Initial review: 5/12/2007 - Updated on: 4/16/2008

I had to agree with the attitude of Evan Rivers. He believes that too many gay porn sites are made by straight production houses and that they seem to be merely a "money grab," as he calls it. He's also on the mark as far as suggesting that many gay porn sites lack creativity or simply release the same movies starring the same performers you see everywhere. However, Evan comes across as your stereotypical, narcissistic prick who seems to be a superstar in his own mind. His bravado is hardly original, as loads of porn claims to be better than all the rest. We'll soon see whether his hype passes the test.

There are no pics, only screen caps, which are the typically small, albeit not too blurry stuff. They do serve some sort of purpose, since although EvanRivers sounds as if it would be all about just one guy, it isn't. Evan doesn't even appear in every update on the site. Some of the first few episodes posted are of random solo guys. There is a load of hardcore further down the line, although Evan himself does do a few scenes on his own as well.

There are 65 videos to download in short clips, longer-length partial scenes and full-length movies. It depends on how recently added the update you choose to download is, since older Windows Media files were always average-looking. However, currently, that format is only mediocre, but you can now find some partial MPEGs with good-quality playback. One thing that hasn't changed is that Evan plays safe in all his scenes. I do appreciate at least the diversity of action, as Evan has one-on-one sex with some of his fuck buddies, threesomes with two dudes and even sex with a married male and female couple.

Evan has a blog and a bio, but there are no other extras offered. It's an attempt to make a personality-driven experience for his members. However, I'm not sure what he thinks makes his site so distinct, as I have seen other sites featuring some gay who thinks he's God's gift. Perhaps in other cases I was more inclined to agree. However, that's subjective, to say the least.

Sometimes there have been gaps between updates, but Evan is currently adding new stuff every week. Evan Rivers has improved enough to make the site more worth joining, even without still pics or bonus sites.
