JavaScript/HTML 5 Gaming?

cjcela writes "Lately I've seen some HTML 5/JavaScript games popping up on the web. Most of them lack sound, and are not polished, but little by little this is changing. As an example, check Galactic Plunder. While it is only a single-level proof of concept, it is one of the first arcade non-Flash games that I've found playable. Do you know of other comparable or better pure JavaScript games?"

Total Shameless Plug: We've got some very neat BGs

[Qbertino]

Total Shameless Plug (TM):
We've got some very neat Browsergames in our top line, such as OGame, Ikariam or Guild 1400 aka 'Europe 1400' (english name), all of them have scored multiple independant awards and are state of the art. No arcade stuff yet, but we've totally pushed the envelope in Flash with the upcoming release of Warpfire It's internal Beta right now and maybe will get a slightly different name and branding when it goes public beta shortly, but it really rocks.

We've got a stash of generic BG stuff that's isn't very spectacular and I usually don't recommend, but the aforementioned ones all are developed inhouse by very dedicated teams and gamedesigners and are definitely worthwhile checking out. Last winters big OGame Facelift for instance had a crew of 10 working almost 2 years to pimp the UI with JavaScript - don't try to run in on an iPhone though :-)

Thus endeth my Plug for a very cool employer I happen to work for. :-)
Have fun!
