2D/3D Chess
Back in March 2009, we featured a 3D Chess game by Jacob Seidelin whereby two human players could play a game of chess on a 3D board. Since then, Stefano Gioffré has been busy improving the original base game with a 2D version (not canvas) and a computer controlled opponent.

Can you beat the computer?

This is a pretty neat demo, although I have to wonder, if Stefano has the skills to make it 3D using canvas, why not use Canvas for the 2D version too?

Nice implementation. Unfortunately, I can’t play chess, so I can’t evaluate a computer skill.

Because I like that you could play also with older browsers… Stefano.

Seems to work perfectly in Opera for me, wondering why it’s not flagged for Opera…

Very nicely programmed. The board is great and the user-friendliness is nice. The chess engine is weak, but building a decent chess engine in Javascript is a very difficult project.
Hopefully this will inspire the various chess sites (Week in Chess, Chessbase etc) to either drop their Silverlight chessboards or seriously upgrade their javascript ones.
