High Octane Review by Vanessa High Octane

Review by Vanessa

Released Aug 21, '12 , Written Aug 13, '12
Intro

Brought to you by Raging Stallion Studios, High Octane promises to "fuel your fire" with about 260 hot gay sex videos and 235 image galleries featuring young studs in hard sex action. These guys are so hot, built and manly even my fire is being fueled! $29.95 per month gets you in on the action which also offers access to another 4 bonus sites including Raging Stallion, Sex Gaymes, Hard Friction and Hot Barebacking.


The Pros

  Hardcore, Maybe Original Hardcore Gay Content With Pornstars.

I don't know if any of the content here is 100% exclusive but the scenes appear to be produced and shot exclusively by Raging Stallion Studios. The 225 models featured are mostly well-built, very sexy men with muscles, some with chest hair and tattoos. The content features some of the most hardcore great sex I've ever seen; asshole stretching, gaping holes, and even some fisting, it's all here and it's all very hardcore.

  WMV/Flash Streams Available.

All videos can be viewed online in Flash or WMV format. 4-5 different quality options are also offered, some with bitrates up to 1500k. When they do offer it, the 1500k streams actually look awesome (the lower quality ones just slightly better than average) and buffering times were very short for me.

  Live Cam Shows Offered.

Member's here gain access to the Men Live section of the site that offers archived and live cam shows featuring models from the site. Live cam shows appear to take place on Thursdays and go up to at least an hour or more in length.

Other Good Stuff:

  • Model index and content that offers scene info/description information. Additional content includes XXX Cinema, bonus site access & Men Live cam shows.

The Cons

  Videos Are DRM Protected.

Probably the most annoying aspect of High Octane is the DRM protection on the videos. A user name and password is needed before you can play a video and the license will expire the minute you cancel your membership. Nothing is yours here to keep, unfortunately.

  Video Quality Isn't Quite Up To Par.

I mentioned some of this above, and while the quality is nice overall, it's important to point out that in terms of bitrate speeds and actual picture quality, High Octane falls below average compared to other sites, especially ones with the HD videos we've been seeing these days. It should also be noted that most videos here actually only go up to 800k, far below average for any site mind you.

Minor Negatives:

  • No model bio information or cross-linked content categories. Both these additions would make browsing the site easier and give the site more personality. I think most of these models are well-known pornstars that can be found on other sites in similar content.

Bottom Line

Quality could be better but the variety of hot gay scenes is good.

If you're looking for a variety of hot gay men, well-built men, and even some men that don't even come across as being gay, and want to see them in hardcore sex action, then you're going to enjoy the numerous video streams offered here. Truth be told, there are some inconsistencies when it comes to quality, even with the newer additions, but the hardcore & group sex content remains enjoyable. DRM protection and lack of download quality/format options are the biggest drawbacks to this site, but otherwise I enjoyed the hot models in Raging Stallions hot High Octane action.
