I've noticed there's no flash videos of Descent at newgrounds.com Can anybody tell me why there isn't any?

Because no one has submitted one.

Yeah but why hasn't nobody submitted one?

Jbomb already made one. It ends with a man plucking a fish off of his genitals.

Flash didn't Exist when Descent was in it's hayday. And most descenters never got into flash. Much easier to make a demo.

Why use flash when you can just make a demo and rip it via fraps and turn it into a music video?

Duper - strictly speaking it did, but of course that doesn't mean anyone used it.

Dang it.. I KNEW someone would trump me on that!

You are right, of course, it hasn't really been "common place" until about 5 years ago... bandwidth and folks getting familiar with it blah blah blah..

Flash is a terrible format to create a movie out of!

There are loads of excellent .MPGs of Descent gameplay: I have 3 or 4

I think he meant a parody of Descent in flash.

What's the point? O.o

I mean, sure, it could be funny ... but most Flash videos fail at that anyway.

If you want an Idea of what can REALLY be done with flash.. check THIS out.

The d/ls are free. The last couple of episodes are amazing. Chapter 12 is the latest.
