You ask us all the time: Why so much focus on twink and collegiate guys in gay porn? Where are the hot guys who happen to be older than 27? In Men Over 30 the Pride Studios team "rises" to this challenge by tapping a big pool of hot men who have been on the planet a bit longer than your average twink.


Men Over 30 features a mirror tour that takes you through the entire episode index. On each page you'll see a description of the model and of the episode, some pictures and a 30 second trailer of the model(s) video session. Complete the tour and you'll have a really good idea if these are the guys for you.


Look down the center column of the home page and you'll see large graphic boxes showing you the three most recent updates. Once past the rather busy home page you'll find navigation through the episode index and other parts of the site is quite straightforward.


The model types at Men Over 30 continue with the eclectic mix featured throughout the Pride Studios sites. You'll find white, Latino, Afro-American, and mixed-race guys who share the characteristics of being good-looking, fit, and over 30.

Some favorites: solos by hard-bodied 42 year old former Titan model Brett Anderson and big-muscled nine incher Magnus. Hot pairings: 34 year old top Clyve and 31 year old bottom Alexander work each other's big dicks before Alex takes a serious ass tonguing and pounding. Or Lee, 30, and Bailey, 31, in a butt-munching, cock-gulping oral fest.

At review time we counted almost 200 episodes, of which approximately 25% are duo and group action. There is a complete picture and video update once weekly.

Video can be:
- streamed at 385K in Windows Media or Real Media, playing in a 320x240 window.
- downloaded as brief 1-2 minute MPEG clips, playing in a 320x240 window.
- downloaded in Windows Media at 385k, playing in a 320x240 window (DRM licensed for the life of your computer).
- downloaded in Windows Media at 1500 kbps, playing ing a large 640x480 window (DRM licensed for only as long as you are a member.)

The Pride Studios team figured out quite a while ago how to deliver a well shot, well lit and properly composed video. The talking part ends after a couple of minutes, allowing the model(s) to get into an erotic mood. The pop and flash of the digital camera is kept to a minimum so that the viewer too can sit back and enjoy the guys doing what they're here for. The camera glides around the model's body, shifting from longer shots to close-ups, and lingering on particularly hot angles. The cumshots are almost always nicely caught.

The almost 200 image sets counted at review time typically feature a mix of mostly digital pictures and a few video captures, averaging about 120 images per set. The images are clear and well-lit. The galleries are nicely laid out, but there is no slideshow.

Men Over 30 adds some bonus video plug-ins to sweeten the deal. See <> for the complete list. As is often the case with plug-ins you may have to disable some of your filters to view them.

Summing Up

Men Over 30 is a major and welcome component of the Pride Studios five-site bargain with more than 150 hot, mature guys in various shades of white, brown, and chocolate. It's refreshing to see that the 19-24 year-olds don't completely rule the gay porn universe.
