Hi Dark, Right. To be honest I've not encountered too many stand alone Flash games and applications myself. Most of the time the Flash apps and games I've had dealings with are web based affairs which is where Flash really shines as an internet technology.
That said, given the cost of Adobe's Flash development tools and IDEs it is more cost effective to write Java applets and servelets using the Sun Java JDK. Once upon a time Java was initially a very internet centered technology, before it became more popular as a general all purpose programming language. However, it still has a very functional use as an aplet language able to produce games and other web applications for far less than Flash.
