I get your point, but you should remember that we all have learned things the "wrong" way for the sake of brevity before we moved on to learning the best way. Despite the flaws, I still think the tutorial is a great introduction to breaking down the steps of creating a game.

Absolutely! I can look back at the set of tutorials that I myself wrote while I was learning JavaScript and HTML5, and there's a bunch of stuff that makes me blush now - including among other things using jQuery and this quote: "Learn jQuery and love it." For the sake of completeness (and cannon fodder for anyone who wants to criticize) it's here: http://www.iguanademos.com/Jare/docs/html5/Lessons/

My concern was perhaps due to expectations about the quality of the site's content, as people were talking about where it stood compared to w3schools and even MDN.
