The clone they shut down is a blatant rip-off and Bizarre diserves the right to do whatever they want to protect their ip from such an obvious attack. The graphics were even exactly the same.

While I agree that they need to protect there IP as much as possible, wasn't this just some guy creating it as a pet project, and giving full credit to Bizarre?

I'm not sure about that, but I saw screenshots and everything looked exactly like the game. They didn't sue the guy, they just shut him down.

No, I believe it's just a stop operations warning. He wasn't charging for the game, so I don't think they would do that right off the bat.
