"Jack's original hardcore amateur video looks good!" |

OneManBanned.tv is a British video site featuring the One Eyed Jack video collection. I'm not entirely familiar with this video line, but judging from the tour it looks like we're in for some hardcore amateur action here. First time amateurs seem to the specialty and the collection includes candid looks at what goes on behind the scenes with these newbie babes. Though the design is on the simple side, often these video sites let the content speak for itself.
The videos are divided into six video lines. One focuses on sex toys, three on hardcore sex scenes, and two are shot behind the scenes during photography sessions. Don't worry, the sex lines are by far the biggest. There are around 136 clips available, ranging in length from six to forty minutes long. Each clip can be both streamed and downloaded, although it is important to note that if you joined via a monthly membership rather than tokens, once your membership expires you will no longer be able to play the movies you downloaded because of license restrictions. If you choose to purchase the tokens each clip will cost you between $2 and $7, otherwise you'll end up paying $35 for the first month and $25 each additional month to access the entire collection. Neither of these options is exactly a bargain and which will be the most cost effective for you will vary. Think of it this way. If you buy the tokens in bulk (200 for $25) you'll end up paying $1.25 per clip. That means it will cost you $170 to download the entire site. That is six months worth of membership. If you think you might enjoy these clips for longer than six months or only want to grab a handful of clips, then get the tokens. If you just have a passing interest here, I'd go for the monthly membership.
Now back to the content. These are professionally shot videos so one would expect a level of quality here. I was not disappointed. All of the videos are encoded at 1000k and can easily be played at full-screen. Most of them have an amateur feel to them with the camera movements and angles but in this case "amateur" refers more to the style of video than the actual quality. I was a bit surprised to find no options at all for format and speed. Basically high quality Windows Media is all you're going to find here, so you'd better like it! There is a pretty good mix of softcore and hardcore here, all done with an English accent, of course. The ladies all have a girl-next-door look to them, attractive and amateur at once.
OneManBanned.tv is certainly a great resource for fans of the One Eyed Jack video collection. Those who enjoy hardcore amateur porn in general should also check this one out. The video quality definitely deserves a look. However, I do feel this site is priced a little too highly, especially considering that users can't keep the video at the end of their membership. You're basically paying a higher than average site fee and you only get to "rent" the content. This one won't score well in the bang-for-your-buck category, but if One Eyed Jack is what you're after they do claim to have the largest collection on the net so for his hardore amateurs you may find it will worth it to shell out the dough for this site.

Big news from One Man Banned! That annoying DRM license restriction we complained about in our initial site review is no longer an issue! The vids are still protected by license but they no longer expire when your membership does. This greatly improves the value of the site! Speaking of site value, formerly the site was $35 for the first month recurring at $25 a month. Now it's $30 every month. It's a bummer for those who plan to let their memberships recur, but if that's the trade-off for non-expiring video I say it's well worth it.
Otherwise not much else has changed. The number of videos has increased from 136 to 156 which is pretty close to what you'd expect from their weekly update schedule. I'm really pleased with the removal of the download restriction and feel I can recommend this site to fans of quality British porn flicks.
Score increased from 77.2 to 77.8.

In the eleven months since our last visit to One Man Banned, One Eyed Jack has continued to film "cute babes, horny ladies, couples and genuine first time amateurs in real hot rampant action." The collection of movies is now up to 187 from 156, so it averages out to updates just slightly less than once a week. There are still no video options or photos, just a big collection of original hardcore movies. Quality is as good as ever and the sexy scenes are definitely entertaining. I'm bumping up some scores, particularly my Quantity rating since this really is a large site. I wouldn't mind a few more bells and whistles but this simple collection definitely deserves a look!
Score increased from 77.8 to 78.5.
