Or maybe they slid it past the publisher, got their advance check, and will never be seen again. How many times have you seen people talking about how publishers (with draconic copy protection, deadlines that put buggy games on the market, etc) just don't understand the game biz? So a couple enterprising guys become a 'software development company' using some fairly simple identity isolation techniques, throw a game together using cut and paste, and defraud a publisher. It's almost poetic justice.
