I bought Dark Reign today as well. About to try it out.
We've reached out to them to see what's up, and why they backed it on XBLIG. The $5 price point on the service is high, but it could be an attempt to test the waters, and see if XBLIG can turn into a GOG.
Personally, I'm all for it. I'd love to see larger pubs/devs op onto XBLIG to show that it's a viable maket and attract more attention to it.
We've recently started a thread on App Hub geared towards attracting more talent and large teams on XBLIG, then two days later this happens.
" We have worked out a deal with Activision to remake the game. The art assets are fully authorized. The legal issues has been reviewed by Activision's lawyer. Dark Reign Redux is a remake game QA'ed by Activision." - Magnetar Games
Here's the link, but you need an XNA dev account to view it.
