I have to admit that any time I hear a site is promising the biggest portal of porn, I have my reservations. Whenever they say they have the best sex stories, I'm even more suspicious, since I have read the best and am betting I wont be seeing Anaïs Nin's name anywhere within the site, but all of this aside, I will keep an open mind while I explore 3 Sex.
The site updates weekly, which is fine for an exclusive site that needs to produce their own content, but for a site that offers third party content, I'm admittedly baffled as to why they don't update daily, although it's not like they don't have a lot of content. Indeed, 3Sex has a mountain of videos, photos and erotic stories, games and even sex shop links, if you're in the mood for some toys.
I wasn't surprised to find a variety of niches, and it looks like this site offers 27 categories from solo girls to teens, from big cocks to big boobs and they even include cartoons, fetish and heavy women. There's certainly a feast for every taste here, and there are 118 plug-in sites available, which is hardly the largest archive I have ever seen but not the smallest either.
There are two featured photo galleries, although I am certain that a few of the leased sites also provide pictures. Here you gain access to the professional Viv Thomas Gallery and Amateur Hardcore. There can be anywhere from 40 to 100 images in each set, and they're nicely sized 678x1024 .jpgs. You can always count on Viv Thomas for gorgeous babes and glamour photos and the amateur site gives a great selection of reality style hardcore shots, as well.
There are live girls, but I didn't happen to catch sight of the best erotic stories I was promised. Nonetheless, there are movies and plenty of them. Now, I wasn't expecting much from the films except that they have a broadband speed of about 500Kbps, and I was right. Most of the sites include embedded or pop-up Windows Media, QuickTime and Real Player streams with a 520Kbps bitrate and a screen size of 320x240 or 640x480. The images are clear enough, yet many of the films have mono sound, which gives a tin cup sound to the action. The majority of sites are amateur or reality style films with on the street or living room interviews with the models before diving head first, or so to speak, into a mouth, pussy or ass as the hardcore niche determines. The action is hot, but don't expect high production values from many of these gonzo-style films.
Final Verdict
If you like porn and lots of it, then I see no real reason why you wouldn't enjoy 3Sex. It has good quality movies, albeit not the best, some great looking models and a load of hardcore. However, many of the plug-ins can be found on just about any other site I've seen and that's usually in addition to weekly updated and originally produced content. Also, I know for a fact that there are other archive sites out there with a whole lot more content, and even those sites do have stories - which I never did find on this site - games, e-zines and a lot more. This is one of those buyer beware sites in my opinion.
