review of Titan Men, 2010-02-08

It's been a couple years since our last review of Titan Men, so we figured it was time to see what's new with their site. In case you haven't heard of Titan, they are one of the most famous gay adult video companies around, known for their high-quality production values and hot, horny models. The tour gives some tantalizing peeks at what the member area of Titan Men has to offer, and there are some video samples, as well. But instead of watching some samples, why don't we go directly to the member area and see what Titan Men really has to offer!

When you log into Titan Men you will find 3 dropdown menus at the left so you can search videos by title, model or category, which they call keyword. Below that is a link to get the coupon code for 25% off Titan DVD titles. On the upper right is a link that says "TitanMen News: What's Hot" that linked to an ad page leading to pay per view. Next to it is a link to Help for members and those buying DVDs. Just below are links to HOME, ON-DEMAND and STORE. Under ON-DEMAND should be 3 links - TitanMen, TitanMen Fresh and ManPlay, and they're where you can browse the content by DVD title. If they're not there, just click the ON-DEMAND link to see them.

I'm unable to tell you how often the site updates. As far as I can tell, it updates whenever there's a new Titan DVD available. I believe that's once a month, which means 4 to 6 new scenes plus extras each month. But don't quote me on that - I could be wrong as there are no dates given.

There are currently 134 DVD titles inside Titan Men, 50 more than on our last visit. Each DVD has 4, 5 or 6 scenes, so figure there are well over 500 full scenes, and many of the DVDs include extras, as well. That means that different videos may contain interviews with the models, behind the scenes stuff, bonus sites, movie highlights or even a compilation of all the cumshots from that video. While not all the videos included extras, many did and they definitely added to my enjoyment of the site.

Some of the videos on Titan Men were a bit of a disappointment while the newer titles deliver the goods. All the videos are in WMV format, and some of the videos - presumably the older ones - are mostly offered in 56k or 300k. That's not exactly high quality but the 300k vids (the ones I watched were actually around 275k) looked okay at their original size of 320x240 although I wouldn't recommend watching them full scene. But good news is that some of the videos are also offered at 900k with a screen size of 640x360. These look pretty good and don't lose too much quality when enlarged to full screen.

The videos are downloadable as full scenes, which is a plus, but there's a downside. All the videos - even the dialup sized ones - are DRM-protected. That means that Mac users won't be able to play them, and also that the videos you save will probably not continue to play for you after your membership has expired. They also can't be burned to DVD or synched to an iPod or another computer. Still, I always prefer watching videos after downloading them so that they play smoothly, and these vids are good for that.

The sound and the sex are excellent here. As mentioned before, Titan Men is known for high production value. The music and sounds are clear and sharp, and the sex... Well, damn, the sex is awesome! If you want to see hard fisting or fit and hunky guys in bondage, there is plenty of it. And of course Titan Men has plenty of hot men in some of the best group sex scenes anywhere. There's plenty of cumshots and fucking and sucking, and if gay hardcore turns you on, I think you're sure to find something that turns you on here.

Beside videos, many of the movies come with photos. One set, called Model Galleries, shows some stills of each of the guys in the video. You can also see just one model's pics by clicking his thumb shown to the left of the scenes. The other pic sets are the Action Galleries, and these are small pics of the actual sex in the video.

One thing you may find worth knowing is that there are links throughout the site, including a link on every DVD title, to buy DVDs. It's a little intrusive, but not too bad, and if you don't choose to purchase DVDs in the store, the links are easy enough to avoid.

Titan Men offers content from 134 DVD titles, which means over 500 full scenes for your enjoyment - plus many of the vids come with extras like behind the scenes and interviews. Some of the vids are only shown at 320x240 at average quality while others are shown at 640x360 and look good. The videos are downloadable, but they do use DRM so they won't continue to play after your membership has expired. And for those who buy porn DVDs, that 25% member discount may come in handy. It appears that the site updates when there's a new DVD, but I'm not sure how often that is.

If you are looking for a site that gives you access to a fucking lot of gay sex movies, and you don't mind some smaller vids - or if you're a fan of Titan - Titan Men is definitely a site you'll want to check out!
