I would recommend that in any case. Most people don't want ActiveX controls running on their computer because of the possibility of exploits.

Isn't Silverlight included in Windows Updates? I know mine pulled it off at some stage. If it is, then mostly all Windows users could view your game.

One thing I forgot to say is that activex controls need registering on a computer before they will run. It is easy to do this on your own computer, for testing, but to do the registering process through html (for visitors to your website) it is more difficult.

There is a step by step tutorial here

I will probably stick with .NET, but thank you for your time :)

Even if I cant get my game browser based, could I still make a high score system for people to submit their high score and then a database or something will put it out on my website? That would be so cool.

Yeah that would be pretty easy to do with ASP.NET + SQL Server Express.

Microsoft is currently promoting it a lot; a lot of the TV/video site things use Silverlight more and more, I wonder what the market percentage will be in a couple of months.
