10 Worst Moments In 2016's Biggest Video Games

5. Niantic Breaking Pokémon GO

Metallica may have claimed they're the 'Lords of Summer' in a new track, but there's one name that absolutely dominated 2016's brightest months: Pokémon GO.

Or at least, it did... for a few weeks, until Niantic removed the tracking functionality inherent to how you play the game (y'know, actually finding said Pokémon), thereby breaking its core appeal. They eventually patched in a 'Sightings' option to give you an indication that a given creature is in your area, but with no idea of what direction or any distance, it makes any sense of filling your Pokédex a case of blind luck.

To this day, you can't reliably play Pokémon GO in any fashion other than walking around and just hoping something of worth will pop up, which is a far cry from the delightful state it first launched in.
