You don't see many hunk sites these days but today we're checking out Bang Bang Boys, site dedicated to good looking men with hot bodies and hard cocks. If you want to get a very accurate idea of what's inside Bang Bang Boys, just look for the link in the tour that says START TOUR. When clicked, you will be able to see not only the models and the same exact preview thumbs that you will see inside the tour - you will also get a very good idea of what the site navigation is like. Lets delve deeper, shall we?
The Bang Bang Boys member menu is clean, easy to read and runs across the top of the page. Below is is site news (including announcement of next live show) and on the far right of that is a search box. Next comes the "Stud Spotlight" and under that are the links to the latest solo video, latest action video, behind the scenes, latest DVD downloads, latest solo pics, latest action pics, more video updates, VOD theatre, and Men Live Cam Show. The bonus sites are located on the bottom left while on the top right are the most popular updates. And at the very end is the ‘Coming Soon section. There are currently 186 videos in the VIDEOS section, which is 116 more than there were 2 years ago. There are also 298 pic sets (170 more than last visit) and 316 archived live shows in the MEN LIVE section.
The downloadable videos are WMVs and can be watched by clicking or saved to your harddrive by right clicking on the links and choosing save as. These movies are 640x480 and stream at 700k and look fairly good although they definitely lose something if you go full screen. The downloadable movies use DRM, so Mac and Linux users won't be able to play them, and they won't play after your membership has expired. The streaming videos can be watched in your choice of 4 sizes, from dialup to broadband, and are available in either WMV or Flash formats. These videos are professionally shot and lit videos, the lighting complimenting the skin and muscles of the models.
Photos are shown at 600x900 and look good, with an average of 130 pics per gallery. They're shown at average porn quality but like the videos, the production values and the models themselves are well above what you see in most sites. Each video also comes with a set of vidcaps.
The Men Live section houses the link to the live show as well as links to 316 archived live shows. These are shown at 320x240 and stream at 150k. Even though the videos are small, they look okay so members looking for men like Manual Torres, Antonio Biaggi and Michael Brandon should definitely check these out. BTW, Michael Brandon fans should probably join Bang Bang Boys just to see him in all the archived live shows. And unlike the video and photo sections, every archived episode is dated.
The Bang Bang Boys men are mostly latin, and they range from jocks to bodybuilders. There's plenty of skin glistening with oil as well as throbbing hard cocks, but if you're looking for cumshots, better look in the videos section - I didn't find any cumshots in the pictures section. There is plenty of solo action here, but there is also tons of man-on-man videos as well as three-ways and group encounters. Everything under the sun is done from sucking to rimming to fucking. There are even some really romantic moments between some performers as they kiss each other like they have never done before!
Every 3 to 4 days Bang Bang Boys treats members to a live show featuring a variety of hunks, pornstars and duos. After they're broadcast, these live shows are archived for members to watch any time - as mentioned earlier, there are 316 archived live shows, which adds up to a lot of video. Members also get access to 20 mixed gay feeds, ranging from Jake Cruise to Fratmen to Rear Stable.
My only real issue with this site is the fact that it uses DRM on the videos. Bang Bang Boys has removed the pre-checked offers from the join page, and although there are no dates on the content, it's obvious from the site's growth that it has updated an average of once a week.
The men of Bang Bang Boys are certainly not boys - they are hunky, horny and mostly gorgeous. The action here includes both guys jacking off and plenty of sucking and fucking. The 186 movies look pretty good as do the 298 photos galleries. Beside the regular live shows, there are archived movies of the past 316 live shows including LOTS of Michael Brandon and other pornstars. Members get extra bang for their buck with access to 20 bonus videos sites - including Rear Stable, Sex Gaymes, Fratmen and Jake Cruise. On the downside the videos could be higher quality and the downloadable vids do use DRM. But Bang Bang Boys has grown quite a bit in the the last 2 years, and with regular updates and some very hot men is definitely worth checking out!
Things we liked:
- All exclusive content
- All hunks and pornstars
- Videos are downloadable
- Live shows featuring Michael Brandon and other stars

Things we didn't like:
