Are you saying that if I want to play sub standard browser versions of PC games on my new SteamBox I can do because there's a Linux version of Flash? Whoopee. I don't follow how UE3 and/or Cryengine supporting export to Flash contradicts my point either.dynamiteReady wrote:http://www.joystiq.com/2011/10/06/hold-on-ue3-crytek-is-investigating-flash-for-cryengine-cr/ http://wearemultiplayer.com/cryengine-in-flash-soon-2 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d2AlI8EmX80 Hold on... http://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/182780/Adobe_hopes_for_more_Flash_developers_with_Game_Developer_Tools.php#.UNZTIlLmgUQ ...

Microsoft, Google and Netflix are that “somebodyâ€, having submitted a proposed modification to HTML5 to the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) for “encrypted media extensionsâ€.
Their proposed addition, detailed here and picked apart here, has drawn a flat rejection from HTML5 editor and Google employee Ian Hickson, who’s called the encrypted media extensions unethical.
