Performance: How fast is fast enough? We may not be able to make Battlefield 3 run in a browser yet, but there is a whole host of games that are possible, and are still a step-change in graphics compared to the 2D flash games.
We've got demos that are full rigid body simulations[1], 3rd-person shooters[2], fun little arcade games[3] and more[4]
Libraries: Three.js is great, but it's not a game engine. For games, the tool chain does exist though! At PlayCanvas[5] we've got a engine, visual editor, asset management, and publishing support. No WebGL knowledge required :-)
And because we're doing everything hosted in the browser, it gives us some cool bonuses, like real-time collaboration, cross-platform/device support, access from any browser.
