There is a good collection of some unique and unusual videos at Gay Adult Video where you actually get to view more than just videos. There are also picture galleries, some bonus sites and suggested other live cam and dating sites. But the videos are the main attraction and there are a couple of hundred full length titles here, some of which I havent seen anywhere else. It is an easy site to use and navigate around and the pics and vids can all be downloaded without restrictions.
Gay Adult Videos is, obviously, all about gay adult you get the picture. But actually there is more to it than just videos as we will see in a moment. The main part of the members area though is the one that contains the movies and, when I was viewing the site, there were 222 of them. Ill start by giving you a quick tour around that area and then move on to the other things you can access when you join the site.
When you click the Video link fro the home page you will see the eight most popular titles and beneath these the four most recently updated ones. You have a reasonably sized, though not always clear, screenshot of a scene from each of the movies to give you a rough idea of what the scenario is and you also have the title. When you click in further to the actual, individual movie page you will see the screen cap again and a list of scenes. Unfortunately these scenes dont come with an image so you wont know what you are getting until you have downloaded it. You are told the file name and the size though, which is helpful if you are on a slower connection as you can judge how long each scene will take to download. The file sizes arent horrendous either so they wont take too long to get to you.
And when they do you will find they are MPEG files that are 352 x 240 in size. The ones I sampled were reasonable quality, had sound and ran for a good length. Im not sure what studios they were from or if they are exclusive movies though as this information wasnt available to me. But after seeing some of the hot scenes available I wasnt really bothered about that kind of detail.
As for the content of the videos well, its really a question of anything goes or everything goes. You have solo jerk off scenes, couples, trios and orgy scenes. You have black guys, white guys, interracial scenes, Hispanic men and Latinos. You have indoor and outdoor locations, all kinds of sex as long as its gay; hunks, young guys, your typical studs, jocks, college guys, policemen, firemen, all kinds of uniforms and fantasies, huge cocks, gory holes, bare back, bears and leather guys. I could go on but I think youve got the idea now: its generic.
The picture galleries are similarly diverse, featuring all kinds of guys and situations. There are four categories to view by: Gay for all of the gay ones (51 pages), Ebony for the black guys to be filtered (eight pages), Bear for the hairy guys (seven pages) and Bisexual (five pages). Selecting the gay section as a whole I found 600 individual galleries and browsing around the pages found a lot of extra big dick galleries. On closer inspection I found some of these to be clearly morphed, you know played around with in an image manipulation programme: Fun and fanciful really but sometimes sexy too. And the others, the real dicks that were big, were better. As were the solo, hard-core and underwear galleries that I found. Again Im not sure where the images are from, they had a kind of classic or old feel to them for some reason, well some of them did, but this doesnt mean they are grainy or anything. 400 x 600 was an average size and thats quite big enough when the pics are good quality, like these.
There are six other areas of the site that you could consider extras (at a push), as they are not the videos and picture galleries that make up then main content. Working across the top menu, after the pics and vids, we come to Live Cams. This page basically gives you two live cam sites to sample. You click over, in the same window, to view the sites and there are some free options available to you; you can see the guys waiting, or recorded sessions of them waiting, but to get to a private show and see some sexy action performed just for you, you will need to sign up.
The same goes for the four personals sites that are listed on the Personals page. Again these are membership sites with some free access and functions. The Adult Sore page gives you three on-line shopping opportunities but its when we get to the Stories page that things really start to pick up. Here you will find two sets of erotic stories, thats 200 stories in total but they are straight. There are also some message boards and links to advice lines and sites, so it is a strange mixture of feeds and links here on the story page! The next page is called Phone Sex and is an advertisement for sex chat lines complete with numbers and the kinds of pictures you see in gay magazines: Call now! No! And finally the Bonus page which has a link to an on-line DVD site that I thought was a store. Actually it turned out to have a set of gay scenes, and many other straight ones, including compilations and some comedies too. These scenes streamed in Quicktime in three different qualities. So, there is some bonus material for you to enjoy after all.
Meanwhile, back at the main site, weve come to the end of our tour around except to point out that there are FAQ and help pages should you need them. And there are links to customer support and billing support too so thats handy. I should also point out the search engine that is at the top of each main page (after the home page); I used it and it works fine, bringing up videos and galleries according to your keyword. Finally, the site is easy enough to navigate around as the top menu is always there even when you are in a gallery or have a full sized image open. The design of the site is such that it reminded me of a tabloid newspaper, I think that was to do with the search button, it looked like the masthead for the Daily Mirror (UK) or similar, but that doesnt mean the site is tacky or tabloid in any way. And I dont mean to imply that the Daily Mirror is tacky either
So what do we have? Well, we have over 200 full length porn movies that are available in sensibly sized scenes and that you can download. Some of these titles were completely new to me, which makes a change. We have around 600 galleries that feature varying sized and quality images and both these areas feature all kinds of guys and all kinds of gay sex too. We have some bonus video clips and links to other chat and dating sites. There is a good search engine and navigation is easy.
