I'm on Premium. So far so good. Playing Ape Escape on PS1.
Damn there's so many games it's hard to choose what to play.
If you aren't into the Classic games and Game Trials just stick to Extra.

Could I upgrade to extra...check it out and if I decide I need more, upgrade again later to Premium?
I think that seems like a logical path.
Yes you can. Just upgrade to Extra for a month then Premium if you want it.
Hmmmm, it depends.
The offering of PS3 streaming titles only seems interesting to me in the sense that it features various forgotten gems from the PS3 library (including Heavenly Sword, Puppeteer, Tokyo Jungle, Rain, Echochrome, When Vikings Attack!, Genji: Days of the Blade, Afrika, Eat Them!, Trash Panic, Linger in Shadows or several PixelJunk games), because if you're going into it looking for more well-known mainstream titles, you probably won't find much else other than Red Dead Redemption, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, Resistance 3, the God of War HD Collection, MotorStorm: Apocalypse or a truckload of Ratchet & Clank games.
The PS1 classics are super limited (the few games that standout are Intelligent Qube, Resident Evil: Director's Cut, Syphon Filter and maybe Tekken 2 and Jumping Flash) and not a worth making the jump into the Premium tier. The only reason I'd seriously consider going for the highest tier is that the majority of titles that were remastered/remade for the PS4 generation have all been locked down to this tier (and this is where you'll find Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection, WipEout Omega Collection, BioShock: The Collection, Mafia I & II Definitive Editions, Batman: Return to Arkham, Crysis Remastered or the LocoRoco and Patapon remasters).
So I'd say it all comes down to whether you're interested in revisiting some (mostly niche) titles from the PS3 generation via streaming or have an interest in, say, checking out the Mafia remake. Other than that, I would simply stick to Extra, unless spending $20/year under the promise of having some PS1/PSP favorites of yours arriving to the service down the road is a risk you consider worth taking given that, again, we're only talking about $20 more than the Extra tier.
Yeah, I think Stray will pull a lot of people in.
I got Premium automatically but the difference is so small I would just pay for Premium so you have access to trials, streaming and whatever they add later.
Mmmm you're here already little fishy

Good point... I noticed some PS4 games like FarCry4 are randomly part of Premium and not extra, kinda confusing!
I'm sticking to Essential. It would cost me 120€ to upgrade to Premium and 80€ for Extra for the remaining 726 days I have left for my current subscription. While both is still pretty cheap, I prefer to own my games and it would probably cost me less to buy the few games I'm interested in.
Adding a Crunchyroll subscription would have made me upgrade.

Yeah, I mean Gamepass was including free Crunchyroll for ages and Sony owns it.....
It would really have made it a more appealing deal.
I read they are going to offer NTSC versions for some of them.
it is good or bad?
It was good in 1999. Bad in 2022.
Sony always screwing us PAL gamers. We pay more for inferior products.
