| Pros: |
Huge collection of photos and videos. Good navigation. A full decade of material available. Newer videos are excellent quality. Models come in all shapes and sizes. Nearly every big-name model you've ever heard of. Mostly US models who actually speak! |
| Cons: |
Be careful with the cross-listing when you join.
Waaay to many ads for other sites. Once you log in, you are redirected to a page with dozens of other sites to join. You have to scroll down to find the site you paid for. Not cool. Oh, and any discount offers to join the other sites are only valid for as long as you are a member at Twisty's. So if you want to join one of those sites, go find the discount someplace else.
Main sign-up is through Pro-biller in Europe someplace. These guys are pretty obscure and the only way to cancel is to contact them. One of the most important quality metrics about any website is the ease with which you can cancel. This one? Not impressed.
Scoring/ranking/search system used to be top-notch but seems to be broken now (See below).
Old categories that made it easy to find the talk-dirty-to-you videos are gone. |
| Bottom Line: |
My old review expired and I joined again, so I'm updating that review....there are several changes since last time.
Do you remember the original Danni's Hard Drive? You know, before Danni sold it? Twisty's is practically an exact replica of the original Danni site. There is a HUGE collection here that spans over a decade. New material is very good. Most of the models are big american names, mostly in porn. Decent variety in the sets locations and models. And people seem to be having fun.
All that said, there are a few things that I feel obligated to point out. First, most of the models, though popular are..um..more mature. To be fair, the site also has some very popular younger models including Malena Morgan, Dakota Sky and Michaela Isizzu. One thing about a site that has been around this long is that you can find sets that span a models entire professional career. For example, if you like Sasha Grey, there is a terrific collection here from 2009 and before. But in general you won't really see any knock-out new discoveries here as the stable is mostly pros, many of whom have had more than a little work done. A few of the more popular models are still unaltered, though...thank god.
I noticed one thing that has changed since my last visit. Most of the older models have slipped down in the "top models" list, but the sorting of "most popular" or "top rated" no longer works. Instead, what you get for both options is a list that looks like it is ordered by the webmaster's belief of what the ranking should be. Top rated lifetime model today? Dakota Sky, even though she only has 4 sets, an 84% approval rating and 483 votes. By comparison, Malena Morgan, number 4 on the list, has 7494 votes, 35 sets and a 94% approval rating. In fact, there are a lot of models rated higher than Dakota (No offense Dakota...) Something funny here... How much do you want to bet that Dakota will be a Twisty's Treat of the Month in the next few months? That kind of manipulation... uh..weirdness is a little too common here.
Lately, it looks like there has been a shift from solo model sets to full guy/girl or girl/girl sex. This might just be based on the recent models preferences, but I can't tell. I also can't tell if this is a good thing or not because it is hard to video or photograph sex well and the site will be competing with a much, much larger section of the porn market than they did with the solo girl being bad niche. What I really liked about this site before were the videos of girls paying attention to ME, talking to ME, showing themselves to ME. Lately, that attention is going to somebody else. Apparently, they've figured out that this is what live-sites are for and that there is much more money in just promoting the live sites for those who liked the "talk' sets. Too bad I don't buy live sets. A few of these talking sets show up once in a while, but they are no longer a category and don't seem to be as frequent as they used to be. If you like that kind of set, there are still some very good ones here but you will need to look through a lot to find them.
The photo sets are generally good. They are not overly staged, there is a decent variety of indoor and outdoor sets, the mix of full-body and close-up shots is good and the lighting is correct. The models are mostly solo, some with toys, but there are a few girl/girl scenes and two and three way sex scenes. There are NO shy girls here. Eventually, every girl in every solo set puts it in your face.
The network structure has changed a bit, too, but the other sites that you get free access to are still the same sets that are in the main site, just repackaged into different categories. In fact, once you enter one of the other sites, you can't tell it is a different site at all.
They have a girl of the month theme with a series of photo and video shoots released throughout the month. These range from interviews to hard core, depending on how far the models go. Long ago, these models were chosen by the subscribers. These days, I think it might be more a matter of availability or something. No real formula that I can figure out. These sets are good if you like the model.
Overall, this site is well above average with a huge selection of images and videos. The girls are mostly mature, large breasted and in many cases enhanced a bit. The images are good but not too glam-ee and, from what I can tell, not overly touched up. I got in on a discounted rate but since it is difficult to cancel, I ended up getting hit for a second month at the full price. Ouch. Still, it is positively worth a visit at least one a year, especially at the discounted rate. |
