10 Recent Video Games Sent Out To Die

6. Five Nights At Freddy's Security Breach

Considering Five Night at Freddy's has released 16 games over eight years, it looks like the series has no intention of slowing down. This is a shame since FNaF really should take a sabbatical, considering how badly the latest follow-up, Security Breach, turned out.

To this game's credit, Security Breach isn't just more of the same. Unlike the other entries, this sequel focuses on free-roaming gameplay, meaning you need totally new strategies to avoid ending up in the jaws of those abominable animatronics.

However, mixing up the formula isn't always a blessing. Thanks to an onslaught of glitches, animatronics clip through walls, freeze up, or fail to notice when you sail past them. Sometimes, they get caught in an animation loop, which makes them look hilarious rather than scary.

Just when you thought Security Breach couldn't be more frustrating, the game disables the save system near the end, meaning you lose up to half an hour of progress every time you die. Why would the developers insert this feature except to piss you off?

Even though FNaF has been criticised for rehashing the jumpscare shtick, playing Security Breach for five minutes will make you feel nostalgic for the old games.
