Italian Gay

I had a bit of a shock on the way in to the members’ area. Adrea Nobili is a mainly straight-sex porn set-up and you land on the home page for their network when you log in. So watch out for the little link on the right, the one to the gay site, unless you want to catch some straight bonking and some real straight guy cock before you get to the hot gay stuff.

And, once you have clicked into Italian Gay via that link, you find a simple home page with the two most recent updates featured on it. There is also a space for ‘coming soon’ though this was empty when I called in. You've got a simple top menu here and that holds the links to videos, galleries, models and help, so start off with the videos and you are up and running. There were 85 scenes when I clicked in here, and they were spread over numbered index pages, which makes navigation very easy. You will see upload dates and it’s worth noting something about updates here: the tour states two per week, but recently that’s been about one per week, and during the first two months of the site the updates were firstly a block, en mass, to get the ball rolling, and then a few at regular intervals. So it’s a bit hard for me to say if the update schedule has settled in yet. There is a calendar in the top menu which should show you what is up soon and next though.

As for viewing the movies, that’s easy. You've got three qualities of Flash stream and three of Quicktime stream, so no problems there. The medium one survived well at full screen and gave me no start and stop problem. There is also an MP4 download with each movie so you can take and keep them if you want. The quality is great, the direction is very good and there are some very erotic moments as well as the hardcore. The musical soundtrack that happens on some of the scenes actually assists the eroticism, rather than hinders it, and the soft lighting and flattering camera work make for some stunning scenes.

As for the action: you’re going to find mainly duos here so far, with hung and hunky, young and twinky Italian guys – it’s a real mix of amateurs and some pro-looking actors and models. The scenes are generally indoors, standard bed and sofa scenes, but there are some medical fetish ones involved as well, plus one really horny group scene so far. It’s a great collection for variety, the run times are good, from around 15 minutes up to 35, and the mix of guys means that each movie is different and worth collecting.

Beneath each viewing screen is a set of links for the images. You have screen caps with each scene in sets of around 150 pics, and these can be run in a slideshow. There are also online digital images in a medium resolution to view and a zip file download of all pics to take. So you are well served with images there. But there is also a gallery area in the top menu which holds 10 sets, again with around 150 pics each and these images are also worth a browse and a save. They take you through some of the action scenes with poses and portraits as well, so once more you have a nice variety.

The site doesn’t really give you any extras or bonuses, unless you count the straight content as a bonus. You can vote and rate content and there is a model index where each of the 15 guys has some stats and links to his appearances. All this is set to grow over time though, so it’s going to be worth staying around to see what happens.
