Apparently according to some polls on the internet Newgrounds is declining on search while Kongregate is on the uprise. Honestly I was originally from Kongregate and had a pretty high ranking account, but I switched because I like newgrounds a heck alot better.
Cons: I mean at Kongregate they flag your reviews if you use a single curse word in chat or in a review (your freedoms are really constricted) or even say you dislike a popular game, the users act really immature, you have to buy Kreds to play some games, they don't have flash submission, and leveling up doesn't give you more power as it does here (unless they mod you)
Pros: Kong does have a pretty cool friend system, chat system there is easily accessible, and supposedly they are in union with gamestop and raffle off free video games and consoles (I think it's a scam but who knows) like once a month.
I beleive Newgrounds is better and will make a comeback, but what's your opinion?

Kongregate has a gay name.
Newgrounds has a less gay name.
Newgrounds wins.

I might actually check out Kongregate now that it has been mentioned. There's probably a lot less spam.
I find myself avoiding the flash portal a lot due to the amount of spam that comes in every single day. It discourages me from checking out the rest.

The NG logo moves half an inch forward and Kongregates logo is smooshed against the treads. Newgrounds wins.

Well considering this is Newgrounds I assure you the answers won't be biased at all.

You are on newgrounds, everyone is gonna say newgrounds is better.
And as for the first two pros you listed for kongregate, I'd assume they are coming here with the redesign.

Nah we will slowly decline, I think Tom will have to shut down the site at ~ 2020 due to non-use unless he pulls something awesome out of his arse between now and then.

Kongregate sounds like consumate...

It is ok to make fun of America. But if you make fun of any other country in a vague or joking way you get banned.

really the only thing that newgrounds has on kongregate is that the forums are slightly better, audio/art portals, and flash movies are allowed alongside games
if you just want to play games (like i'm assuming most visitors to this site are) then kongregate is actually far superior

Newgrounds gives everyone a chance to show their work, a lot of great artists started out right here.
Kongregate takes only good stuff.
Newgrounds offers movies and games
Kongregate offers just games
Newgrounds community is generally older and more mature than kongregate.
Don't get me wrong Kongregate is good, but newgrounds is better.
illicit makes a damn good signature.

Yes I think Kongregate is with Gamestop. I was at GS getting my Pre ordered Fallout NewVegas Collector's Edition or atleast I thought I was until I hear those fucks sold it to some other bastard. That's another story all together. Any who the TV there was reviewing free flash games and mentioned a game which was originally on NG and wound up on Kongregate.

I've always been torn between which site is better. Probably why I've been going to both for a few years now.

This is the first time I've ever heard of Kongregate, but I'm sure its community is less retarded than the 12 year-old infested NG forums.

Kongregate is made out of normal penises.
Newgrounds is made from penicorn penises.
