#2asm.js really shines for usecases like this, the fact that they did the port in a week is truly remarkable. GFX/Audio/Multiplayer all works fine, but loading times are pretty slow on Chrome, but for a first version this seems great.
Edit it seems pretty playable in firefox and chrome, don't notice much of a difference performance wise. Now please make a reverse case for PNaCL and pepper.js and we can all get really excited :)

this is C++. now all javascript folks need to learn C and C++.

#5It works really well and I'm glad to see more of this happening. Being able to share games over the web that run at near-native performance levels without plugins has a lot of potential both for end-users and creators. Really cool stuff.

#6While I really see potential of asm.js couple of things about execution (including this title)
1. Brings my browser to its knees (Firefox here)
2. Security. They seem to open themselves up to a whole lot of potential hacks (I hope their code deals with cookie jacking, csrf, sniffing, etc). While this would be a problem with closed source, this is made worse by running it in browser
3. Cheaters. How would they deal with people injecting code and creating bots?

#7Is there a possibility for major titles becoming "asm.js ports"? Games like World of Warcraft, League of Legends, Battlefield series, Starcraft 2, Minecraft, etc.

2. It's javascript running in the browser, it can't do anything that you couldn't already do with javascript running in the browser.
3. The same way that companies currently cope with clients. It's not like client-hacking isn't so common-place that you have to design around it anyway.

2: There's always the option to run the game iframed, served from a subdomain or similar.
3: Cheating has always been possible, in all games. The minified javascript source is still hard to grasp for a game that size.
