Gay Porn Reviews

Review date: March 2010

News Flash. A lot of guys over age 30 are hot. Really hot. Twinks and college boys are sweet but sometimes a man is what you need. After all, a 30-something's dick is just as big as a younger guys' -- and he knows how to use it. This will come as no surprise to anyone who watches the almost 300 videos on Men Over 30 . Whether it's in solo, duo, or group performances, these guys can really satisfy your craving for masculine, natural men. And it's just one of the five sites included with 1 Gay Pass.

Tour

Men Over 30 features a mirror tour that takes you through the entire episode index. Just click on the button for "The Meat Rack" or "Exclusive Episode Index" to get a description of each episode complete with photos and an explicit 30 second trailer .

Navigation

Navigation throughout the site is easy. The three most recent updates are featured on the home page, which is also the first page of the episode index. In the left column are buttons for the bonus video feeds that are included, and in the right column are buttons for the additional four sites that are all part of the deal.

The Men and the Action

The model types at Men Over 30 continue with the eclectic mix featured throughout the 1 Gay Pass sites. You'll find white, Latino, African-American, and mixed-race guys who share the characteristics of being good-looking, lean -- and over 30. Most of the episodes are shot on an indoor set

Each video has a "Man Talk" section with a detailed steamy text description of the scene and a video interview. This adds a lot of interest to the site as you get to know the stories of these guys.

Video Details

At review time we counted 230 videos, of which approximately 25% are duo and group action. There is a complete picture and video update once weekly. All video is DRM free, so you can download and keep it for as long as you like.

The 1 Gay Pass sites have recently upgraded their video options. The following reflects the most recent 15% of videos: Windows Media: download in four different qualities, the best of which have bitrates of from 3,000 to 5,000 kbps, playing in a very large (1280x720 pixel) window; or stream at 540 kbps (640x360 pixels) Real Media: download at 300 kbps (480x270 pixels); or stream at 540 kbps (640x360 pixels.) Flash: stream in two qualities, the best which is 900 kbps (850x400 pixels) With previous videos the Windows Media downloads are a maximum of 1500 kbps (640x480 pixels); Real Player videos and one to two minute MPEG clips play in a 320x240 window. The Flash, Real and Windows streams started and played through smoothly, but on repositioning within the video the Real streams were sometimes sluggish. Download times were quite reasonable, even for the largest files. Mac note: Mac users can stream the most recent videos in Flash. The Windows Media files do not have DRM on them and so can be viewed by using a conversion program such as Flip 4 Mac. Mobile note: videos are not formatted for mobile use.

The 1 Gay Pass team figured out quite a while ago how to deliver a well shot, well lit and properly composed video. The chat is mostly kept in the "Man Talk" section, which keeps the main show all about the sex. The pop and flash of the digital camera is kept to a minimum so that the viewer can sit back and enjoy the guys doing what they're here for. The camera glides around the model's body, shifting from longer shots to close-ups, and lingering on particularly hot angles. The cumshots are almost always nicely caught.

Image and Other Content

The almost 250 image sets typically feature a mix of mostly digital pictures and a few video captures, averaging about 120 images per set. The images are clear and well-lit. The galleries are nicely laid out, but there is no slideshow or zip file option..

Men Over 30 adds numerous bonus video plug-ins to sweeten the deal. As is often the case with plug-ins you may have to disable some of your filters to view them.

Summing Up

Men Over 30 is a major and welcome component of the 1 Gay Pass five-site bargain, with plenty of thirty-something men in various shades of white and brown. It's refreshing to see that the 18-24 year-olds don't completely rule the gay porn universe.
