Yes it is likely just a mod of an existing game. Matt has said it was nothing more than a concept game that another gaming company brought to Bungie to try to get permission to make Halo DS. Bungie rejected it and someone at the gaming company gave a copy of the concept game to IGN.
Do you seriously think a company that comes up with an idea like that is going to spend hundreds of thousands, maybe a million or two, fully making a new game to show Bungie, or do you think they are going to spend a couple thousand dollars making a mod of an existing game to show as a concept to Bungie? In case you're not sure, they are going to make a mod of a current game to show (yeah that kind of gives away who was pitching the idea to Bungie).
EDIT: Dagnabbit, I wasted my 1,000th post on this topic.
