Also, here's a JavaScript game done in WebGL: http://www.playtankworld.com/ http://www.playtankworld.com/
There're a lot of ways to appreciate a programming language, just like there're lots of ways to appreciate different forms of art. JavaScript is a messy yet versatile language these days. It's not as fast as C, but you can do a lot of things with comparatively very little code in a very accessible way.

The game uses a custom 3D engine which only uses the basic canvan rendering functions. The engine does not use WebGL because most people don't have enabled it yet." So no, it's not WebGL. :)
