Hi, Hmm. The Safari not responding is definitely interesting. I haven't try the link for the game you play, but I felt compelled to try it so I might go look it up again.
As for Safari not always showing you the things the way you want them. Keep in mind they're of course two different browsers, and will sometimes present things differently than the way it is done in Windows, or even by your screen reader. I'd like to point out here that, though Safari works very well for me, it is not capable of showing everything such as song titles and so-forth on some web pages for radio stations. This is not a limitation to the Mac or VoiceOver, however because the developer might have chosen to use an ActiveX control. This is most likely the case on other pages as well. It's at least something to consider.
