Interesting article for the submission form more so than the fact that MS turned it down. This type of things happen all the time, hindsight is 20/20 and I'm sure it was a reasonable choice with the information they were given at the time.
Reading the submission form, though, not only gives you a much more clear idea of what this game is about which makes it sound like a ton of fun, but even the budget of it which is important in its own right. 3million dollars for a fancy looking downloadable title like this.
edit: on the second look that's actually partial funding, so how much more than 3m the game development costs is difficult to say.
