PROS:

1. IR group & guy/guy hardcore.

2. High vid quality on new vids.

3. Bonus network gay sites.

CONS:

1. Choppy organization/navigation.

2. Few viewing/download options.

3. Average update pace.

BOTTOM LINE:

"A black interracial groupsex site with original content & some nice quality videos."

Black Machines is a hardcore gay site with content with a mix of action featuring black guys. The guest tour's few pages of preview pic and movie trailers are representative of the content found in the member's area. The gay niche is so huge that my feeling is it's helpful for a site to have a specialty focus and with Black Machines it's interracial. More specifically groups of black guys on one white guy although not all the content follows that precise format.

The Goods:

- IR Group & Guy/Guy Hardcore Content. Much of the content, especially the videos, features hardcore shoots of several black guys and one white guy. Some simpler guy/guy content is also mixed in as well. The fact that they go beyond just the basic interracial concept to focus in on groups of black guys is worth pointing out.

- High Vid Quality on Newer Vids. Starting in '07 the videos added are 3000k which is very nice quality for a site like this. The movies prior to that are 2000k which is respectable as well. I like that they are continuing to offer higher quality as time passes and overall they provide sharper looking movies than I expected to find.

- Bonus Network Gay Sites. The network offers additional sites with similar style content. Since Black Machines' price is $29.95/mo this helps to provide more value to members.

The Bads:

- Choppy Organization & Navigation. The layout of the member's area is pretty basic. My main issue is that they update the videos in segments and don't put each episode onto one page. Instead the episode parts bleed together on the chronological list.

- Few Viewing/Download Options. The video parts can either be streamed in-browser or downloaded in one file. So there aren't really full-episode files since each update is a part of a movie. There aren't any format or quality level choices either.

- Average Update Pace. The updates come anywhere from one to a few per week. Again with each addition being a part of a movie it takes a week or longer usually for one full movie to be added. This is a smallish site so quicker updates would help.

Conclusion:

Black Machines surprised me in a good way with the interracial groupsex specialty and the impressive video quality. Those are clearly the main assets offered by the site. The negatives like design, updates, and download options are annoying could be improved on quite a bit with some tinkering so it'll be interesting to see where the site is at when we get back for another review.

1st Follow-Up Review

Review: 05-07-08

Taking another look at Black Machines I see that the points made in my initial review still apply. The video options should be clarified though as they do post the movie in parts and then follow up with an update of the episode in one full-movie file for streaming or downloading. So they cover both options in terms of having both clips and full-movie files available even though there aren't really format or quality level choices. Episode organization remains too basic for my liking. The site is still a good source of original black interracial gay material that also places a heavy emphasis on groupsex scenes. The newer additions seem to all be of the group variety.

Score increased from 75.0 to 76.5.
