As a recent convert to moai (http://getmoai.com http://getmoai.com), which is a Lua-based cross-platform environment for game development, I have to say this: hogwash. Cross-platform, easy to use, deliverable as a download for offline use, publishable on the web: a moai project already delivers what this guy is blowing hard about. Its not going away just because he says so. In fact, the future is here already - put your app on the cloud, let users decide if they want to install it locally or not.
