Pros:
+++ EXTREMELY original content
++ VERY expensive and unusual setups
+ LOTS of content
+ added DVDs
Cons:
- video quality is often mediocre
- pixelation
- navigation/design is horrible
Bottom Line:
I've already reviewed this site earlier, and now came back to it again. In short - it is still a site with LOTS and LOTS of VERY unusual Japanese content (contests of 64 nude girls, topless gymnastics, parties where girls are getting nude and being fucked, and so on). Video quality is at best mediocre (I'd even say poor for 2011), plus there is pixelation over genitals (reportedly it is a law in Japan), but scenarios are so unusual, that it still may be worth the try.
What has changed since my last review:
- a LOT more content has been added, much appreciated
- it includes some full DVDs, also a good thing
- these DVDs are usually in MPEG1 or MPEG2 format, which is an insult in year 2011 (quality is poor while size is large).
- they have added full versions of the DVDs, so they can be downloaded in one piece
- as a side effect, navigation has became very confusing
Bottom line: the only thing which makes it worthwhile, is UNIQUE content, the rest (video quality and convenience of use) is poor to very poor. Still, as they're the only site (at least as far as I know) with this kind of content, it may be worth a try, especially for fans of Japanese porn.

Pros:
+++ Some girls are really into anal sex
++ variety of anal-related actions
+ HD video quality (1280x720)
+ frequent updates
+ CCBill billing
Cons:
-- locations are dull
- cameraguy work and lighting is just ok (not stellar)
- HD quality is not the best for 2011
- 29.99 is too high for a single site
Bottom Line:
When I'm looking at EverythingButt, I simply cannot resist comparing to another site within the same niche, BigWetButts by Brazzers. As I was member of Brazzers more than a while ago, it won't be 100% fair comparison, but I hope it will still be relevant enough.
In my review of Brazzers network, I've said that they would get mark of 90 if they wouldn't cheat their customers. Kink.com and EverythingButt do not cheat, so they should get 90 if they're on par with BigWetButts.
First thing which becomes obvious when looking at EverythingButt videos, is that they're reusing the same SF Armory which is present in all Kink.com shoots. While I think SF armory is perfectly adequate to the BDSM niche (and most of Kink.com are indeed BDSM), I would like more bright setting at least for some of anal site scenes. Also cameraguy work on BigWetButts is stellar, but on EverythingButt it is just ok. Overall, BigWetButts IMHO wins here hands down.
Next thing is models. It is very difficult to find models who like anal, and both EverythingButt and BigWetButts have done tremendous job here. On EverythingButt my personal favorite is Amber Rayne, she likes anal a lot, and on BigWetButts there are several models who are obviously into anal (trio Flower-Harmony-Phoenix is my all-time favorite). I would say EverythingButt and BigWetButts have a tie in this department.
Action: I admit it is on wilder side with EverythingButt (analingus, A2M and so on are rampant), but for me it is a bit too much (on BigWetButts all of it is also present, but a bit milder which suits me personally a bit better). Still, trying to put aside my personal preferences, I'd say it is another tie.
Now to video quality. If not paying for HD on BigWetButts, a year ago you'd get pretty low 768x432 resolution, but it came in 2.3Mbit/s and was absolutely crisp at this resolution. On EverythingButt, it is formally HD (1280x720), but the best I could get for WMV from them, was 1.6Mbit/s which I don't think is enough for HD (it was not as crisp as it should). Overall, I'd also declare it a tie there (though for 2011 I'd expect higher quality, especially from market leader like Kink.com).
Next point to compare. Kink.com traditionally has pricing structure where you need to pay separately for each site (there are discounts, but they're just discounts), and price of 29.99 is IMHO way too high for a single site (Brazzers provide access to the whole network cheaper).
Bottom line: EverythingButt is definitely a well-worthy site for hardcore lovers of anal sex. Still, if not for Brazzers cheating their members, I'd like BigWetButts somewhat better. Hence, I've ranked EverythingButt at high (but not enormously high) 85.

Pros:
+++ original concept
+++ very natural feeling
++ probably unscripted
++ mostly beautiful girls
+ HD video quality (1280x720)
Cons:
--- no translation, no subtitles
- collection is small
- price (29.95) is inadequate for such small collection
Bottom Line:
TotallyUndressed is a new site which has great potential which is unfortunately not realized because of one small but very important detail, if they fix it (and will produce regular updates) - for me it will become one of personal favorites.
The plot in every clip (about 20-25 minutes each) is very similar: there is a room where girls are coming to some kind of interview (maybe job interview), where they're asked some questions, then they are asked to remove shoes (to measure height, though I don't know it is related to interview), then - shirt and so on, and pretty soon they come to suck a dildo and get dildo-fucked. There is nothing unusual about this plot, but what makes it really special is how natural it feels. Girls do not look as models, they do not look as pros at all, they're shy (or playing being shy), and so on. The whole thing looks so natural that I just need to hope that it is not a REAL job interview where girls are tricked into doing this kind of things without knowing it will be all over the Internet.
Now to the bad part. As I've said, this thing looks and feels very natural, and there is a lot of conversation going on. The problem is that all this conversation goes in some language I cannot comprehend (probably Russian or something similar), and it spoils at least half of the fun.
GUYS, IF YOU ARE READING THIS - MAKE SOME EFFORT TO ADD SUBTITLES TO YOUR MOVIES (for example, the same way as FuckingGamble guys are doing it), IT WILL BECOME SO MUCH BETTER!
Technical details: video quality is nothing special but ok (1280x720 ~2Mbit/s), number of scenes is small (~15), which is IMHO ok for a new site, but price (29.95) is certainly way too steep for this amount of content.
Other details: there is NO B/G or G/G sex on TotallyUndressed, girls are just masturbating and playing with dildos. Girls are of "girl next door" type, but on more beautiful side. The plot is almost exactly the same every time, it is reaction of the girls which makes it worth looking.
Bottom line: it might be a VERY GOOD (I'd probably rate it in 90's range) if they just would add subtitles (or any other kind of translation). Unlike most adult sites, dialogs is a VERY important part of TotallyUndressed, and being kept in dark about what girls and interviewers have said, ruins most of the fun.

Pros:
++ beautiful girls
++ most likely unscripted fight
+ progressive undressing
++ very good video quality (up to Full HD 1920x1080)
++ access to 21sextury network
+ many billing options
+ no pre-checked cross-sales
Cons:
--- pretty much pointless, girls do not know what they're really doing
-- no real rules, no winner or loser
Bottom Line:
When reviewing such a site, it is very difficult to avoid comparing it all the time with UltimateSurrender (which is BTW at the very top of my personal ratings). All the time I was a bit confused: if comparing NudeFightClub to UltimateSurrender, it IMHO doesn't stand a chance, but if comparing it to "average site out there" it isn't too bad.
First of all, NudeFightClub clearly loses to UltimateSurrender in the overall concept. It looks that the authors of NudeFightClub got the main idea of "show how girls fight and then fuck", but didn't make it look anywhere real. Unlike UltimateSurrender, on NudeFightClub there are no rules, no judge, and no real competition. It just shows two girls wandering around the ring and hitting each other without apparent reason. Probably "fight" is not scripted, but as there is no real reasons for girls to fight, it is not really competitive. The "fight" starts with girls dressed, and they undress as the action goes, and in the end girls are usually completely nude. There is no judge, and no score, so in the end, there is no winner or loser, girls just move from nude fighting into some lesbian action.
On the positive side, girls in NudeFightClub are usually very beautiful, so watching them is a pleasure. Video quality is one of the best in the industry (up to 8MBit/s 1920x1080, both in WMV and MP4). Download speeds are good. And last but not least - it provides access to 21Sextury network (and IMHO there are much better sites within 21Sextury than this one).
Bottom line: if you like UltimateSurrender because it is real and competitive - probably you shouldn't bother with NudeFightClub, you're likely to be very disappointed. But if all you want is nude girls wandering around in some sport-like action - it might be worth a try, especially considering bonus access to 21Sextury network.

Pros:
+++ VERY original idea
++ girls seem to enjoy it
++ fun to see news anchor undressing
+ added more "unusual" strip patterns
+ added some public topless stuff
+ added a few great-looking anchors
+ pussy haircuts
+ video quality has improved from "very good" to "even better"
+ cheap, plus there is a "3 days free gold membership" promotion right now
Cons:
--- about 50% of the time there is no undressing, girls start nude
-- even when there is some undressing, often it is just from underwear to nude
Bottom Line:
When I've re-joined NakedNews about a week ago, my first impression was that the site operators did read all our complaints here on PU and paid attention to including more undressing in the news. I've even thought "Oh, I might keep my subscription beyond first month" (it doesn't happen to me too often ;-)). Unfortunately, it was just lucky few days :-(, and going through archives, I have run through numerous days where all the girls are completely nude from the very beginning :-((. Funny thing is that owners seem to know what people want, and in "News Off The Top" segment (which starts every day program) they show most of the girls dressed, but it only results in big disappointment when you anticipate some striptease and only get girl who's completely nude from the start :-((.
To be more specific, I've even went through the archives and gathered some statistics to share. Out of randomly chosen 15 days (taken in 2010), I have observed the following numbers (I cannot guarantee they're 100% accurate, I might have forgotten to add 1 here or there):
starting fully dressed - 13 times, starting in underwear - 23 times, starting fully nude - 43 times. I've also counted "unusual patterns" (like panties taken off before bra, or no panties under dress) separately, and the number for the same time was 13.
Overall, the site has stayed more or less the same since my last review, so I will concentrate on differences which I've found compared to my previous review here on PU (which can be found under "Archived" subtitle). First, I "feel" that amount of undressing has dropped (I didn't gather statistics back then, so I cannot tell exactly). Second, they DID add great-looking girls (I especially adored Whitney St John) - and it was one of my complaints back then. Third, they've added "Naked in the Streets" section, which is about the topless girl taking interview in streets or on the beach (loved it). Also addition of program with nude girl cooking was a nice one.
Video quality was very good back then, but now it is REALLY good (with probably the best streaming player I've ever seen).
Bottom line: it is still a site which can be fun to see for 1 month (if you're ok with softcore stuff), and I still don't think it can be interesting for a longer time. On the other hand, I think that IF they would add MORE undressing (especially FULL undressing, not just from underwear), they will become MUCH MUCH better.

Pros:
++ unique concept
+ original use of AI (Artificial Intelligence) technologies
+ regular updates
+ improving over time
Cons:
-- poor overall implementation
-- poor AI logic, especially with earlier models
-- quite poor conversation (I remember chat bots capable of MUCH more intelligent conversation)
-- video quality of 320x240 MPEG is inadequate for 2010
- need to download the game first, and then need to download upgrade right away
Bottom Line:
After reviewing FuckingGamble, 'Capn' has referred me to VirtualFem. Thanks for referral, Capn, it indeed was quite an interesting experience, though a good idea behind this site has IMHO suffered a LOT because of poor implementation.
VirtualFem is not really just a usual adult site with video clips to be downloaded and played in Media Player, but they require their own download, more like sites like 3DSexGames or PlaySexGame. When downloading for the first time, you get version 2.0 and only one girl, and it was a HUGE disappointment for me. Fortunately, after an upgrade to v3.0 (upgrade is available right near original download - guys, why don't you make SINGLE download for v3.0 to avoid disappointment?) and also downloading one of newer girls things became more interesting.
What you get at that point is a girl, which you
can chat with. It is not a 3D girl, but a series of pre-shot video clips, which are affected by your chat. Earlier girls are very straightforward (which was boring for me - what is the fun if you can tell the girl "fuck ass" right away and she gets fucked up the ass?). Newer girls are more sophisticated, and sometimes are even interesting to deal with. Still, quality of conversation is IMHO poor (I remember chat bots capable of MUCH more intelligent conversation). Another problem is video quality - come on, today is 2010, and 320x240 qualifies as "barely acceptable" even in my books (and this 320x240 is represented by 2MBit/s MPEG - not MP4 or WMV - stream, so downloads are HUGE despite poor quality).
Overall, the feeling of the site was quite mixed: idea of using AI-driven girls is good, but IMHO poor AI logic and poor videos hurt this site a lot. On the plus side, I need to mention that the site is updated on regular basis (new girls are added) and that logic is improved over time too (difference between older girls and newer girls is VERY big).
Bottom line: while there is a chance of this site to become one of those I would like to visit on regular basis, right now I can recommend it only to those who likes this idea (controlling real girl via chat) that much that he can ignore all the drawbacks. IMHO rating of 68 ("Needs Work", but close to "Average") is quite descriptive for the current state of the site.

Pros:
+++ supposedly unscripted action
++ vast variety of games/locations
++ excellent variety of actions
+ action starts from undressing, and progresses to very wild sex
+ models mostly behave believable
++ draw to "witness" next shooting yourself
+ games are integrated into the action
+ very good cameraguy work and lighting
+ online game simulator of the very same game
+ claimed ability to play the same game for real with swinger friends
+ no pre-checked cross-sales (YMMV)
Cons:
- most older games are spoken in local language (not English); it would be a big problem, but it is mitigated by subtitles
- online simulator is limited: it is not 3D, and actions are not animated.
- picture quality is limited (1280x720 at most)
Bottom Line:
This review is one of my reviews of sites which can be described as "videos about people playing sexual games" (see my reviews of SpicyRoulette and LostBetsGames).
FuckingGamble.com is about swingers gathering to play some game for sex. After every game round, winner takes so-called "action card" to see what they will be doing. "Action cards" progress from simple undressing towards the orgy which usually involves all the players. All the game is supposedly mostly unscripted (and I tend to believe it).
Variety of stuff they have is very good.
It includes variety of scenarios (up to 3 guys + 3 girls, as well as a few all-girl scenarios), variety of actions (up to anal/DP, plus variety of toys), and variety of games and locations (from playing cards indoors to paintball or go karts). Games are somewhat integrated into the action (I shall admit that nude girls running on go karts or playing water polo was quite a sight :-) ).
They claim to have it almost 100% unscripted, and even claim to provide an option for one of the members to see it for himself. On Feb 1 they've launched a process of figuring out who's going to go to one of their April shoots; it is too early to say if it is for real or not, but I will try to get there for sure :-) (in their FAQ they're adamant about not allowing to have sex with models, which IMHO makes chances for it to happen better then for sites like BeTheMask).
Quality of videos is very good to excellent. Cameraguy work and lighting are very good. Technically, it is also very decent: most of the games are 1280x720, with bitrates up to 6MBit/s, in both WMV and MP4. They also have an iPod version, which IMHO is the best-quality adult video I've ever seen for iPod. At least one of newer games was Full HD 1920x1080, with bitrates up to 12MBit/s (I didn't try 12Mbit/s, so cannot comment on quality), and they promise to provide more of such stuff soon.
What I also liked is that they provide LOTS of information, including game rules posted on site, upcoming update schedule, locations, etc. FAQ is HUGE and was quite an interesting read at least for me.
In particular, they claim that you can play the very same game for yourself, either in online simulator or with friends. While I'm not 100% sure it is playable for real by swingers, I shall say that they provide VERY elaborated interface for describing your sexual preferences, so it MIGHT work after all. Game in online simulator is IMHO a nice value-added thing, though YMMV.
Now to the negatives. IMHO the biggest drawback is that most of the games are shot in Hungary, and most of dialogues would be lost if not for subtitles. A few newer games were shot in US with English spoken. Another thing is that picture lovers are likely to be disappointed (1280x720 pictures aren't bad, but not as impressive as FEMJOY).
Bottom line: if you like games and are interested in videos, you should at least take a look at their tour. Most likely, you'll either love it or hate it :-).

Updated:
02-02-1005:03am (Update History) Reason: Rating has been changed based on Capn's report that content is not exclusive, but re-used old content from Clips4Sale
Pros:
++ original idea
++ supposedly unscripted action
++ variety of games
+ girls seem to have fun
+ frequent updates
+ no pre-checked cross-sales (YMMV)
Cons:
-- girls are often on ugly side
-- video quality is poor for year 2010
- action is very soft (almost "strip-only")
- games are indoor-only
- no stills
Bottom Line:
As a big fan of sex games, I am really happy to find various sites with the same idea popping up recently. In addition to LostBetsGames, launched in Oct'09, there is SpicyRoulette, launched in Dec'09 (see my review a month ago), and FuckingGamble, launched in Jan'10 (stay tuned for my review upcoming in few days).
LostBetsGames is yet another site, similar in spirit to DareRing (now not updated anymore for a REALLY long while) and to StripGameCentral. It looks as it is about real people gathering and playing real strip games. I LIKE this idea (unscripted amateur action), I like it a LOT, the thing I do NOT like is amateurish implementation of this idea. I can understand that it will be "girl next door", not a pornstar, but LostBetGames IMHO went too far, often crossing the line between "girl next door" and "outright ugly girl". Videos are shot and processed in obviously amateurish style (lighting, cameraguy work, and color balance being almost nonexistent). And about encoding - come on, I do NOT think that in year 2010 320x240 qualifies as "medium quality", and that 640x480 qualifies as "HD". And on LostBetsGames, 320x240 is the MOST you can get for WMV, and 640x480 - the MOST you can get for MP4.
If they could overcome their technical shortcomings, it would be a VERY good site, mostly because of (at least mostly) unscripted nature and girls having real fun playing. And they update once a week, with every update being a single game from 5 to 15 minutes.
Bottom line: While LostBetsGames back in Oct'09 probably was a VERY interesting thing, now, with arrival of SpicyRoulette and FuckingGamble, I think they need to add more professionalism to become really competitive. Real girls having fun is great, but decent video quality (including cameraguy work, lighting and encoding) should also be there. On the other hand, if REAL strip poker is your thing, it easily can be worth a look.
UPDATE: based on Capn's report that content is not exclusive, but re-used old content from Clips4Sale (which also explains why looks so out-of-date), rating has been dropped by 10 points.

Pros:
+++ unique idea, with supposedly unscripted action
++ one of the very few sites which play around "strip poker" ("strip roulette", and so on) theme
++ special thanks for sexual "truth or dare"
+ action starts from undressing, and progresses to pretty wild sex
+ models mostly behave believable
+ lots of reasonable and supposedly unscripted dialogs between models (which improves 'reality' feeling)
+ 'girl-next-door' models which adds to 'reality' feeling
+ decent video quality
+ several video formats
+ no pre-checked cross-sales (YMMV)
Cons:
-- probably at least somewhat scripted
-- site is quite small (8 episodes, 1 hour each)
- game rules are not posted
- regularity of updates is unclear
- 3rd-party ads on a paysite??
Bottom Line:
Being a big fun of sex games in all varieties, and having spent lots of time on finding this unusual stuff, I was pleasantly surprised with SpicyRoulette (I assume it is a very new site, it wasn't even listed on TBP before I've asked for it). IMHO it is a very decent site along the same lines as now discontinued DareRing, but without most of it's deficiencies.
The idea is very simple, they have people take certain random actions in turn, and actions are along the lines of classical "Truth or Dare" with a strong sexual twist. It looks very good, with supposedly unscripted interactions between models, and after a while culminates in an all-out orgy.
So far so good. On the second thought, it makes me a bit suspicious about scripting it. If '0' on roulette means 'all players participate in massive 69', then what would have happened if '0' would come out in the very beginning of the game? My feeling is that there is at least some scripting involved, which isn't too bad, but creates certain negative feeling for me. Still, for the funs of real strip truth or dare (like myself), it is IMHO by far the best site out there.
As it is not described on TBP yet, a few words about technical side: videos are HD 1280x720, WMV 5MBps (there is also a low-res WMV option); there are also MPEG-4 and iPod versions (though iPod wasn't too good); Flash preview is also available.
Pictures are IMHO good (though I'm not an expert in pictures, so please take it with a grain of salt :-)), with most of them of quite strange resolution of 1600x1067, and ZIP-ped download available.
Bottom line: great idea and reasonably good implementation make it a VERY good (and long-needed) successor to DareRing. I would expect it to be an interesting try for anybody interested in videos of real people playing computerless sex games.

Pros:
++ surprisingly good "script play" by porn models
++ very good lighting
++ very good cameraguy work
++ very good locations
+ big network
+ reasonable variety even without single site
+ good SD video quality
+ frequent updates
Cons:
----- Outright cheating about HD right from the home page
--- pre-checked cross-sales
- somewhat overgrown recent SD video files (2.3Mbit/s for 768x432).
Bottom Line:
I would like to say that Brazzers could be one of the networks to wish for as a Christmas present :-), if not for what I consider CHEATING their own users :-(.
On the surface they look as just one of the many networks (most of which are poor-quality and boooring), but if going inside, it seems that Brazzers do everything (except for ONE thing) just a bit better, and it makes a BIG difference.
Video quality is VISIBLY better then usual, models are a BIT better then usual, locations and lighting/cameraguy work are EXCELLENT. They even managed to add some variety to their sites, and make models play scripts in quite believable way. From technical point of view, while I don't think that 2.3MBit/s is what really required for their recent 768x432 videos, but IMHO there is nothing TOO bad about it.
Overall, quality is excellent, amount of material is enormous, updates are frequent, and there is some additional twist is added by locations and scripts. What else could you can wish for? Just one thing - that they would not CHEAT on their own users. And when you click on their home page a big sign which says "Join now and embrace the future with the best HD experience", you get to "Join" page with prices, pay, and only THEN figure out that HD they've promised you pon home page is EXTRA which you need to PAY FOR (so-called "Brazzers Credits"). The more I think about it, the more it looks as CHEATING for me.
As a result, while their productions team is second to none, and I would like to put a 90 mark for them, I feel compelled to deduct 5 points for PRE-CHECKED cross-sales, and another 10 - for this CHEATING with HD, so it makes 75 now.
IF they will at least TELL UPFRONT that HD is EXTRA, I would still rant how bad this practice is, but at least it will be fair warning for the users, and I will be happy to remove those deductions I've mentioned above.
P.S. What I would wish for a Christmas present: if Brazzers would keep their excellent production team but will fire their over-aggressive sales team; BTW, I think it would be helpful for the site in the long run, because CHEATING YOUR OWN USERS doesn't usually work long.

Pros:
+ surprisingly funny
+ surprisingly entertaining
+ no outright "glitches"
+ interactive Flash clips
+ nostalgic games like arcanoid and pacman (don't confuse with Pokemon).
Cons:
--- non-exclusive content
-- pre-checked cross-sales
-- interactivity of clips is limited
-- erotics is not always properly integrated into games
Bottom Line:
Recently I've joined RussianTeensClub, but was severely disappointed (see my review). The more reason I had to try the other sites included into the same membership. One of them was FlashForAdults.
Originally (especially given disappointment about RussianTeensClub) I've expected FlashForAdults to be a completely useless garbage, but it was substantially better then that.
I've spent some time trying to understand why I feel not so bad about this site, and I think I've found the reason. While the content is not exclusive (a HUGE minus as such), and there isn't that much content that you can find on some free adult flash sites, content quality is quite consistent (at least better than on free sites).
On free flash sites (at least those which I've had a misfortune to run into) amount of content is usually huge, but unfortunately 90% is complete b/s, and it takes a while to find something decent. FlashForAdults IMHO provides more balanced feeling, with most of stuff which one can look at without disgust. Content consists of clips, interactive clips and games. Most of the clips could be more interactive, most of the games could have better integrated erotics element, but overall it was surprisingly entertaining.
Bottom line: while such a non-exclusive site IMHO can't stand on it's own, I was pleasantly surprised with the selection and quality of the implementation of the games and clips, and would rate it as a "75" (which is not bad for non-exclusive site), but needed to deduct 5 points for pre-checked cross-sales, making it 70.

Pros:
+ several video formats (WMV/Flash/iPod).
+ some videos are HD (up to 1280x720 @4MBit/s)
+ access to the network (though if it's all of the same quality, I'm not sure it's a real '+').
Cons:
--- most likely, at least some videos are not Russian even if advertised as such
-- pre-checked cross-sales
-- not sure if there is at least some genuinely Russian videos
-- according to TBP, only "some" content is exclusive, and it's unclear what part of it is indeed exclusive.
-- at least some girls are of quality which make you think "do I really want to see them in HD?"
- cameraguy work and lighting is VERY
inconsistent (probably due to non-exclusivity)
- site navigation is a mess.
Bottom Line:
RussianTeensClub site was a rather big disappointment to me for a simple reason: it didn't deliver what it promised. When I see site names "Russian Teens Club", I expect to see Russian Teens, not Czech teens, Hungarian teens or Holland teens, but RUSSIAN teens. And when on the very first page of their "Hi-Def Russians" I see the name "Petra Pearl", which is apparently a Hungarian model (see for example here: http://www.eurobabeindex.com/sbandoindex/petrapearl.html ), it raises HUGE question about credibility of the whole thing. After this, I've started to look for some conversation within the movies (while I don't know Russian, I can tell a few other languages which are obviously NOT Russian), and surprisingly wasn't able to find ANY dialog or ANY words whatsoever. While normally such videos don't have much words, still occasional "fuck" or something frequently gets in, but in these videos I was NOT able to find ANY such line; were they chosen in this way deliberately (to make sure that customers won't be able to figure out if it's Russian or not) - I don't know.
Technical details about the site aren't bad: WMV in two resolutions (one is 1280x720 @4MBit/s), iPod format, FLash (in decent quality) to view it online. But overall quality of the videos varies from one to another one greatly - it looks that they were shot by completely different teams, and vary from "Very Good" to "Very Poor". The same is true for the girls, and at least SOME of them are of the quality which makes you think "Do I REALLY want to see all that pussies-shaven-a-week-ago and pimples in HD?", though SOME girls are beautiful.
Bottom line: in my book, advertising one thing and selling another one qualifies as SWINDLING, so I can't give the site anywhere high rating. Add to this pre-checked cross-sales (which deducts another 5 points from rating), and you've got the idea why it was rated as low as 60. Moreover, I don't really see anybody who this site can be REALLY attractive for (not for those looking for genuine Russian stuff for sure).

Pros:
++ "Fully Clothed" fetish as advertised
++ additional variety because of different clothing and different handling of it
++ EXCELLENT lighting/cameraguy work
+ decent video quality (including HD WMV @3Mbit/s)
+ EXTREMELY clear pictures (despite lower resolution of 1024x683)
+ weekly updates
+ full scene downloads
+ ZIP-ped picture sets
+ access to the rest of OrgyMax network (including PartyHardcore)
Cons:
-- about the same action all the time (2girls+guy, from oral to full sex)
- pictures are of lower resolution (1024x683)
Bottom Line:
Fully Clothed Sex is one of OrgyMax sites. While I've joined OrgyMax because of PartyHardcore (see my review on it), nevertheless I think FullyClothedSex is an addition worthy spending time on writing it's own review.
Overall, this site is about (surprise, surprise ;-) ) Fully Clothed Sex. Several girls (or guys) gather together, but unlike most of the other sites, they don't rush to undress before having sex. It includes all kinds of mini-variations, from the girl just pulling her skirt up and sliding her panties aside, to the guy tearing away her jeans. Action is usually boy/girl/girl with an occasional boy/boy/girl, always oral and full penetration, no anal (at least I didn't find one). Lighting and cameramen work are EXCELLENT.
Answering questions of Wittiguy in comments: while pictures are still 1024x683, they're EXTREMELY clear (not sure if it was the case before). As for videos, now there is an option to download the whole scene (20-25 minutes), and "standard" WMVs are 640x360 @1.1kbit/s, with HD videos added of 1280x720 @3Mbit/s (though as with PartyHardCore, I think they're on a blurrier side for this bitrate).
Bottom line: while I'm not sure this site could stay on it's own (especially with the price like this), I think it is a very good bonus to those who want to join some other OrgyMax site (probably PartyHardcore, though your tastes may vary). Or if you're into exactly this fetish, it should be a very good shot too.

Pros:
+++ VERY unique idea
++ supposedly amateur girls sucking male strippers in the heat of the party
++ maybe (probably?) there are even REAL amateurs there.
++ action is very hot for supposedly amateur party: stripping, sucking, and up to full sex.
+ decent video quality
+ other OrgyMax sites included
Cons:
-- it unclear how much of the action is staged and how much is "real"
- there are no clear markings when one party ends and another starts; took some time to figure it out.
- price
Bottom Line:
When I first got to PartyHardcore member zone, I was seriously disappointed. The first clip I've got was some action without beginning and without end, just "out of blue". It took some time to realize that every scene is actually splitted into 4 parts, and that it is completely up to me to find out where the whole scene begins and where it ends. I don't have problems with splitting 2-hour-long movie into 4 updates, but guys, you could at least make it clear that these 4 updates are a part of one big scene.
But when I've got past this initial disappointment and understood how PartyHardcore organizes content, things went much better. First of all, it is a REALLY original idea, not to be found anywhere else. It shows a all-girl party with a few male strippers thrown in. Quite obviously, it starts with the stripper guy stripping, but it doesn't end there. Some girls (most likely professional adult models) start sucking the stripper guys and even fucking them, but the most exciting part of the whole thing is that supposedly amateur girls join them too. It is impossible to judge if there are real amateur girls participating in hardcore action, but it indeed looks rather genuine.
Technically videos are of about average to good quality: recent "normal" videos are 640x360 @1.1kbit/s, HD videos are 1280x720 @3Mbit/s, though I'd say HD ones are rather blurry for this kind of size. Recent pictures are suprisingly clear, though not too big in size.
Bottom line: despite outrageously high price, content (and idea) is absolutely unique, so if you're bored from "same old, same old" stuff, and are excited about the idea of real amateur girls having sex during real party, you might want to try it.

Pros:
++ huge selection of DVDs
++ rather good quality
+ search feature with both keywords and categories
+ "DVD Collection" and "Scene Collection" features
+ frequent updates (though with this number of DVDs already existing I don't really care)
Cons:
--- pre-checked cross-sales
-- with a few exceptions, same old, same old.
- no WMV format
- categories are quite limited and mostly about action types (Oral, Anal, DP and so on)
- no option to download whole DVD at once
Bottom Line:
I've tried VideosZ as a typical DVD video site, and it is indeed such a site. For somebody didn't try such sites before, I would describe it as a huuuuge adult video store with your regular DVDs on the shelves, with the only (though very important) difference being that all those DVDs are virtual and are essentially free (as long as you're paying for your monthly membership).
As in your usual "adult video store", DVD selection can be rather large, but unfortunately it's essentially the same old thing, with 99% being very similar, all shoot in cheap motel, with little or no attention to lighting or cameraguy work, with the only difference being what kind of actions you can find inside, but even the different actions are very limited and cannot keep attention for a long time. If actions on the milder side, you usually get better girls, if actions are on wilder side, you usually get worse girls, down to outright ugly ones. Overall, IMHO this whole site is very good in showing the crisis of the adult industry in general, and IMHO this crisis is not because of sites like PornTube or financial meltdown, but because of lack of creativity of those guys who're making DVDs and adult sites. Sure, there are a few notable exceptions, like Private DVDs (though even Private doesn't look too good on VideosZ, not sure if it's just poor selection there, or Private has also went downhill recently) and kink.com web sites, but in general it looks that this whole industry is in the midst of a big creativity crisis.
Back to VideosZ review. As I've said, as a "syndication" site it merely reflects rather sad state of the whole industry. For me it felt rather boring.
Technically site is not bad, with a rather decent search feature (though it would be better to have categories not only on action types, like "Double Blowjob", but also on type of setting). "DVD Collection" and "Scene Collection" are convenient additions. What annoyed me was VideosZ's selection of video formats. In Windows-dominated world I personally consider forcing me to install DivX as an insult, and I'm not crazy about MP4 on Windows PC too; gimme WMV, and I welcome the rest as nice extras, but lack of WMV creates an additional hassle for me which I don't like.
Bottom line: VideosZ a very good example of a "typical DVD site", with the biggest problem being lack of creativity by DVD publishers. The rest is quite ok, and if you're not bored from "same old, same old" stuff, it might be worth a try. I would rate VideosZ at decent 80, but I feel obligated to penalize it for pre-checked cross-sales, so overall score goes down to 75.

Pros:
+++ absolutely unique concept
++ unscripted real wrestling
++ girls are mostly friendly to each other during the wrestling (though not in last round)
+ nice girls
+ good video quality (up to HD 1280x720 at about 1.5Mbit/s)
+ updated 5 times a month (with FULL episode every time)
+ user feedback and comments
+ easy site navigation
+ full movie download (instead of ZIPs).
Cons:
- action in the last round is scripted
- not too much variety in the last round
- ZIPped video download seems to be gone (replaced with full movie download)
Bottom Line:
Recently I re-joined UltimateSurrender and found that now it became even better (sorry for marketing-speak, but that's exactly my feeling).
The site is about girls wrestling almost nude to nude while getting extra points for actions like opponent pussy fingering, smothering her face with pussy and so on. Every match starts with girls wearing panties (recently bikinis were introduced), but they are removed very quickly (panties removal of the opponent means 5 points, so they have an incentive to do it). After the wrestling, winner (with the most points) gets to punish the loser in the so-called "final round", which usually includes mild humiliation, strap-on action (sometimes anal), forced pussy licking and so on.
Kink.com says that wrestling is unscripted, and I do believe it (they're about the only site I believe is unscripted); recently they even started to do some matches in front of live audience. Final round though is scripted almost for sure (or at least very strict restrictions are placed on the winners), which obviously reduces variety of final round a bit.
Video quality is very decent (up to HD 1280x720 at about 1.5Mbit/s; non-HD is also quite good with 960x540 at about 1MBit/s, pictures can be downloaded as ZIPs, recently an option to download whole video has been introduced (instead of ZIP with video parts).
Since my previous review UltimateSurrender has made several improvements, which contributed to making the site "even better". Most importantly,
they introduced tag team matches; one cannot overestimate their importance, they change the game and overall feeling COMPLETELY. The next thing was that they have made tag team matches translated 'live' and in front of live audience (which added some additional twist and adds a bit of variety). As for more minor changes, they have introduced bikinis (IMHO nice touch, but would be nicer if points are given for top removal too), provided a bit better video quality and
fixed problems with their previous crappy login system (now it works like a breeze, no need to relogin after leaving session unattended for a few hours).
Overall, after coming to this site once again, I almost lost doubt that as of now, it is THE VERY BEST site on the net for me personally, so I've upgraded it's rating to 98 (the very first 98 I've ever set on PornUsers).
Bottom line: if you are not scared by "girls-only" action and by the very concept of female wrestling, you shall at least take a look at their tour pages; BTW, better samples about this and the other kink.com sites can be found on free-hardcore.com . Admittedly, it is so unusual, that it can be "love-it-or-hate-it", but if you like the tour and samples, I think you will like it inside too.

Pros:
+ interracial orgy as advertised
+ black guys with big dicks on latina girls as advertised
+ plenty of action, including anal
+ decent quality pictures
+ lots of bonus sites (FilthFreaks network)
Cons:
----- most episodes are incomplete (see explanation below)
-- only 400x300 video clips
-- PRE_CHECKED cross-sales when purchasing
- cross-sales within member area
-- supposedly no updates
Bottom Line:
After pretty good experience with FilthFreak's BubbleButtOrgy, I've decided to try another their site Orgyental, and was fased with a MAJOR disappointment. While all parameters of Orgyental are about the same as BubbleButtOrgy, and it should have ended up with a similar rating, there is one HUGE thing which is different between these 2 sites, and it is that Orgyental just doesn't work properly.
Like BubbleButtOrgy, Orgyental is about multi-guy multi-girl orgy, the difference is that for Orgyental girls are latina (and the guys are still black). Like BubbleButtOrgy, Orgyental has some introductory stuff which makes things more interesting. Like BubbleButtOrgy, Orgyental starts mildly and then goes to all-out orgy.
But here is where the difference kicks in. While Orgyental has 24 episodes, and it looks that every episode was intended to consist of 15-20 5-minute clips, on site there are only 2 (or so) full episodes, and the rest just abruptly ends after 5-7 clips, leaving the best part out. Most likely it is just a technical oversight, but as a user I don't really care.
Bottom line: if it would be a single site, I would say it is outright rip-off, but as it is a part of the network, I won't be that harsh. On the other hand, such sites make me frustrated, which definitely affects overall feeling about the whole network (which BTW wasn't that high from the very beginning).

Pros:
+ orgy as advertised
+ all-black action as advertised (black guys, black girls)
+ plenty of action, including anal and occasional DP
++ real emotions (or a very good imitation)
+ initial conversation adds an additional twist
+ decent quality pictures
+- decent lighting and cameraguy work (at least compared to previously reviewed FilthFreaks sites)
Cons:
- girls are not models, some are ugly
-- only 400x300 clips
-- PRE_CHECKED cross-sales when purchasing
- cross-sales within member area
- technical problems with the site
- no ZIPped downloads
-- supposedly no updates
Bottom Line:
After disappointment with first two sites of FilthFreaks network (see my reviews of BlackGangWhiteBang and ALuckyStranger), I didn't really expect much from BubbleButtOrgy, and I shall say that I was pleasantly surprised with it.
The site is about several black girls (4 to 6) and several black guys (about the same number) having fun together. Girls are not models, and some are ugly, but on the plus side they seem to have fun (unlike girls in BlackGangWhiteBang). Every episode starts with some conversation and/or girls showing their assets (usually assets are substantial), and then it moves towards the all-out orgy, which usually includes some anal, and sometimes includes DP.
Site has about 22 episodes, each consisting of 12-20 clips 5 minutes each. This is where lack of ZIP-ped downloads kicks in, as downloading 20 clips one by one is not fun. Unlike BlackGangWhiteBang and ALuckyStranger, pictures are not screencaps, but are from separate photoshoot, and are of decent size (varies, but can be as much as 2900 width). Updates are not dated and most likely are absent. As with the other FilthFreaks sites, I've experienced a few "Cannot find server" errors.
Bottom line: not bad content, provided that you're not scared by mediocre girls (who on the plus side can have fun on camera). Unfortunately, lack of updates and minor glitches here and there make this site not so interesting, but if FilthFreaks have more sites of similar quality (and NOT like BlackGangWhiteBang and ALuckyStranger), the network might be worth the price (again, if you're not scared away by mediocre girls).

Pros:
+ "stranger" storyline
+ really average-looking guys
+ quite long pre-action video, adding some additional twist
+ lots of bonus sites (FilthFreaks network)
Cons:
-- I don't really believe in "as a member of ALuckyStranger.com you could win a chance to have blindfolded sex with anonymous strangers aka pornstars!"
- girls attractiveness varies
- poor lighting
- only 640x480 clips of rather poor quality
- pictures are 640x480, probably video screencaps
-- PRE_CHECKED cross-sales when purchasing
- cross-sales within member area
- minor technical problems with the site
The site leaves mixed feelings. On one hand, the idea is not bad (though I don't really believe any site which claims that it's members will have a chance to fuck models). On the other hand, it is rather poorly implemented.
Quality of videos is limited to rather poor 640x480 @800kBit/s (looks that guys didn't know what deinterlacing is about); lighting is poor, girls are not top-notch (though are not that ugly as on BlackGandWhiteBang), actions are not too different from each other.
Site has about 35 episodes, each consisting of 4-5 clips of up to 10 minutes each. Pictures are about 1024x768, but quality is poor (like that of screencaps). Like on BlackGandWhiteBang, updates are not dated and most likely are infrequent. Also I've experienced the same several minor technical problems (like "Cannot find server" errors), as on BlackGandWhiteBang.
Overall, while judging from just two sites can be too early, it seems to me that this whole FilthFreaks network is just an attempt to resell some old content. While I don't see anything bad with this idea as such, but for FilthFreaks content quality (from model selection to encoding), which wasn't top-notch (to put it mildly) even when it was produced, looks even worse these days.
Bottom line: if all the sites in the network will be of such dubious quality, I don't think it will be attractive even at the special PU price; there are many places where you can get MUCH better content at at least comparable prices. Still, stay tuned for further reviews of FilthFreak sites.

Pros:
+ hardcore action (multiple penetrations including double anal), as advertised
+ interracial content in every episode, as advertised
+ the girl usually undresses before action starts, adding some additional twist
+ lots of bonus sites (FilthFreaks network)
Cons:
-- about the same thing in every episode
-- too often girls are ugly
-- girls don't like it
- no attention to settings
- poor lighting
-- only 400x300 clips
- pictures are 640x480, probably video screencaps
-- PRE_CHECKED cross-sales when purchasing
- cross-sales within member area
- technical problems with the site
Bottom Line:
Coming back from oblivion :-), I've recently subscribed to a new (for me) Filth Freak network. Unfortunately, so far it disappoints me.
At the first glance, BlackGangWhiteBang has everything it advertises - white girls taking four big guys in every hole, sometimes with double anal. So far so good. But then a few things start to annoy. First of all, videos with 400x300 resolution? I've double-checked my calendar, and found that it's 2009 out there, so these 400x300 clips look a bit out of date. Sorry guys, it's not what most people expect, even if it is crystal clear 400x300 at 1500kBit/s. I'm not asking for 1080i or something, but these days everything below 768 or so is way too small.
Further, some of the girls are outright ugly, and out of the rest most don't even pretend they're enjoying it. I know, it's difficult to find girls who enjoy this kind of stuff, but it's a job of any good site to find such girls, and I've seen sites with girls who seem to enjoy it.
From minor annoyances I shall mention poor (or non-existent?) lighting and quite poor settings, on the plus side - a bit of striptease before the action starts.
Site has about 25 episodes, each consisting of 5-8 clips 5 minutes each. Pictures are 640x480, most likely screencaps. Updates are not dated and most likely are infrequent. I've experienced several minor technical problems, like some "Cannot find server" errors and some links leading nowhere, nothing too bad but still annoying.
Bottom line: I don't think that this site will be of interest to anybody except for fans of interracial gangbangs, and even for them the value is significantly reduced by poor video quality and ugly girls disliking what they are doing. While the rest of the network MIGHT have some value, but if all the sites are like this one, the whole network won't IMHO be worth even PU special price.

Pros:
++ quality of graphics is good
++ variety of actions is large
++ variety of toys is HUGE (including sex machines)
++ variety of outfits is large
++ variety of locations is HUGE
+ customization of almost everything (vagina,penis,body,...)
+ "Sex Coins" pseudo-currency to keep things interesting
Cons:
-- animation isn't so good
-- out of all the actions, a few are duo and VERY few are 3-some
- VERY few pose changes are animated
- undressing is not animated
- convoluted interface (tutorial and "hints" required to play sex game? Come on).
- need connection to play
- slow web site
- Downloading 65M update right after download? Gimme a break.
Bottom Line:
Continuing my quest in looking for a good 3D sex game, I've tried 3D Sex Villa (this is the game which you get when subscribing to the site). Well, after all the good reviews about it on PornUsers I was quite disappointed (it's definitely not bad, but IMHO doesn't warrant 90+ score).
First of all, to clarify - it is yet another "3D sex game" along the same lines as ActiveDolls and PlaySexGame - you have models, put them into some location, choose position and tell them to have sex. That's fine. At the beginning most positions, locations and models aren't available, and you need to fuck around a bit (literally) to get more (when having sex, you earn so-called "Sex Coins" to spend on "sex packs" which include positions or
toys or models). That's IMHO even better to keep things a bit more interesting.
But then comes a worse part. First of all, controls are convoluted; while the game has tutorial on controls, it's not really what I expect from rather primitive sex game. Also while graphics itself is good, animation isn't IMHO so good; I even doubt if they used motion capture to animate things (it looks more as a good imitation of physical model, than mo-cap), and faces have VERY limited animation. Outfits don't always fit good, and penetrations aren't always "clean" too. Overall, IMHO 3D Sex Villa's 3D graphics+animation feeling is SIGNIFICANTLY worse than that of ActiveDolls.
On the plus side, overall variety is HUGE: you can choose from REALLY HUGE set of models, outfits, locations, plus can customize almost everything (most of variety comes in "sex packs" but as long as it costs nothing rather than playing, it's perfectly ok with me). As some drawback to this variety, I want to mention that while they've added threesomes, they're EXTREMELY limited (formally there are 5 threesome actions, but some are so similar, that I'd say there are only 2).
And IMHO all that variety didn't make it significantly more interesting - it's still all the same routine of selecting location, moving to position and asking the girl to fuck. Models lack personality, so changing them doesn't really help, positions aren't too different, and outfits don't look too "natural", so apparently despite all the variety it still looks pretty much the same all the time, with some real variety added only by a few special locations like "Fetish Club".
Bottom line: while this game definitely outperforms ANY other 3D sex game I've seen in number of available options, action still looks pretty much the same. Overall, my feeling is that it's "entertainment value" is about the same with "ActiveDolls" (3D Sex Villa has MUCH more options to choose from, but ActiveDolls have IMHO SIGNIFICANTLY better 3D graphics+animation). So I've rated it the same as ActiveDolls.

Pros:
++ very original idea
++ video quality is EXCELLENT
++ mood/attitude/personality of the girls is EXCELLENT - they enjoy it
+ fun to see news anchor undressing
+ different outfits and strip patterns
+ pussy haircuts
+ cheap
Cons:
-- about 50% of the time there is no undressing, girls start nude
-- there is at least one girl which is outright UGLY
- very few REALLY good-looking girls
Bottom Line:
I've re-joined "Naked News" recently, and shall say I've got mixed feelings about it.
It is still news and the girls are still stripping while reading them, and it is still one show every day. The girls are still stripping to all-nude, but not more (not even anything "pink", no teasing, nothing). That's what the site is about, and I don't see any problems with it, just want to be clear.
The first problem I see with it is that while they have some variety by adding different outfits and strip patterns, about half of the time girls start nude, so there is no room to strip further, and no variety :-(.
The second problem is while they're hiring girls who enjoy it, and that's perfectly fine, but there shall be some minimal look standards; there is at least one regular girl which is IMHO OUTRIGHT ugly, and for me it is a major turn-off. I don't have problems with "average-looking" girls there (most of their girls are average-looking and I'm ok with it as long as they have nice personality, and they usually do), but this one is different.
On the positive side, it looks that site has started to pay some attention to make it a bit more erotic: while there is still no "pink" and no "teasing", it looks that girls have started to make nice pussy haircuts :-) (warning - you won't see any close-ups of it, the view is always like in the "normal" news - either full-height or above-waist).
Bottom line: a site which can be fun to see for a month (if you're ok with "just nudity"), but as a long-term fun I don't really see it happening. It IMHO even became a (tiny) bit worse than a year ago because of problems outlined above, and it's reflected in the score. If they would add more stripping variety (outfits, stripping patterns and so on), and pay a BIT more attention to girl looks (I REALLY like girls smiling and have no problems with "average looking" girls, but there shall be some minimal standard) it IMHO could help significantly.

Pros:
+++ beautiful locations
+++ beautiful models
+++ mostly right mood of the models
+++ professional photography
++ "best of FEMJOY"
+ daily updates
+ variety of video formats
+ reasonable default for pic size (fits into normal screen)
Cons:
-- nude-only, almost no undressing
-- movies are recording of photoshoots
- no "extras"
- lack of categorized search
Bottom Line:
After trying MetArt (see my review) I've decided to try another top-rated site with about the same idea. As a result of reviews being that close, I will mostly compare these two sites.
But first, I shall note that screenshot on PU doesn't do justice FEMJOY's home page - it looks really ugly, while FEMJOY's design is very clean and clear.
Now to site comparison on different accounts:
1. "Art". IMHO MetArt is a bit better in this category (while FEMJOY is good, MetArt's pictures are IMHO a bit more "artistic", at least the covers).
2. Beauty of the girls. IMHO about the same ("stunning" is the right word for it).
3. Mood of the girls. As it was mentioned about MetArt, girls there look "bored"; as Monahan has put it for MetArt, "There is no real "fire" in many (most?) of the pics". It is IMHO MUCH better with FEMJOY, so FEMJOY is a clear winner here.
4. Quality of photography. IMHO about the same (MetArt has better "covers", but FEMJOY gets it IMHO a bit better "inside" galleries).
5. Beauty of locations. IMHO MetArt has a bit better locations overall.
6. Variety. Because of clothing and undressing on MetArt, they win this one.
7. "Extras". Free web-cam obviously brings MetArt some extra value.
Bottom line: these 2 sites (FEMJOY and MetArt) represent about the same niche, and while they obviously have their differences, overall I can't say that one is clearly better than the other one, hence the same rating for FEMJOY as it was for MetArt.

Pros:
+++ beautiful locations
+++ VARIETY of beautiful locations
+++ beautiful models
+++ professional photography
++ variety of outfits
++ free cam
+ daily updates
+ variety of video formats
+ convenient navigation
Cons:
-- too much difference between cover page and gallery contents (see explanation below)
-- mood of some models can be better
-- movies are just recording of photoshoots
- resolution selection is not preserved
- obsession with bandwidth for movies (6Mbit/sec WMV is too much for me)
- lack of search
Bottom Line:
I've decided to join Met-Arts mostly because of cover pages of their daily issues, and those are pieces of art, really. But what really surprised and quite disappointed me was that inside their galleries feel quite different from the cover page. Met-Art doesn't "cheat", and "cover" is from the same gallery, but overall feeling is still VERY different. Sure, everybody selects the very best shot for cover page, but IMHO Met-Arts kind of contrast between cover and gallery itself is unusual both for paper magazines and web sites. Fortunately, Met Art has archives and IMHO back in 2006 and earlier this difference WASN'T THAT BIG. In general, I liked old galleries MUCH better. It's both good and bad to know, as on one hand, it means I can find galleries I like more, on the other hand, means that quality of Met-Art galleries (from my subjective perspective) goes downhill :-(.
Another thing that bothered me (and which isn't present on "covers") is mood of the girls. Granted, they're REALLY beautiful, but it is quite clear from the pictures (and videos) that most of them are just doing pretty boring job; I don't mind what they really think, but when it becomes obvious on the picture, then IMHO something is wrong. And again, this wasn't that much of a problem as late as in 2007.
In addition, I shall say that I'm not fond of picture sizes like 3328x4992: I never print such pictures, I don't have monitor that large, and don't think I will ever get one in foreseeable future (monitor with 4992 HEIGHT? even if such a beast exists, I'm afraid even to think how much it costs). I obviously don't mind about such pictures as long as Met-Arts provides lower resolutions, but I don't consider such HUGE pictures as an advantage too. But one thing calls for improvement, and it is that if I've selected "Mid-Res" once, then ALL the galleries shall start to be shown as "Mid-Res" (now they still default to "Hi-Res").
Bottom line: Met Art is one of VERY few sites on the Net with potential to make erotic ART, but unfortunately it (IMHO) doesn't realize this potential. Also I had a pretty hard time rating it, so to do it, I've compared how much I enjoy it with another softcore site I've recently joined - VirtuaGirlHD (I know it's apples and oranges, but I don't have any better reference). And IMHO MetArt's old galleries are about on par with VirtuaGirlHD (88), and recent ones are significantly lower, about 82, so I've took average (85) as an overall rating.

Pros:
++ 3D virtual photostudio with girls willing to pose
++ 6 different girls
++ EXCELLENT 3D graphics quality
++ WILD variety of outfits
+ option of g/g strap-on action
+ movements between poses are animated
+ free download to get an idea (no nudity and only one girl in free version, but quality is the same)
Cons:
-- limited variety of actions
-- duo (g/g) action seems to be added later and not so-well developed or integrated
- no b/g
-- undressing is not animated
- movements between poses sometimes look wierd.
Bottom Line:
This site is both quite similar and quite different from other 3D games I've recently seen (see my reviews of 3DPlaything and PlaySexGame). It is similar because it is downloadable real 3D game with ability to control camera angle, zoom, lighting and so on. It is different because of quality of implementation - ActiveDolls IMHO presents MUCH better 3D graphics, attention to details and overall experience.
First of all, you get six girls to play with. And variety of outfits to dress them is HUGE - I'd say it's at least a few hundred of different items. Then, you get a girl into some setting where you can tell her to change pose (moving is animated, but sometimes looks strange) or to undress (undressing is not animated). Then you can either to control her movements, or tell her to please herself, and then you get your virtual camera (even with lighting control and some effects, like sepia) to take shots of the girl and make an album out of them. Girls look VERY good, and all the details and UI are well-organized and convenient. What makes this game not so interesting is lack of sex and lack of variety; poses are the same in every setting, there is no b/g sex, and g/g sex is VERY limited (looks that it was added later and it isn't as integral part of the game as the rest).
Bottom line: so far clearly the best out of all the games of similar nature I've seen; still, lack of different actions limit it's attractiveness. On the other hand, if running photo studio with beautiful girls willing to strip and perform solo actions according to your wishes has always been an unsatisfied dream of yours, this game can be just for you.
