Time is running short for the science fiction MMO known as Tabula Rasa and the end of the month signals a shutdown for the roughly 18 month old game. Promoted as the brain child of industry veteran Richard Garriott, creator of the Ultima series, it had a bumpy launch and unfortunately suffered disappointing sales. Deciding to cut their losses, NCsoft has pledged to pull the plug. Making a return to pay their respects was a given, but TenTonHammer was a little surprised at what they found.
