Golden Hardcore

Review by Vanessa

Released Aug 29, '09 , Written Aug 24, '09

Intro

When it comes to viewing the old classics of porn, Golden Hardcore has done all of the hard work for you. They've managed to collect and encode more than 23,470 images and 207 video scenes featuring some favorites like: Houston, Vanessa Del Rio, Ron Jeremy, Sheri St. Claire, John Holmes, and all your natural & busty babes of the 70's & 80's. As a part of The Hardcore Network, your $34.90 monthly membership also give access to another 17 sites.

The Pros

Network Access.

Network access gives users an additional 17+ sites with membership.

Entertaining Class Porn Content.

I love, love the old style of porn; where the girls were free and open, natural looking and less "actressy". You will find some well-known classics, but also lots of odds and ends.

Full-Length Video Downloads.

Full-length videos are offered in 3 quality formats with the newest streams coming in as high as 3700k.

Other Good Stuff:

Flash streams available.
Quality is okay at times for older video content.

The Cons

Updates Are Inconsistent/Slow.

Updates have stalled recently. New videos were being added almost weekly at some point, but it also looks like inconsistencies are common.

Site Design is Plain.

Although clean and easy to use, there aren't enough user options for this member’s area alone. Content descriptions are short and the site overall just lacks personality, seeing as there is no model index or bios either.

Video Bitrates Are High, But Quality Looks Just So-so.

3700k bitrates are the norm for the newest content, but the quality looks very "old", and even somewhat compressed.

No digital images.

Images are small screen caps, not actual digital images. Thus, the quality is not so great.

Minor Negatives:

User, download and browse options are minimal.
Somewhat expensive. $34.90 per month is a lot to pay for a paysite with non-exclusive content, especially if they're barely updating.
No zip file downloads for image sets.

Bottom Line

Nothing too special about this "Classics" site except the content itself.

As a "Classic vids" site, overall I was left somewhat disappointed by everything but the content itself. If I wanted a real "blast from the past" experience I would also expect to get the video & model information that goes along with it. In that case, I could ignore the older looking picture quality of the otherwise okay quality videos. But when it comes to GoldenHardcore.com, I feel that they dropped the ball on content info. Not all their videos even give model information, which is a shame. However, the Network access is a plus, for sure. A membership here isn't cheap, but there are some things to love about the Network Golden Hardcore is attached to.
