Yeah in the US at least the price is the same. Same with Sackboy for example ($60). Hopefully they do the same for Horizon 2.

Any reason to buy the PS5 version over the PS4 of Miles Morales?

If you buy it digitally yes it does. Don't know how it works with physical PS5 copies of MM though.
There isn't a physical version for PS4, but you have the option to pay the difference and get access to Spider-Man Remastered via the menu.
The reason to get the PS5 version ist o have the PS5 version on a disc rather than the need to download it. For me, I'm getting the PS5 version of Miles but the PS4 version of Sackboy because I'll want to play multiplayer so it makes sense to get the PS4 version there.
I know the OP is largely addressing Miles, but he did mention all games also... sonfrom a physical standpoint, for me, it depends on the game...
Assassin's Creed : Valhalla - I have every AC game available at the moment on PS4 (wish the original AC was available), I'll keep the series going as long as possible on the one platform.
Immortals : Fenyx Rising - New IP, PS5...
Watch Dogs : Legion - will complete the "Trilogy Collection" on PS4
LEGO Skywalker Saga - No direct links to past LEGO games, PS5.
Dirt 5 - unsure, the 3 Dirt Games on PS3, 1 Dirt game on PS4, so there isn't a big connection to the current gen, but I like the idea of ending on 5 for a series, so likely PS4.
Far Cry 6 - as above, starting new from 6, seems like my plan, so PS5.
Planet Coaster : Console Edition - New Console Port, PS5.
For Miles, just going to go PS5, to get the remaster of the original from the start.
All that being said, there is a high chance of me double dipping on maybe titles eventually, even if it's to increase the collection via cheap preowned versions

It's weird but the idea of inserting PS4 discs into my PS5 in order to play the PS5 versions of those games just seems weird to me, especially if they're sitting in the PS4 section on my shelf, so I think I'm just gonna go digital for most of these cross-gen games. It helps that Miles Morales isn't getting a steelbook, as I usually try to collect those.
Given that the PS4 version was cheaper and it lets you get the PS5 version for free, PS4 was the easy choice.
Looking at this like a Zelda situation (Breath of the Wild and Twilight Princess both being cross-gen titles), I suspect the PS4 version will be a smaller print and thus more collectible over time.
I know Spider-Man is a big enough name to probably mean there will still be tons of copies out there one or two years down the line but sooner or later Sony will probably discontinue the PS4 physical disc and only leave it as a digital title on last gen.

Yes. at least in the US.

This true? Even if I buy it on PS4 and only later boot it up on a PS5? There's an option to buy regular Spidey "remake" within the game? That helps a great deal.
Maybe in the preowned market, but not so for personal value. The PS5 transition is going to be really sloooooooooow. If even I have no plans to get a PS5 right now, then some people who were slower than me in getting a PS4 might simply never get a PS5. If I want to give my copy of Miles Morales to them eventually after I've played it, then it has to be the PS4 release.
I have the ps5 version pre ordered but I guess I switch to PS4 since basically means I get two copies. That way I can let my nephew borrow the PS4 version when I'm done with it.
You get all that when you buy the PS4 version when it upgrades for free to the PS5 version.
if backwards compatibility is there then take advantage of it.
it is? I thought only the ultimate edition

It's a free upgrade to PS5 MM...
Ultimate Edition is the only edition that comes with Spider-Man Remastered.
You can only upgrade to it from PS4 if you upgrade to PS5 MM Ultimate Edition (which is like $10?).
But MM PS4 to MM PS5 is free.
I think both ways are free. If you purchase the PS5 digital edition you get the PS4 Digital game as well.
If you can find the PS4 version cheaper than the PS5 version, i'd get this version. You get the PS5 upgrade for no extra charge as well.
