Its nostalgia time folks, and there are a few blasts from the past for you to enjoy over at Gay Classics. If you're hankering for the good old days of slightly dodgy 1970s costumes, moustaches and other classic things, then this is a site you've got to call into. Apart from the main, ancient, content here, though, you will also get access to some up-to-date modern porn courtesy of 100 bonus sites and the Gay Porn Access network.
Once you've signed up and logged in you will find access to Gay Classics is via the top of the left hand menu. Beneath this link is a category list with 21 categories and the numbers here refer to the amount of sites in that category, not just the amount of video or picture content. More about that later.
So, what kind of classic porn is there here? Well, there may well be a few faces that you recognise, depending on how old you are, certainly some of the images and videos took me back several years. I counted 18 videos in this section and it is hard to say if they are exclusive or not. And it's also hard to say whether these are genuine classic porn movies or just a very good reproductions. It doesn't really matter as you get the same atmosphere, and content that you would expect to find in an early porn flick, including grain, silent scenes, black and white, faded colour and scratch and hiss. Here you'll find sexy guys with moustaches, who wouldn't look out of place in some old black-and-white movie from 30 years ago, but you also get plenty of hard-core sex. Remember that this classic content comes from pre-condom days, so expect some barebacking, and there's a nice mix of interracial and ethnic action too.
You're video viewing options in any site that comes from the Gay Porn Access network are pretty good. When you open the video page, which is a very simple looking white background page, there is a console in the middle. Here you will find options to download the file in WMV format or to stream it in your external media player. There is also a convert file function, (something I can never get to work but this may work for you), so you should, in theory, be to swap these files from WMV into any one of a number of other formats. As for quality, as usual with this network I found two qualities in operation here. There are high resolution versions at just over 2Mb at 720 x 480 and smaller ones also suitable for downloads. These are around 800kbps and 320 x 240, download speeds are around 66k, so you shouldn't have to wait too long even if some of the files are quite large.
The sucking, fucking, jerking off and even food fetish content that these classic movies provide you with are available to view in video cap galleries too. These have various numbers of images within them and these pictures open up individually in flash and are good quality for screen caps and certainly worth a view.
So your content at Gay Classics consist of 18 movies that run for decent lengths of time, and 18 screen cap galleries. That may not sound like a lot to you, and there isn't much by way of update news, however there is an awful lot of bonus site access to be had.
Once you join Gay Classics you join the Gay Porn Access network and you have around 100 sites in total in view. If youre really hooked on classics then you may well find some older movies in here, but there are plenty of up-to-date and exclusive ones too. Youll find a few adverts dotted around the site inviting you to go and view, and possibly sign up to, other sites and these will include chat, dating and cam sites. You might find some free content there but your main bonuses come from the list of 100 included sites. You can check through these via the left category menu, and there are also areas which feature the newest sites and a page of featured ones.
Members can get interactive here at Gay Classics. No matter where you are in the network you will find that you are able to comment on what you see and read what other members have written. If you're up for it, you can rate the content as you go and leave your mark by saying how good or bad you think things are. Because you have hundreds of videos and galleries to view here you have a neat little Favourites area so you can stock all your favourite sites in one place. This is a nice way to help you personalise your experience, and it makes finding things easy when you come back. There is a certain amount of information about scenes and the guys appearing in them, but there isn't that much by way of stats or information about updates or what's coming soon. The file converter and download calculator in your main video console are nice extra features, and generally everything technically worked well here.
Gay Classics offers you 18 movies from the past which are, considering their age, of decent quality. It's reminiscence time as you watch these long-haired guys going down on each other; theres plenty of oral and anal action to be had, you get various viewing options which ensure you don't miss a thing, and there are decent screen cap galleries alongside each movie. On top of this you have a huge amount of bonus sites and you are guaranteed great value for money.
