Pros
+ Hands on Hardcore is a very large and extremely impressive "glamour style" hardcore guy/girl site from the people behind the even more impressive 1 By Day.
Hands on Hardcore currently gives you more than 650 videos and photosets in seven different categories, Anal, Classic (vaginal sex, you know that old fashioned stuff that's on the verge of being almost entirely replaced with anal porn these days), 100% Anal, MMF, FFM, Gangbang and finally Interracial, the last four categories containing a fair bit of anal action as well.
While anal and to a slightly lesser extent group sex obviously get a whole lot of attention here, Hands on Hardcore is still a pretty varied site, and if you actually prefer anal porn to the old fashioned cock-in-pussy stuff like I do, well then this is a really interesting site indeed
+ Well over 200 models, many of them really hot, and some of them well known East European pornstars like Angel Dark, Angelina Crow, Monica Sweetheart, Nikki Blond, Simony Diamond, Jasmine Rouge, Jessica Moore and many others. A fair number of them have appeared on 1 By Days as well, whether in hardcore guy/girl or lesbian or solo videos (see the note in the cons below about content overlapping)
+ A pretty decent site interface, mostly resembling the old archive section at 1 By Day. All content is categorized as mentioned above, and the alphabetized model directory includes info like nationality, hair/eye color and various measurements
+ 12 new video/photo updates a month for the last several years. A bit less back in the early days of the site, from late 2002 and onwards
+ Hands on Hardcore must have been among the very first porn sites with full 4000 kbit 720p HD video. Looks like they started that already back around November 2005. Several lower video qualities and formats are available as well, including streaming Flash format for videos from the last six months or so (around the same time the company made the improvements mentioned in my 1 By Day review)
+ Just like on 1 By Day, the photo content at Hands on Hardcore looks great as well, particularly since 2004 (not surprisingly somewhat less impressive the further back you go). Three different resolutions are available, the largest one on recent content an extremely impressive and very sharp looking 1330x2000 pixels. All these sets can be downloaded in a zip file as well as viewed online
Cons
- Some of the content is recycled from the hardcore guy/girl sections of 1 By Day (or maybe it's the other way around). Most of the content (I would estimate roughly 60-70%, possibly more) is exclusive to Hands on Hardcore though
- There really should be a few more points here to balance things out, shouldn't there? Well, I'm struggling to find any, unless I start nit-picking like I did in the 1 By Day review about a site interface that could perhaps be improved ever so slightly, and I guess in this case I could also complain that they "only" offer two or three weekly updates, which is one of the reasons I haven't added Mega Sites as one of the review categories.
That would indeed just be nit-picking though, because Hands on Hardcore is just plain amazing if you're looking for hardcore video and photo sex with the main focus on anal and group sex
