to the PS ecosystem.

I suppose some of them (third party titles) will leave after several months, just like it happens on GamePass and PS Now
Alright this got my attention. Several games my brother and I want to play, so if we split the subscription it's a win win. And it's cheaper in LATAM ($40, $67, $77, though no streaming officially supported here)
That's pretty good,
I Could definitely see myself subbing for at least a few months when I can finally track down a PS5 just to play Demon Souls and Ghosts of Tsushima especially since either of those games don't really seems to be dropping in price too much.

I wouldn't say definitively one way or the other. The PS2 games on the list are all from the PS2 on PS4 program, which is already available on PSNow. We won't be able to say for sure until they add something new.
I don't think they've said yes or no yet but they didn't always on PS Now. Many first party titles were only available for three month blocks, others were premenant additions.
I've been wanting DeS PS5 and GoT for a while, so it's great for me. If Ratchet was on here it would basically eliminate my PS5 wishlist entirely. If this list is any indication of future additions, Ratchet will show up eventually too. So if you're patient like me this subscription might eliminate any need to buy first-party Sony games again, putting them in the same bucket as Xbox. Basically Nintendo games will be the only ones I'm actually buying a la carte from here on out.
I'm actually really pleased with these announcements. I'll sign up for Extra, plus I get to play the PS1/PSP games I already bought (if they ever release, but still) without going to Premium. This is a really solid catalog with basically every game I've been wanting to play minus Ratchet.
Don't know how to feel about this. Not super compelling IMO.

- Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales | Insomniac Games, PS4/PS5
I was looking forward to play this but well…
Otherwise looks decent. Just that I was going to upgrad right when the service goes on line but I guess I'll wait and see for a bit.
Sony is removing PSN cards from the market?
This is news to me, I only knew about old PS Now cards
Still avalaible here in Germany from every retailer, including discounted ones on CD-Keys, Eneba or Instant Gaming
PLAYSTATION STORE GIFT CARD - 100 EUR (Germany)
PlayStation Network (PSN) Karte kaufen - 100 EUR (Deutschland) ✔️ CD Key ✔️ Sofortiger Download ✔️ Fantastischer Preis ✔️ Digitaler Download ✔️

It's a nice set of games but I already own or have played most of them, so there's really nothing for me. This is why day one releases are so critical for me to spend money on a sub - and I realise they're not doing that for first party games but surely they could do some day one indies etc?
Hard disagree. Adding trophies adds yet another hurdle for these games to be re-released, and I never would have expected Sony to honor purchases I made 10-15 years ago on PS3. If/when I can redownload Suikoden and Mega Man X4 to my PS5, I'll be encouraged to buy even more retro games.
None of those classics have been updated for PS4 Pro/PS5 either on a technical level, they still run at 896p, have pretty bad input lag as well.
I hope we either get some PS2 remasters or we get games that are emulated but aren't totally relying on the old PS2 on PS4 library.

The Worms games which are missing were never released in Japan (PAL and NTSC-U only), so I guess that confirms there will continue to be regional differences.
Hell yeah! I can finally play the superior version of Demon's Souls! I think I'll try for the platinum, but I'm already dreading that pure bladestone grind.
I guess I just figured since they added psp and PS1 games which were never on psnow that we would get ps2 games that were never on psnow as well.
The official Sackboy twitter account seemed to hint that it is coming.
