However, it is not unprecedented for one-time games crackers to switch sides. This writer personally knew three individuals who jumped from the 1980′s Commodore 64 demo scene to land decent jobs at Ocean, Imagine and distributor Mastertronic.
But there are more famous examples.
In the 1990′s (and as can be seen from the video embedded below, 50 secs in), an individual known as SS Captain roamed the cracktro high seas with a group called Katharsis.
Two decades on he’s better known as Marcin Iwinski, CEO of CD Projekt.
