Star Wars
Star Wars franchise has released two very nice online games. You download a small EXE and play the game online. Levels are downloaded as you progress in the game.
So why aren't more games like this?
http://www.starwars.com/games/playnow/r2d2_quest/ - is Lego Quest for R2D2. From the very successful Lego franchise, you play a Lego character running around with your Light Saber killing droids and solving puzzles.
http://www.clonewarsadventures.com/ - is Clone Wars Adventures online world where people meet and play within the Star Wars universe. I've only played the training quests, but this one could go far. In beta at the moment, but worth the time as installation is no effort.
Enjoy.
