gay porn review of Maskurbate website by Gaydemon, published on 2009-05-07.

I'm not a fan of plays on words, but I AM a fan of sites that show us something fun and different - and I do love hot men with huge cocks. That's why I'm a big fan of Maskurbate, a site that shows hunky and mostly uncut amateur guys wearing masks as they fuck, suck and jack themselves off. The idea is that this way, they can stay anonymous and still fulfill their fantasies of appearing in porn, and on our last visit the site was living up to its promises. Looks like the site has gotten bigger and better, so I'm off to the member area to see what's new at Maskurbate!

The Maskurbate member home page starts off by listing the latest updates on the left with dates, and the "Search Center" on the right, which lets members search by model name, episode title or niche. Below are links to the content, and the bonus content - only the left bonus link is actually not content, it's pay per view - and the right link is the site blog. All the pages inside Maskurbate are clean, well organized and except for the PPV ad, are very easy to use.

There are currently 175 videos episodes inside Maskurbate, 97 of which are Maskurbate episodes - 45 more than there were for our last review around a year and a half years ago. The other videos are member home movies, but first let's talk about the official Maskirbate videos. Each includes a model profile that includes things like cock size and what the guy does for a living. There's also a description, the video offered as a streaming video and a downloadable video, and is listed with size of file and running time. Some videos also include a set of pics.

The downloadable videos come in both WMV and Quicktime, and the movies are offered in full scenes. They're nice and large, shown at 640x480 with a bitrate of around 1.5 Mbps. These vids are good quality and lose very little sharpness when enlarged to full screen. Even better, they don't use DRM, so whatever you download will continue to play after your membership has expired. The streaming vids are offered in Flash, the older vids shown at 480x360 and the newer ones offered in 2 sizes - 320x240 and 640x480. I was pretty happy with the quality of the streaming videos, and consider them a good alternative if you don't care to download. In addition, 59 of the videos come with sets of pics. These are vidcaps but good quality for vidcaps, the older ones shown at 450x332 and the newer at 640x360.

The action here is hot, with plenty of jerking and cock sucking by masked hunks and amateurs. While some of the videos are solo jerkoffs, sometimes another guy lends a helping hand, mouth or even ass, and sometimes the site owner jumps into the action instead. We see his hand at the end of some of the videos reaching out and touching the guys' cocks after they've cum. He also sucks some of the guys.

Then there are 78 home movies and webcam shows that were submitted by members. And I can't help that notice that the guys in these videos are mostly the quality of muscular hunks found in the regular movies. These vids are offered in both downloadable WMV format and streaming Flash. The videos are shown at 480x360 at around 1 Mbps, and while they aren't as good in quality as the official Maskurbate videos, they're a lot better than most of the cam and home videos I've seen.

The site also offers 38 "Fantasy Strips", that are put together like comic book pages, but are made with photos put in frames to look like a comic. There are small narrations in some panels, and thought and talking bubbles above each guy's head in his strip, and I think these add a lot of personality to the site. And they're not only sexy but fun.

Maskurbate has made some substantial improvements, and I'll list them here. First off, they now offer all the videos in downloadable Quicktime as well as in WMV format. The Quicktimes are the same size and quality as the WMVs, which are good stuff. Also the newer videos are now offered in 2 sizes of streaming Flash rather than one. And although not all the episodes are dated, there are now dates on the latest updates, which is a definite improvement. A couple more things worth mentioning are the addition of the home video section and also the blog, which lets us hear from the site owner, although it would be nice if it were updated a little more frequently.

Both the concept and the men of Maskurbate are hot and definitely worth checking out. There's both solo and 2-guy action here, and there's a feeling of "I wonder who's under the mask" that adds something extra. The downloadable videos are shown at 640x480 and they look good. And don't forget that many episodes have pic sets, and then there are the Fantasy Strips, which I only wish there were more of. And the user submitted videos are pretty good quality and downloadable - together with the Maskurbate videos that's a total of 175 videos. My only issue here is that even including the home movies, the site updates are not regular - it's been 9 days since the last update. Last month there were 4 updates and the month before there were 2. Even so, the men here are incredible hunks, the action is hot and the videos are good quality and downloadable. I'd say that Maskurbate is definitely worth checking out!
