In 2006, Ars Technica published an April Fool's article[0] declaring that the perennially-forthcoming Duke Nukem Forever would finally see the light of day... as... a browser game! Ho ho, how droll.

Crazy to see how far we've come.

Quake Live did come out as a browser NaCl game a year or so later.

It was a traditional plugin (NPAPI), not NaCl (Native Client). Honestly a total gimmick. I still play Quake Live, though!
