Alternadudes Review by Spencer Alternadudes

Review by Spencer

Released Aug 1, '10 , Written Jul 27, '10
Intro

Alternadudes is up for review today, and this is a nice little niche gay site here. It's rather new, opening up just over a year ago. They bring in alternative/punk type guys, with tattoos, piercings, or just a different look to them, and have them pose and fuck on camera. There's a good mix of solo and hardcore play here, and the guys are all generally on the young side (18-25 usually), and in good shape. There are quite a few similar sites that are successful on the straight side, so I like the idea of something like this in the gay world. It'll cost you $30 to get in for the first month, and then just $20 a month after that.


The Pros

  Unique gay content.

The actual gay part of the content is pretty standard, with dudes jacking off solo, and fucking other guys as well. However, when you mix in the type of guys that they feature here, things get fun. The alternative aspect of the site makes for some different personalities than you're used to seeing, which can only be a good thing.

  Newer videos offered in HD.

The switch over to high definition videos definitely helped things out here. The content looks pretty good all around for the newer scenes, and I look forward to when the HD videos outnumber the SD variants.

Other Good Stuff:

  • Of course, the content is exclusive here, as expected. It looks like they shoot all of their own content.
  • Updates come weekly here with a new scene. I'd love to see even more updates, but at least the site grows pretty consistently.
  • I like that they have bios available for the models. A site like this really benefits from adding some personality to the mix like that.
  • The streaming player is pretty cool here (once you find it - see below in cons). They have four quality options, the streams play pretty fast, and they even offer a filmstrip for navigation, which is impressive.

The Cons

  Could still use some growth.

At just around 70 scenes or so, this site still isn't very large. At least it's not tiny anymore, thanks to the updates from the last year, but there's still a ways to go. Once they get into the 200-300 scene range, then we'll be talking about a decent-sized collection.

Minor Negatives:

  • Of course, the older quality isn't quite as good here as the newer stuff. Videos are smaller, and pictures come in vidcap format only.
  • The streaming video option is almost hidden. You don't really see any mention of it, but if you click the video preview image, it opens up a page with a pretty slick streaming interface.
  • I like that they offer the tag cloud for narrowing the content a bit, but the way it's setup currently is a bit awkward. I'd rather have them on a search page of some type to be able to find them all better, and maybe choose more than one at a time.
  • The downloads came a bit slow here for me. This is mostly due to the fact that you can't use a download manager, so you're stuck with whatever your browser can pull, which was about 1/6th of our max speed for me.

Bottom Line

A nice start, but it's still going to take some time to really get some growth going.

It sounds like Alternadudes is better off than they were a year ago, but it'll still take some time for them to really build up a sizable collection to really make a mark out there. The idea for the site is great, and the content coming out now is definitely better than it was early on. The HD videos help a lot, and hopefully they'll stick with actual photos (compared to vidcaps). They really need more content, and even at weekly updates, it's going to take some definite time to get into a better numbers range. I think the site could be polished up a bit, bringing a little fancier graphics/design choices, and maybe a few more options. Otherwise, I think their base is solid, and look forward to seeing where it goes over the next year or two.
