Short Review

Twink city! Well, kind of. Globe Boys is about gathering together as many twink flicks and galleries as can be found from across the globe. Youll find boys of all ethnicities in here, from American to Latinos, to African and European more or less every continent is catered for in the main and bonus content, including Australasia. The only thing that concerns me is the updates. There hadnt been any for a long while and there was no coming soon news.

The main and best content is contained in the standard Video and Gallery areas. The videos contained 59 scenes that run fro up to 30 minutes in length, with some being shorter. The galleries contained 124 photo sets with between 80 and 300+ images each. The six bonus sites contained more twink content, but the feed sites were not working when I called in. Here are some more details about your content:

I checked a couple of the movies for you and found a download and streaming WMV version for each. The high quality ones ran at 548kbps @ 480 x 360 in size. The streaming version was in a small screen to start with, but you can right click and zoom to full screen where the quality is fine. I caught a couple of straight lads stripping and sucking each other and this was accompanied by the director/cameraman giving instructions. Usually this bugs me but here he was helping to get them hard by talking about their girls and showing them a straight porno off screen. This added to the realism of the scene which ended up being pretty compelling and hot.

Other scenarios you can expect in the 10 to 30 minute length episodes include: after school boys in the bedroom, bareback, two guys jerking off together on the sofa, threesomes, interracial scenes, solos, Asian guys, Latinos and outdoor sex. There are plenty of scene containing hardcore and anal with loads of oral in there too. The quality remains good throughout the collection and each scene comes with a set of screen caps, though these didnt click up to a bigger size, but remained as thumbnails.

In addition to the screencaps there are decent galleries so you do get your picture content as promised. These images enlarged to sizes so big I had trouble viewing them without scrolling up and down, left and right, but you can download them. Sizes were around the 960 x 1,280 px mark and all the images I saw were clear and well taken. I cant say if they were exclusive or not. The images reflect the worldwide theme of the site with guys from various ethnic backgrounds and they also mirror the diversity of the video content with solos, couples, action, hardcore and groups though there are mainly solo ethnic boys, in the fist few pages at least. Keep clicking through though and things start to change.

So, you have your twink videos and galleries and pretty good they are too. Then you come to the other content which is contained within the bonus sites. These keep to the worldwide theme too its always good to see bonus sites that are related to the main content. On the bonus page you will find Euro Twinks and Britains Boys which are similar in design, layout and style to Globe Boys they may even have some of the same content. Then there are two sites with Australia in the titles and two with Australian amateurs and teens. Again there may be some doubling up of content here, but Ill leave it up to you to scour through and see whats what. What is guaranteed though is that there is a lot of accessible content in the sites so you wont be short of twinks to enjoy.

Getting around the site isnt difficult. Each time you go to a new page the top header stays where it is and the pages look very similar. Example: in the videos area you will see the members favourites first and the page of content beneath you will see the same thing in the pictures area with the members favourite galleries listed first. How do you know they are the favourites? Well, each member gets to vote on the content. You'll find a five star rating system available to you on each new content page. Click the star you want, wait a second and your vote is counted - I assume, as nothing actually happens apart from a page refresh. You can see the results of members votes in the stars that appear below the content. You can also send your feedback by filling out the comments box at the bottom of the pages. This works for sure I left a comment and it was instantly posted there so no doubt the ratings system works too.

Galleries have decent navigation buttons and a slideshow option; this is a simple on and off, with no choice of speeds but its there at least. There isnt an add to favourites function as you sometimes see on sites but thats not really necessary youll remember which smooth boy was the best and come back to him without help.

Now then, over in the DVD theatre there is a list of some other content. There are nine feed sites but these were disabled when I visited and I couldnt get into them. I'm not sure if thats a permanent thing or not but its worth checking the page in case its a problem that has since been fixed. Youll also find link to PPV theatres there where you can flash the cash and view even more twink content for a price. Similarly the Live Cams and Personals areas are really links to up-sells you may get something for free but eventually you will have to spend money, and Globe Boys will get a cut of it if you do.

As for other little features: there is a basic help and support page with contact links, and the main home page covers your updates. At least I hope it does. There didnt seem to have been any for quite some time when I called in. The most recent date I saw was two months prior to my visit. Each piece of content comes with its upload date which is great you can see when new things area added but the lack of recent additions is a bit of a worry. But hey! Theres enough content here to keep you going until something changes.

Conclusion

I love the idea of mixing all kinds of ethnic twinks from around the world on one site more countries would be good, and I like the quality and variety of the streaming and downloadable videos. The updates are a bit uncertain at the moment, theres nothing to let you know if there will be more or if thats it. You'll have to check that out for yourself and keep and eye on a recurring membership. But what you have in the meantime is good enough quality, and some is rare footage.
