| Bottom Line: |
This site is part of the My XXX Pass network but it is relatively unique and I figured worthy of a review.
First, I should point out that even though the main claim of the site is that the posts are recorded live I didn’t actually watch any of them as they were being streamed. All of the shoots are available as part of the archive and are easily downloadable so that was what I opted for. Given that the shoots are recorded as they were happening I was a bit disappointed to see that there really isn’t much interaction between the performers and the viewing members. In the scenes where there was communication via chat that added to the heat of the scene. Regardless of this oversight, the shoots are still great to watch but for a live site they lack that extra element of interaction that usually comes with live shoots.
The site is further broken down into ten categories, most of which have self-explanatory titles. These are (with the number of scenes currently on the site in brackets):
• Boot Camp (7)
• Cocksucking Challenge (48)
• Fuck a Fan (2)
• Immoral Live (22)
• Immoral Orgies (60)
• New Girl in Town (31)
• Squirtamania (99)
• Titterific (54)
• Toss My Salad (19)
• Wheel of Debauchery (76)
This is, admittedly, very subjective, but I found the Wheel of Debauchery scenes to be the most fun to watch. The gimmick is a large wheel with various sex acts written around the edge so the model spins it and does what the wheel lands on. (The funny part is that there is, quite obviously, someone laying down outside the camera’s view stopping the wheel on specific acts. That makes sense, since a model who doesn’t do anal isn’t going to start just because the wheel stops on ‘anal.’) I also like the premise of Fuck a Fan and hope they shoot more of those.
Most of the scenes feature some of the biggest names in porn so you know there will be a high level of professionalism. The professionalism applies to the production values too, with the camerawork and lighting being well done too.
The site updates regularly with a new live scene being shot every several days. I don’t know how long it takes to upload a scene to the archive but it doesn’t appear to be too long.
The site has a good sort feature so you can sort for just the scenes on Boot Camp, for example, if that’s your preference. You can also sort by star and there is a search function too but I found that the latter didn’t work well as any scene found that way linked back to the main page rather than the scene you wanted.
Like other sites affiliated with Gamma, there are a lot of options for how you view or download the scenes. WMV downloads are offered in resolutions of 160, 240 and 360. Mp4s are offered in 160, 240, 360, 480, 540, 720 and 1080. Streaming is available as 160, 240, 360, 480 and 540 and mobile users can download in 160, 240, 360, 48, 540 and 720. I downloaded the 720p and those came in at 1280x720 at 4000kb/s and 30fps. (Some of these options aren’t available for older videos.) I’d normally go for the highest resolution available but those aren’t for the faint of heart. Most of the scenes are well over an hour long, and some can last more than three hours, so a scene of that length at 1080p is close to 10GB. I figured that 720p was a good compromise. To their credit, the site has no obvious download limit so if you really wanted the best there is nothing stopping you from getting the best. The 720p look great on both a 24” monitor and a 32” TV.
Also like other sites affiliated with Gamma Entertainment, you need to be careful with your membership information to ensure where you need to go to cancel. It appears that there are many sites that they use for billing (all owned by Gamma, I assume) and you need to save your confirmation email to get the site you’re billed through. Losing that information would probably cause some frustration. Even with that information, cancelling is a bit more involved than with CCBill, Epoch or the other big billers. Here you have to enter credit card information and a captcha which brings you to a further screen where you have to enter your membership name and email address and another captcha. It works, but until I learned to save all my membership information I got frustrated trying to cancel.
Another advantage to the site is that joining through TBP / PU gets you a significant discount. That’s the good news. The bad news is that this discount won’t carry through past the first month so be careful to cancel if you don’t want to see the price double. (I should add that in many cases with Gamma sites you’re offered the first-month price when you start the cancellation procedure.)
The bottom line is that this is a fun site to watch. It’s got some of the hottest models in the business. The production values are high, the site supports download managers and doesn’t have any download limits. On top of all of this you get it all for a great discount. |
