Black Machines is a hardcore site that combines many niches. First off, you’ve got the well-hung black men. But they’re not going at this alone, these are gangbang scenes. And the lucky recipient of the cocks is white. And did I mention they’re gay? So we’ve got gay interracial gangbang videos on this kinky hardcore site.
The Goods –
The videos on Black Machines are exclusive and really entertaining for fans of interracial hardcore. Every video is full of action in their unusual combination of niches. I haven’t seen another site like this so these original movies are a real find.
The video quality is very good. They’re wmvs that play at 2000k and are 720x406 in size. The newer movies play at 3000k and look even better. All of the scenes are very sharp and really good quality.
Members of Black Machines get access to eight bonus sites. If you like Black Machines, you’re definitely going to enjoy the rest of the collection that includes themes like studs, boy weddings, gay cartoons, and first time gays.
The Bads –
I don’t care for the way they have the videos displayed as segments. They’re added as clips with no separation between the clips in one video series and the next. It’s just 18 pages of clips. Some of the scenes also have photos or screencaps but they don’t link to those from the video pages. It’s a very disorganized set-up.
The site isn’t actually all that large. With 18 pages of clips, it may seem large, but there are only around 18 full scenes online. There really isn’t as much to see here as you may first think.
Lately updates have been somewhat erratic. They’ve been going 2-3 weeks between clip updates, when before they were updating with two new clips a week. It’s been off for the last two months so hopefully they take care of this soon.
Conclusion –
I really enjoyed the kinky, quality, original videos on Black Machines. They look good, and the network access makes the $30 a month pricetag easier to take. I would just love to see the site organized better. It really is a pain to browse the videos in the way they’ve got it set-up. Navigation aside, though, this hardcore site deserves a look.

Review: 05-06-08 |
Since our last look at Black Machines 10 months ago, the site has grown a bit. There are now 29 full-length movies online, up from 18 at our last visit. Updates are still coming often enough, but with just a segment coming at a time, it's taking a long, long time for this site to grow. I wasn't a fan of this set-up before and I'm not now. Otherwise, it looks like the only change is an upgrade to video quality, with full-scene files that now play at 3000k. They definitely look good! I just wish the site was structured a bit differently.
Score increased from 75.5 to 76.5.
