Babelicious offers blondes, brunettes, babes, busty girls and sweethearts on their site, just to give you an idea what you're up for here. Their tour looks good with lots of pink around, in more ways than one if you catch my drift. I'll give you the bad news first, and that's the non-exclusive content I'm seeing plastered on the tour here. Thankfully they also put up lots of good news including three picture sizes up to 4000 pixels long, zip files, full-length video downloads, daily updates, and a good search feature are all promised inside. $20 seems about right for what I'm seeing here, and that's where they've priced it.
The goods:
- Good amount of content up. Check out their numbers for yourself, and while they're not gigantic by any means, I'd say they have up more content than a lot of sites out there. They could still use more growth seeing as they're non-exclusive, but it's a good place to start.
- Updates come daily. It looks like they add a new photoset five days a week, and the other two days are for video updates. That should definitely help the site continue to grow! I wouldn't mind giving even another day in the week for a video update, since that's what a lot of people are after these days.
- Quality is good. Pictures do go up to 4000x2600 or so as they claim in some sets, and the smaller ones are closer to 3000x2000 which is still pretty dang good. The videos are some of the better videos out there, and wouldn't get too much bigger or better without going high-definition or widescreen.
- Features and extras abound. Getting around the site is a pleasure as they give you most every feature possible. Not only can you view a model's index, but you can view them by their rating, newest first, oldest first, alphabetical, reverse alphabetical, or the lowest rated, and you can do all this with 10, 20, or 50 girls per page. That type of functionality goes throughout most of the site. They have a decent search, multiple picture sizes, multiple video options (though only one video type), etc.
The bads:
- WMV is the only video type offered. For all the options and extras here, I was surprised to see just one video type like that. They do have two quality options, and both of those come in clips or full scenes, but why not throw up a DivX or MPG file in addition to the WMV?
- Model search is hard to get to go away once opened. When clicked, it opens up a neat little window right on the page you're on to do your search. The annoying thing was if you didn't use it and went to a new page, it was still open until you figured out how to close the dang thing (just click the "search" link that you used to open it btw).
- Not much high-def content as advertised. While they advertise HD content, only five of their 200+ videos seem to come in that format, so don't come expecting a ton in that area.
Conclusion:
Babelicious is easy on the eyes and soul as you go through the site. They offer most everything you could look for in usability and options, and the content is decent too. I like what they're doing here, and I think they could clean up if they opened a similar, all-exclusive site. For now, they're doing well with what they've got though.

Review: 04-09-08 |
More content and more HD seem to be the story here this time around. They have grown of course, continuing on with the daily updates. They've hit the 300+ video mark, and are up over 650 photo galleries as well. Much more of their videos are also in high definition now than last time, which is good to see of course. The rest remains the same, but I like the few changes that have been posted here.
Score increased from 89.0 to 89.5.
