GayDemon's review of College Boys Live

If you enjoy talking live with college guys and watching them as they live their lives, you're not alone. Many of us love reality shows, and live houses are the ultimate reality show because we can watch them 24 hours a day - in the kitchen, the bedroom - even in the shower! College Boys Live is the latest live cam site. One of the coolest things about it is that members get access to not 1 but 2 houses populated with cute amateur guys. So let's go inside and see what College Boys Live is all about.

When you first log into College Boys Live, you are given a choice of which house you want to visit first - Orlando or Tampa. I decided to check out Orlando first and was taken to a page full of content.

The main member page for the Orlando house had a menu on the left and on the right is a list of scheduled chats, what's new with the guys of College Boys Live, the CBL Featured section, info on the College Boys Live Pod cast, a section where the guys post pics they take of themselves on their cell phones, plus plenty of gossip about the guys and the updates list. One of the guys even answers sex and relationship questions. But first things first - let's check out the guys.

I found the link to Live Cams on the menu. Live Cams has 3 options - Live Cams and Chat, CBL Video clips and CBL Diaries. When I clicked Live Cams and Chat, I was taken to a page where the first link is to the Collegeboyslive Cams. Below that are 8 more live cams, including BoysCondo, Key West Dudes and Dude Dorm. These cams say you must have a level 2 membership, so I went off in search of what that meant.

There are 2 levels of memberships on College Boys Live - level 1 and level 2. The level 1 pass, which costs $19.95 per month comes with the college boys live house, video diaries, chat and message boards, CBL galleries, theme nights and monthly parties. Level 2 adds more boys, hardcore sex plus a gallery full of videos. It costs $8.00 to upgrade.

There are 35 cams in the Orlando house, and even though it was late, there were CBL guys and plenty of members in the live chat. The Tampa house has 21 cams and even though it was quite late at night, some of the guys were out and there was one guy manning the live chat, his face lit by the monitor as he talked with all of the members in chat. If you end up wandering around the other parts of the site away from the cam, there's a BoiTracker system which will alert you when new activity has been detected throughout the house.

The cams images are pretty clear for cam images, which means that it's amateur quality. Each new cam or room took a moment to load before it started playing, but after that they played pretty smoothly, with no periods where the motion stops. One thing I didn't care for was that the small preview pics of each cam don't seem to update, so you don't know which rooms have live guys in them without a little searching.

Besides the live cams, both houses have CBL video clips to watch. The clips are fairly long and varied in content. In 1 clip, I watched the guys at one house cook their Thanksgiving dinner. In another, I saw guys hanging out while wearing only their underwear. There is also a video of one of the guys getting pierced and still another of the guys swimming with dolphins.

Although College Boys Live is a pretty professional setup, the actual guys living in the houses are amateurs. It gives the site a casual, relaxed and sexy feel.

Both the Tampa and Orlando College Boys Live houses include a feature I really enjoyed - the diaries. Check the menu of either house and you'll find CBL Profiles. That includes the diaries and Roommate Profiles. There are 2 diary sections - written and video. I especially liked watching the video diaries because I think the guys get pretty real while recording them. There's all sorts of diary entries, talking about life, living in the College Boys Live houses, and gossip - even sex.

Besides the diaries of the current CBL guys, College Boys Live keeps and archives the diaries for the previous guys living in the houses.

The Roommate Profiles are info on each guy - his birthday, cock size, sexual orientation, all that good stuff. Also below his stats are each guys' likes and dislikes - favorite movie, favorite music, favorite club, what his ideal man is like - so you can get to know a lot about the guys. It's fun because you can read about a guy, then talk with him live and see if he's like you imagined from his profile and diary entries.

Besides the College Boys Live houses, there are also some features like pic galleries, CBL Radio, a forum - plus an online store and some great support on the Coming Out section if you're not out or not sure if you're gay. It's not porn, but I think it's good reading. If you're just in the mood to get off without getting on the cams, there are also 6 third party gay porn feeds, along with a decent amount of gay hardcore picture galleries.

I had a good time inside College Boys Live. I talked with some of the guys who live in the houses, and they were nice, fun and sometimes flirty. There are cam-sized and full sized pics of the guys in the CBL galleries, and the video diaries and replays of the house cams kept me watching. If you like live cams, and especially live cam houses, College Boys Live delivers not 1 but 2 houses of guys to talk with and watch 24 hours a day.
