Japanese company TECMO has cancelled the development of their MMORPG BASTARD! Online, a game that was based on a cartoon under the same name. The game's official site has closed with a notice left there. According to the official, the cancel of the game is due to the too long development time which TECMO can't afford. Besides, they made the decision based on their market forecasting. BASTARD! Online should have been TECMO's first ever MMO, but now we have to wait.
