NewGrounds Reviews Summary

The company enjoys a solid reputation for offering a diverse range of user-generated content, including games, animations, and music, which many customers find entertaining and engaging. The community aspect is also highlighted, fostering creativity and collaboration among users. However, concerns arise regarding the site's rating system, perceived trolling behavior, and the presence of adult content, which some feel detracts from the overall experience. Despite these issues, the platform's commitment to user-generated creativity remains a strong draw, suggesting that improvements in moderation and community management could enhance user satisfaction further.

A Great Community
November 21, 2020

This site surely has its heart in the right place. Very few or even no ads. Been going forever. Quality place to be!

If you enjoy carbon copy clones, sign up! Everyone emulates one another, argues with one another, and ignores one another. Then they claim to be a 'community'

Truly laughable.

The rating system needs to be overhauled. There is a huge culture of "zero bombing" whereby users systematically and anonymously vote 0 on projects in order to drastically reduce the projects' scores, perhaps partly to get their own projects higher up on ranking lists. Therefore, most projects go by unseen, with ratings that do not reflect merit, and users whose projects are zero bombed may be inclined to do the same to counteract, resulting in a vicious cycle. This is an issue not only for artists but also perusers, who due to this will not get to experience many high-quality projects. The issue is especially prevalent in the audio section, but is also a problem in other areas. The community at large has complained about this issue for many, many years and offered many suggestions to fix this, including fraudulent vote detection, which a site like this should have but strangely Newgrounds seems to lack, at least to any effective capacity. Until Newgrounds can overhaul their primitive and backwards voting system they get a "one bomb" from me (no zero available here unfortunately), and unlike the aforementioned ratings on Newgrounds, this score is intended to be accurate.

Full of entertainment
November 4, 2018

I've spent a lot of time on this website when I was a teenager. It was really great then and it still is now. Always full of an endless supply of funny games and videos.

I just love this website for everyone. I like watching the cartoon movies people make and I love the music. It also has a lot of fun free games to play. You can add games, movies or music and other people rate them, which is fun. Newgrounds also has a very good forum

Nothing really to say. This is the original site for flash animation and games. There's so much of an underculture to it and influential series that you wouldn't believe. It's declined in recent days though.

A great gathering of any flash content - movies, games, slides etc. Accessible from everywhere - so this can also be a great timekiller while waiting for something =)

I tend to stick to the first page animations and games these days but several years ago I devoured this place nearly everyday. I saw a lot of bad things on there as a child, even though I stayed away from anything labeled "mature" or "adult" (they have a rating system but not everyone uses it correctly).

Still, if you're bored and looking for entertainment, there's years of free animations, games, music, and art to brighten your day with. A lot of the stuff is aimed at a more geeky audience but there's something for everyone if you're willing to look for it.

Good site
July 1, 2015

This is the best flash video site. While I would give this site 4 stars instead of 5 is because they allow adult content. Other than that it's great. That's about it.

I bookmarked Newgrounds.com when I was in middle-school. That was almost ten years ago. Newgrounds.com is still in my bookmarks. Need I say more?

(Please note, My reviews are completely opinion-based. In other words, just from MY experience from the respective website.)

I love a lot of the animations on newgrounds, there are many talented users on there. It's over all a pretty good place for flash games, flash animations, music, and much more. Tom Fulp did a pretty good job. 5/5

Site has more interesting unique user made games, music and movies than you could ever absorb. Lots of great quality stuff, makes the stuff people try to charge you for look like complete garbage.

Like another reviewer said, this site is all about its own motto "Everything, by Everyone." This site brings together a lot of flash movies, games, and even self created music. A lot of these works end up being collaborations by many of the community, and seeing ones with some of the "well-known" users, you know you are in for a treat.

Be careful around the site however, this community has its share of trolls, bullies, etc. There is also a porn section, however they don't wholly promote it on the front page, and have an 18+ warning to ensure that youngin's try to stay away from that area.

Many laughs will be given on this site, and many s#! Ts will NOT be given from the site.
