Well, just another hardcore reality site, right? Kinda, but BoyGirlBang is one of the more entertaining ones out there for sure. The premise, as usual, is pretty simple. Our hostess Phoebe takes us on a journey as she tries to help a hapless loser, or good friend, get laid depending on which episode you're watching. There's usually a lot of pre-sex video footage while they try to find their victim, and Phoebe is pretty damn funny at times.
Do yourself a favor, and check out their trailers. These small clips are hilarious usually, and are done very well. I want to see a site dedicated to trailers like this, lol, except that we'd never see the good stuff for long I guess.
Anyhow, into their member's area, and it doesn't look huge to begin with. We are only on episode 34 right now, which is a bit less than we've seen in other reality sites. Plus not getting access to any other sites is a downer too, as we're used to the Nasty Dollars and Ox Bros sites where you get like 10 sites in one. On top of all those, we found out that when you first join, you only get access to videos 1-10, with another video being added every three days. While I understand the thought process behind a move like this, I completely disagree with it (unless you're joining for less than full price or something).
Anyhow, time to check out what they have to offer. They have a TON of screen caps for each scene, usually well over 1000. Unfortunately they are just screen caps, but at least they give you a good idea of what you'll be seeing in the video. They are usually in the range of 720x480, and look fine. Nothing special either way :)
The videos are where it's all at, so no need to waste our time looking at anything else. As far as viewing options, you can watch the whole movie in one long stream in Windows Media format (both low- and high-quality). They also break it up into smaller clips that are usually offered in both MPG and Windows Media format, although the most recent ones only offer MPG format for some reason. Anyhow, the videos look pretty good for reality stuff. Windows Media ones are encoded at 350kbps, which provides for some decent looking clips.
Some of the best stuff while watching the videos it the commentary by our hostess, Phoebe. Watching her approach random couples trying to find the perfect victims is fun to say the least. But the vidoes are very long, and they take a while to watch if you go through the whole thing. So this means you'll probably just be watching clips here and there of whatever you want.
I wish I could give this site a high score, as I enjoy the videos a lot. But the weird practice of only giving you access to part of the site is just not good from a reviewer's standpoint. This is especially true considering the site costs $30 a month, which will buy you much more developed sites at places like NastyDollars or Bang Brother's sites. If their stance on this changes, then expect this to be one of the better reality sites out there. Until then, not so much.

Review: 11-20-06 |
What was once a fun site has fallen by the wayside it seems. The $30 price tag is still in place, but thankfully it now gets you access to a network of sites as well. Beyond that, the news just isn't that good at Boy Girl Bang. They've basically not really grown at all, only featuring 37 episodes right now. The quality is still on par with what it was years back, meaning it's lightyears behind today's videos. A high price tag, no updates, and bad quality just don't make a very good site here. Watch this score plummet...
Score decreased from 83.8 to 67.5.
