News Corp. wants to buy videogame website Newgrounds

I actually met Tom on a random encounter. I happened to be working for Satanic Video Game Cult Gamestop at the time of his Alien Homonid launch and he just strolled into the store to ask about the game. Seemed like a real down to earth person. I shot the shit with him for like 20 minutes about AH and NG. He'd probably sell a child on the black market over selling NG.

I don't think Tom would ever sell. Tom has made flash gaming what it is today and not only does the site specialize in flash gaming, but they also do flash animations and have a huge support network for game developers including an audio portal, game ads, etc. Chances of Tom selling are 0! Ps. Thanks for posting a video of 'The Last Stand 2' :) Daniel CEO of Armor Games

Newgrounds has been around for a long long time. It is surprising that no one has bought them, Fulp must be true to his word to stay independent.
