For all practical purposes we do:

The Shockwave plugin was an executable engine you could download and 
install once, and then play a wide range of scripted interactive media 
with it.

A LiveCode standalone is an executable engine you can download and 
install once, and then play a wide range of scripted interactive media 
with it.

The differences are that Shockwave was confined to the limitations of a 
browser window. And that it no longer exists.

LiveCode lives outside the confines of a browser window, allowing full 
desktop integration (cache control, document associations, etc.). And 
LiveCode exists. :)
