Hitmen
site reviews > General > Hitmen
Hitmen is an old-school gay porn site that doesn't really focus on anything but rather tries to give members access to tons of different kinds of pics and videos. Hitmen doesn't actually offer a tour. The tour page is also the main member page and as a result, members will sometimes see join links after they have logged in. All the content, feeds and bonus sites are linked from the main page - some directly to the content, some to the site where you must find the content and then log in to see it. On the far left is the list of updates, mostly plugins, and it is listed by date. On the left are a bonus site, plugins and some sites that seem to be part of the Hitmen network. On the right you'll find content that is mostly hosted inside the site itself, upsells and a few more of those sites that are part of the network. All the links are there with a title and brief description but members can click on any and log in to see what's inside.
Hit Men says they've been online since 1997 and I believe it, not because they offer huge amounts of content but because back in 1996,1997 and 1998 there used to be a lot of this kind of site around. It's a sprawling page linking to all sorts of porn, much of it general and still more unrelated fetishes. Most of the actual Hitmen content is either older or has been seen around a lot or both, but one thing I will say for Hitmen - they have a lot to explore.
The Citiboyz Theater is probably the best quality plugins here with full versions of all the Citiboyz DVDs. The broadband videos are WMVs shown at 320x240, and while this is a little small, they look good. There are also 2 lower speed vids for those on lower connections. There are 39 DVDs listed, most with 4 to 6 scenes on each one. Funny thing is, if you look down the left side of the main page of Hitmen, you will find a link that says Citiboyz Clips. You will find pretty much the same movies there but in lower quality MPG format rather than WMV, and with no broadband version. This second Citiboyz page is actually hosted inside the Hitmen server, but I can't quite see why they bothered since we already have access to the Citiboyz videos from the link at the top of the page.
The biggest and best quality pics from the collections listed on the right are the Citiboyz collections. There are 182 Citiboyz photo galleries total including solo, hardcore and orgies. You've probably seen some Citiboyz pics around but this is the motherlode. The pics range from 600x800 resolution to around 768x1024 resolution, and except for the older sets seem to be pretty good quality.
There are also the hunks pics. There are over 100 hunks sets of some of the most overexposed solo male content on the web - and some of them aren't exactly what I'd consider hunks, either. Pretty much the same could be said for the jock sets, most of which come from the same content provider and some of which certainly aren't jocks. Be prepared to find a fair amount of regular amateurs and jocks mixed in with the twink photo sets. As with the other categories, there are some pic sets here I've been seeing around the web since before the year 2000. There's also a pic section called Players and darn it, I have no clue what the connecting thread is between these various sets. Some of the guys are athletes but others seem to be just regular guys.
Most of the photos here are on the smallish to medium side and a fair amount are oversharpened a little. Each one can be browsed as a thumbnailed gallery or you can watch as a hands-free slideshow.
The Hitmen videos are a small collection of smallish, below average quality and very short Quicktime videos. There are a total of 21 clips which are from 7 full scenes. And if you like short videos of low quality, be sure and check out Sock Stuff where the videos are short (as in under 30 seconds each short) lowish quality AVI clips.
The network sites are include the BDSM Videos and SockStuff Videos on the left and HornyPunk, SockStuff and a couple others on the right. These seem mostly to be sites that are too small to stand on their own but offer content in some really interesting niches although the tours for these sites look like they're right out of 1996. Still, if you don't mind that the quality and size isn't great, there are some fun foot and shoe fetish pic sets and some videos. Just keep in mind that a lot of these vids are very short clips and the pics are below average by today's porn standards.
BTW, most of the other plugins are supplied by a single company. Each one offers several DVD titles available in several clips and your choice of formats. The broadband videos are shown at 320x240 and they are amateur quality. These plugins come in a variety of niches with titles like Boyz From the Hood, Bottom Boys and Cock Sucking Twinks and you can't actually get back to Hitmen from these plugins by hitting your back button.
Hitmen has a fair selection of foot fetish and shoe fetish content although the content is mostly sizes and quality levels from yesteryear but these days lots of sites from bigger programs offer more and better quality feeds than I found here. The best stuff here is the Citiboyz Theater and the Citiboyz pic collections on the right. For those of us who like modern quality porn and modern easy-to-use navigation, Hitmen can be a little intimidating. On the other hand, the price is pretty reasonable so if you don't mind the content quality, navigation and the lack of tour, variety lovers may find Hitmen an interesting way to go.
Things we liked:
- Site and network are huge
- Many niches of content
- Good amount of foot/sock/shoe fetish content
Things we didn't like:
- Self-hosted ontent is low or low-average quality
- A lot of self hosted and network content is older content
- Navigation can be confusing
Membership prices: ( billing by Paycom )
- Trial: $6.95 (3 days recurring at $19.95 monthly)
- Monthly: $15.95 (recurring)
