Real Hooker Pickups
Real Hooker Pickups is a strange take on porn. Because I suppose most people would argue that pornstars are barely more than hookers anyways. But in this site, you'll get to watch these guys hit the streets in search of the hottest and sexiest hookers from the streets of LA, New York, Vegas and everywhere in between.

Real Hooker Pickups Review
19-July-2012
Freetour offers: The free tour is fairly typical. On it there are scene previews. Each of these consists of 5 images (4 small thumbnail images and 2 slightly larger images). You'll find out the name of the girl, her age, the name of the episode, the length of the video, how long the girl's been hooking for, how much the session cost and a description of the scene from pickup to fucking. There's only one video trailer for the whole tour instead of a video for each scene previewed on the tour which was a bit disappointing. Move down to the bottom of the page and you'll learn about bonus access to some niche DVD websites and some other exclusive porn sites. But don't let the numbers fool you. They're exaggerated fairly heavily.
General impression: Like I mentioned in the introduction, most people I know think of pornstars as hookers or prostitutes already. So I thought it was a strange idea for a website. I guess the presence of a camera and a flimsy plot is all it takes to turn a whore into an actress, huh? But there's no stories here. No plots. They just cruise the streets, find a hot hooker and in exchange for cash have the nights of their lives with these ladies of ill repute.
Bravo's opinion: When you first arrive in the member's area, things look great. Where you actually arrive when you first log in is not the Real Hooker Pickups' member's area. Instead, you'll find yourself at the homepage of the Skin Members network. From here, you can access 17 different websites. 13 of these websites are niche DVD websites. Between them, you'll be getting access to thousands of DVDs across a wide range of niches.
The four exclusive sites are 18 And Broke, Asses on the Job, Mall Teen and of course Real Hooker Pickups. But the disappointment begins as soon as you start to browse through the exclusive sites. Real Hooker Pickups for example has just 7 scenes as of October 2008. The site launched a little over a month ago with those same 7 scenes and in that time there hasn't been a single new scene added. This doesn't bode well for future updates. And the story is the same for the other 3 exclusive sites which were all released last month. Mall Teen has 7 episodes. 18 And Broke has 8 scenes. And Asses on the Job has 6. So for 4 exclusive websites, you're talking about a total of 28 scenes for four exclusive websites with no updates on the horizon. Not a good start.
Also, the claim of HD video on the tour is bogus. Sure, this stuff very well may have been shot with High Def equipment. But that's irrelevant if the end-user (you) isn't getting high definition video. For a video to be considered HD, it must be at least 720p (1280 x 720 pixels). And while these videos do boast a 16:9 widescreen aspect ratio, they measure just 640 x 360; far short of the minimum requirements of High Definition. And don't make the mistake of thinking these videos are half the size of 720p videos. They're half as tall and half as wide, which actually makes them just one quarter the size of 720p videos.
The videos are available as either a single full-length video file or as 1-minute clips. You can also stream the video as one big flash video file. The downloadable videos are all in WMV format and you get a choice of two quality options. The highest quality available are of course the 640 x 360 pixel videos I just mentioned. These are encoded at over 2100 kbps. There's also a lower resolution of 350 x 200 pixels. These videos are encoded at over 1100 kbps.
I just can't get over the fact that they've launched a site with just 8 videos and no updates. I mean, you do get access to 3 more exclusive sites, but they're just as lack luster as Real Hooker Pickups. No, the real benefit of this membership is not the exclusive content sites, but the niche DVD sites.
You'll find a variety of DVD sites covering the following niches: Asians, BBW, BDSM, Latina, Ebony, Interracial, MILF, Shemale, Squirting, Lesbians and Teens. Now here's what will actually make joining Real Hooker Pickups worthwhile. Usually, each of these DVD websites will set you back just under 30 Euros each month for your membership. And with that membership you will only get access to one niche DVD website. But if you join Real Hooker Pickups you'll get access to all of the niche DVD websites for the price of one site. And if you've been as far as the join page, you'll notice this site is just under 30 US dollars per month instead of the nearly 30 Euros you'd be paying to access any one of the niche DVD sites.

Conclusion 73/100
I don't rate this website. Personally, I don't really like the concept. It just doesn't interest me. There's not nearly enough content, even for a brand new website. And that's exacerbated by the lack of new updates. The only benefit of this membership is that it can be used as a gateway to get cheaper access to the niche DVD websites which if you join individually will cost you 30 Euros per month for just one. Whereas if you join the network via Real Hooker Pickups, you get access to all of them for under $30 per month. But that's about the only positive thing I have to say about this membership. If you're only interested in exclusive content and the idea of thousands of DVD titles doesn't interest you, then don't bother. Enjoy.
