1. Network access.
2. Exclusive content.
3. High video specs.
1. Too expensive.
2. No video viewing options.
3. Even with 2000k vids, they show their age.

If your favorite pornos from the 70s and 80s are trapped on VHS tapes that are basically unplayable today, have no fear. Golden Hardcore presents classic videos digitally remastered to downloadable formats. Take a walk down memory lane with stars like Peter North, Nina Hartley, Houston, Vanessa Del Rio, and many more big haired, frosted eye shadow babes.
The Goods –
Golden Hardcore offers up some entertaining and unique content. It’s not exclusive, but that’s the beauty of it. These are your favorites dug out of the archives to be enjoyed all over again.
The videos are offered in three quality settings, all the way up to 2400k. That’s pretty impressive, even for today’s movies. Granted, even at these specs the movies aren’t as sharp as they would be if they were filmed today. However, it’s a good showing and the best you could probably hope for from vintage porn like this.
Members of Golden Hardcore get access to all the sites in The Hardcore Network. 17 sites are included, covering themes like virgins, Asians, matures, and even ass smoothies and heads being flushed in toilets. It’s a very original collection, to say the least.
The Bads –
Membership is pretty expensive. It’s $35 a month, which is definitely on the upper end of the spectrum. Yes, this is pretty unique content but it’s still a lot to pay for any site.
The collection could use some growth. Right now, there are 74 videos and just under 6,000 photos. That’s not bad, but they do have two decades worth of porn they could be putting up. I would expect numbers in the hundreds, if not thousands, for a site like this.
There are no tools for getting around the site. The scenes are listed in the order they were added with no additional browse features. There are no categories (even though each scene is tagged with what it includes, like blowjobs, cum facials, or what have you), there’s no way to browse by series (they don’t even tell you what movie the scene comes from), and there’s no model index (most of the time they don’t even give you the name of the actress, she’s just referred to as a “sultry slut” or “hot brunette”). It’s an extremely weak set-up.
Conclusion -
Golden Hardcore is the kind of site that I would join for one month but probably not stick around beyond that. This is fun niche material, but it’s too expensive to recur for very long just for the sake of novelty. That said, the network is a great addition here so if other sites in this group appeal to you, then by all means you’ll want to stick around. However, Golden Hardcore itself would benefit from a few adjustments.
