I'm curious, just what do you mean by shitty programmers?  In the real 
world do you seriously expect game writers (ie people trying to screw the
maximum performance out of a machine) to worry about their program being
a little incompatible with future generations of chips?  Particularly if they
are not even aware of the these new machines etc when the software is written.
Maybe you would prefer it if the games were a little slower or a little less
impressive, but I certainly wouldn't.
