gaypornolover's Review
Thanks for another excellent review! I can't believe the struggle you went through to try and get a refund.. you clearly have patience.
It's a real shame about the streaming only videos because the site itself looks like it has a great mix of niches and types of guys, but thanks for the warning. Think I'll steer clear... but it's interesting how you managed to get the price down, mainly by chance however. I've come across a few sites that once you've gone to the sign up page and closed the window, a pop-up appears offering you a discount. I generally always try this tack before I subscribe to a site!

littlejoe's Review
Have you tried cam4.com? Great selection of models, and is free - unless you decide to tip. most of the models will perform for the whole room without going private. I'm getting quite addicted. I'd appreciate your views...

Welcome to PU. Great to have another gay guy on!!!
I think I briefly subscribed to this site, but like you, was disappointed at the lack of nudity. Sausage Party started off well, but became more and more staged as they tried to incorporate orgy scenes like Guys Go Crazy. I found it far less hot than GGC and actually commented on the site. They never posted my critique however!
Look forward to more reviews!

Thanks for another great review! I've seen a couple of clips from these events downloaded onto Xtube, which seemed hot. Judging from the preview, this has a homemade feel, which is refreshing after all the glossy, gift wrapped sites we seem to see...

|
Pros: |
+Good production values
+Reasonably frequent updates
+Increasing number of HD quality videos
+Around 300 exclusive videos |
Cons: |
- Navigation very basic
-No model search index
-Photo sets not downloadable as zip files
-The bulk of the photo sets are taken from the video shoot
-No bonus material |
Bottom Line: |
Man Avenue is what I'd call your bog-standard, bread and butter "entry level" gay porn site.
It focusses mainly on solo videos. Not a problem for me, as that's what I'm into.
The videos are shot with excellent production values, another "glossy" site of mainly muscular/athletic guys. The producers have, however, chosen to add cheesy music (think Richard Clayderman) to a lot of the solo videos. Now, I think I'm broadminded, but I don't know anyone who finds Richard Clayderman sexy...
There are a few duo videos, but that's as hardcore as it gets...
Updates happen about once a week and videos are around the 15 minute mark.
The newer videos are all shot in HD. I'd say that accounts for about a quarter of them. All are available in WMV, m4v and quicktime, and all are also downloadable to iPhone.
There are only one or two stand alone photo galleries, the vast majority being photos of the video shoots And yet again, photosets can't be downloaded as a zip file. There isn't any slideshow function either, so each photo has to be opened individually. Annoying.
The navigation is poor. All videos are posted in date order and there's no search function. Even worse is that there are several videos of the same guy, but there's no link to their other shoots, so you have to trawl through the 300 odd videos to find what you want.
All are fully downloadable and download speeds seem ok.
The site also lacks bonus material. For $24.95 you'd expect a little more material. There is a blog, but the videos shot in the blog also appear on the main site, so it appears a bit of a cop out. It would be also good to have the facility to comment on the videos.
Billing seems reasonably secure by CCBill or Epoch.
All in all this is a pretty average site. Some nice looking guys, some good photography, but for the price you'd be better off with something like Randy Blue, Blake Mason or English Lads, which are far more interactive, have a bigger back catalogue and seem to update more frequently. |

Allicide's Comment
i must concur with allicide here. Although I'm not criticising the professional reviewers at all,in fact I find their posts very informative, there is a lack of gay reviewers and members here generally. It probably does reflect the population in general, but I've looked for similar sites like this one aimed at a specific gay market, and there's none, only sites which are probably sponsored by certain companies, blogs, or else just one person reviewing all material. Nothing touches the depth and interactivity of this site. I only hope more gay people will post. I intend to do my bit, but perhaps a little marketing from PU could get more gay contributors...

It's definitely worth a punt, but it is very glossy. Downloads work fine, although, as I'm not very good with computers, I found i could download straight to my external HD, instead I had to download to my downloads file and then transfer. Think I'm still getting used to my mac!

Status: |
Current Member for less than 1 month (at the time of review).
|
Pros: |
+Frequent uploads
+Excellent production values
+Bonus section
+Videos available in windows, quicktime and flash
+Some HD videos |
Cons: |
- Pictures not downloadable as zip files
- Not all videos in HD
- Some models don't have separate galleries
-Although models are generally very hot, all of the same "type" i.e. facial hair, generally white, 25-40, but I suppose it's the niche. |
Bottom Line: |
Men at Play is an extremely well known site catering for those who like men in suits. The videos are very well produced, usually with a plot, great sets and some good performances. The production values are extremely high. Some people may find them a bit "glossy", but this seems to be the high end market they're trying to attract.
Uploads are frequent, generally 3 x weekly. The content is a mixture of plot based movies, solo, casting and audition videos, all revolving around guys in ( and out of) business suits.
There are over 360 videos shared between the above categories and over 130 original picture galleries. The pictures are generally 600x900. The pics are easy to flick through, with a slide show option, but for some reason are not downloadable as zip files, which is a real pain! There are also screencaps of all the movies.
The videos come in low, medium and high quality, with the later ones in HD and all are available in quicktime, flash and wmv and are fully downloadable.
There are four bonus sites which have five or six scenes from the following sites: Blue Blake, Colt, Kristian Bjorn and Michael Lucas, as well as a frequently updated blog. The bonus sites only offer limited content which isn't updated that often, so I wouldn't really factor this into reasons for joining the site.
There is a very good model search facility and the opportunity for members to rate and comment on models and videos, which seems fairly well used by members.
At $25.95 the price isn't too bad given the quality of the content, and it's amazing the variety of scenarios/niches played out in what would seem like a fairly narrow category. A good mix of solo/fucking/rimming and roleplay - all very light if you're into heavier stuff, however.
This site has become a bit of an institution in the gay porn world and is definitely worth a look. However if you're not into polished, scripted scenes with plot, great sets and filming, but rather porn with a more amateur feel, then this isn't the site for you. However, with the current trend for rough around the edges, amateur or gonzo porn, this does come as a bit of a breath of fresh air. I doubt if it would sustain my interest for months and months, but certainly worth joining once to download the material.
What stops it from getting 90+ is the inability to download pictures as zip files, the fact that a minority of the videos are in HD and that the glossiness can be a bit stilted at times. But recommended nonetheless. |

MargulisAZ's Comment
Obviously, i'm more into the male cams, but Cam4.com is the cam site I keep returning to. Although some models (and they're mainly women) will only do stuff for tips, the vast majority, certainly of men, are amateurs who will perform for free. Anyone who visits this site will see action without having to pay. Of course, for that 1-1 experience, then tipping is recommended.

Yes, the live shows are the hottest. I agree about Kink's polished style. And again, there are those frustrating interviews pre and post match. But I got my value from the site.

Status: |
Current Member for over 1 month (at the time of review).
|
Pros: |
+Excellent production values
+A lot of content available in high definition
+Fully downloadable content, not DRM
+Download in flash, wmv and mpeg4
+133 videos, which includes 770+ scenes_
+Pics downloadable as zip file. |
Cons: |
-No system for browsing through pictures, have to open each one separately.
-Content can become repetitive
-Model search facility could be better
-All pics are only screencaps, no original model pictures
-$34.95 expensive for one month fee, although incentives if stay a second month, or are member of more than one Kink.com site. |
Bottom Line: |
This is another offering from the ever professional and high quality Kink.com network of sites.
This is more than just a nude all male wrestling site. The guys are generally quite hot, and the matches seem to be taken extremely seriously, with three rounds, plus a sex round, where the winner gets to do what he wants with his loser. These guys are serious about the contest and are skilled wrestlers. Obviously, this being a kink.com site, the rules are slightly different, additional points being won for ass-fingering, cock stroking etc.
The site includes a forum which is regularly added to, and there are live shows every month or so, where fights take place in front of an audience and members can chat whilst the match is taking place.
Updates are every week-10 days, and the videos are lengthy, at about an hour each. All videos are available at 960x540, and are in three resolutions low, medium and high quality. The videos are also broken down into smaller scenes.
The strengths of this site are definitely the concept and the videos, it's the pictures that let it down.
Although the site boasts 33,360+ pictures, they are all screencaps from the videos. It could really use some different photos of the models. Although the pics can be downloaded as zip files, when viewing them on the site, there is no slideshow facility so you have to open each picture separately.
There is a model search function, which gives you the models basic stats, and a link to all their videos on the Kink.com network. The problem is that when you click on a video you are directed to the videos on the Kink ppv site, so, even if you are a member of the sites (and I'm a member of 2 Kink sites) you cannot open the videos unless paying, so you have to remember the video, go back to the original site, and try and find it... This is disappointing from a company that really does produce excellent material and is so professional in every other way.
At $34.95, the site is expensive. The fees go down if you subscribe for two months or more, and if you are a member of one site, you can get another membership for $19.99 I believe.
This is a high quality site, well thought out with a great concept and excellent production values. There are a few problems with the pictures and search facility, and the content can become repetitive. But I'd definitely recommend it for a month or so, to download the material. |

It's part of the Tainster network. They have a bisexual site too. I must admit, judging from the tour, it does look a bit complicated to navigate, and the preview is a bit weird...

Thanks for the tip. The gay site, Guys Go Crazy is part of this franchise (with some of the same male performers). I was thinking of joining but will think twice after your comments...

Thanks for the great review. Surprisingly there are quite a lot of these sites around. This seems like one of the better ones that's been reviewed.

Was a member approx. 3 months prior to this review.
|
Pros: |
Beautiful models
high production values
good rate of uploads
great member interactivity
Easy to navigate, well designed site
Well thought out live shows, with a good back catalogue.
Videos divided into sections so easy to find parts that interest you. |
Cons: |
Limited range of models
Actual sex content can become quite staid |
Bottom Line: |
This is a high quality site with very attractive models, and regular uploads. There is increasing member activity through live shows, which are very successful, and the whole impression is that of a family involving its members.THe site is easy to navigate and looks good. Good range of photo uploads too. The only downsides are that sexually, the content is often quite unoriginal, and there seems to be a limited range of exclusive models, who are not that diverse in "type".
However, all in all, this is one of the leading sites and is well worth joining, if only, perhaps for amonth or too, before holding off a couple of months and rejoining when there's enough new content. |

I totally agree. I love this site, and have been a member almost from day one. The only site I've kept my subscription to. Actually at least 4 of the models have been on First auditions and, actually, Straight Hell (I only know because of the trailers I've seen on porn blogs...) I think they used these guys in the early weeks to get the site up and running. But I agree, a unique site, and very hot. Great review btw!
