This should be a slap in the face that current generations are making Angry Birds and Farmville, and these guys feel it is still upon them to do anything in the way of progress. It's just shameful.

Alternatively, those guys' actions then were the past which led to this present, of which they are ashamed.

Who better to do version two than the people involved in version one?
