Urban Brits features hot English boys in gay hardcore and solo galleries and videos. These tight young things know just how to pleasure themselves and their boyfriends. The scene begins with the cutie chillin’ before he strips down and jacks off for the camera. There’s a mix of looks here, with some of the guys having a twink look and others looking a bit buffer.
The Goods –
All of the content here is exclusive. This is all original material featuring cute British boys that you won’t find anywhere else. The collection is primarily solo, with the only real hardcore being found in the video section. Since the video section is quite small, you can expect most of the content to be solo galleries.
Members of Urban Brits also get access to five additional sites. All of the sites include more hardcore guy action, with Latino and European gays and straight guys, as well. This is definitely a nice bonus.
The Bads –
There hasn’t been a video update in months. The last new video was added September 6, 2008. New photo updates are coming weekly, but I wouldn’t count on any new video content being added. The tour claims weekly updates for both and that clearly is not happening.
The collection isn’t large. There are currently just 67 galleries and 13 videos online. While some of the galleries are large (300+ photos), it seemed to me that these larger sets just had more “filler” pics. It seemed like the same shot over and over again with just a slight head-turn or a bit zoomed in. There’s just not a ton to see here.
The whole site is pretty basic. The design is simple, there are no tools for getting around, and there’s no information provided about any of the guys or their scenes. You’ll also find no download options for the photos, like zip files or multiple image sizes. It’s a pretty plain set-up.
Conclusion –
Overall, I wasn’t thrilled with Urban Brits. While the original content is entertaining, there just isn’t very much of it. The quality was average and the package wasn’t very user-friendly. At $30 a month, I expect a bit more. The saving grace is the network access. If the rest of the collection appeals to you, Urban Brits is worth a try. On its own, though, I was less than impressed.
