What more can you say about Europe Hotties that the tour doesn't lay out for you? You can see all the flags represented, and of course some European chicks getting it on in several previews. The site is part of the Brain Pass network of sites, meaning you get access to all 47 of them with your membership. They generally produce good-looking, exclusive content overall, and their network is one of the better ones out there. They always have new sites, though a lot of the older ones fail to update (as is the case here at Europe Hotties too unfortunately). $30 a month gets you into the site, which is slightly on the high side of normal.
The goods:
- Exclusive content. As with all the sites they produce, the content here is all exclusive. I'm not sure if they technically shoot it in house (I think they do), but it doesn't matter since it has the same feeling that they do either way.
- Network access included. Their network has really grown a lot over the last couple of years. They're always adding new sites and content.
- Videos usually look decent. The specs on their DVD-quality videos are pretty good, which in turn makes the videos look good. Read below for a small issue I had with a couple videos, but it wasn't in the majority.
The bads:
- No longer updating. This is probably the biggest deal killer. They haven't updated this particular site in several months, which seems to be the case for a lot of their sites sometimes. They get them up and running, and then updates are few and far between. There's always something new on the network as a whole, but if you're a fan of this European stuff, that may not help.
- Some videos have weird issues. There were a couple videos that had some weird coloring or pixelation issues going on. It usually happened if you were watching the video while downloading it, and it wasn't awful, but it was there. Thankfully it wasn't in the majority, and could have been an encoding fluke.
Conclusion:
The content here is fun and looks good, and you get access to a lot of other sites in the network. The one big bummer is the lack of updates, and I'm not sure if that's going to be a temporary thing or not. Without new material here, I can't imagine staying around if this is your main reason for joining. The network is good and can keep you busy, but only if you don't mind other types of content instead.
