Theres a few shadows, but all of them feel natural. Music: None. Disc Problems / Complaints: The time stamp is kind of odd.

Initial Reaction: Its even better than the original! Who Should Watch It : Anybody wanting fresh talent without too many pot-bellied guys initiating them Who Should Avoid It: Anybody wanting fresh talent theyve never heard of before or girls who look like theyre scared and unsure of themselves Audio /Video Quality: The technical aspects are a little below Wickeds normal standards, but far above what this type of feature normally has. The audio is a little low and off balance in parts, but most of it is very good. The video is very clear, but there is some over lighting and you can see the cameraman many times throughout the feature.

Review brief: Running Time: 139 min. Production Date: 10 / 01 / 1999 Director: Joey Silvera Cast: Susanna Initial Expectations: Ive been really impressed with this entire series, so Im going in with very high expectations. Initial Reaction: Its a bit different from some of the earlier episodes in the series, but might be one of the best. Who Should Watch It : Raincoaters, fans of European stars, and anybody looking for something a bit different Who Should Avoid It: Anybody who wants to be bored with porn or who wants things so pretty they lose most of the heat Audio /Video Quality: The audio and video are fairly standard for gonzo porn. The audio is occasionally a little off balance, but often clear. The video is also clear and well lit, but does have a little bit of shake and soft focus blurs. Although this would hurt many features, here it almost enhances things. The Please series has kind of a primal feel to it, and the few minor problems here and there fit it amazingly well. Music: None.

Review brief: Production Date: 4 / 14 / 2001 Director: Joone Cast: Taylor Hayes and you Initial Expectations: Ive heard very good things about this DVD, so Im going in with high hopes. Initial Reaction: Its one of the best virtual sex simulators Ive seen so far. Who Should Watch It : Fans of virtual sex or Taylor Hayes Who Should Avoid It: Anybody who wants to just watch sex between two or more people Audio /Video Quality: The audio is bordering on excellent. The only thing that holds it back is a couple spots with minor background noises such as a phone ringing and somebody walking nearby. The walking was barely noticeable, but the phone was very noticeable and seemed to go on for a bit. The video is much the same. Its near flawless with the only problems being the extras are slightly grainy. Other than that, the video is next to perfect. Music: None Menus: The menus are basically integrated into the actual feature.

Who Should Watch It : Anybody who wants to admire the female form Who Should Avoid It: Anybody wanting actual sex Audio /Video Quality: The intro to each scene is very clear, but the music is the only audio in each scene. The video is very clear throughout the entire feature, although some of the extras lack a bit for video quality. Music: The music has a techno style throughout the entire feature, which works pretty well. Disc Problems / Complaints: Unlike most of Vivids recent releases, there isnt an option to turn off the multi-angle icon.

The video is normally very clear and without shadow problems. It also mixes color and black and white, which gives some of the scenes a bit more of an artistic feel. There are a few spots where you can see the lighting change as the views change and a few soft focus problems, but neither interfere much.

Theres also a bit of over-lighting that bleaches out some of the colors. Most of these problems occur in the areas other than the actual virtual sex portion of the DVD.
