Spider-Man PS4 Turf Wars Review: 3 Ups & 4 Downs

Downs...

4. There Are Still Dialogue Bugs

Spider-Man PS4 Turf Wars Spider Bot
Insomniac

As opposed to the base Spider-Man title, both pieces of downloadable content haven't been entirely bug-free. The Heist had some issues with dialogue where subtitles would appear seconds before audio, and Turf Wars has the added doozy of dialogue not playing at all.

In several instances, when dialogue was required to advance the story, nothing would play. There was one occasion where I couldn't actually leave a mission area until a phone call played, but it took almost a minute for anything to happen once the character's icon appeared.

It's nothing game-breaking, but it is frustrating when the base title boasted such a great degree of polish.

Content Producer/Presenter

WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well. In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
