(300 credits)Metro Babes is a pay-per-minute live webcam show site. The guest portion of the site is set-up like an open book so non-members see the collection just as members do. The obvious exception is that visitors can't do private or voyeur shows since they have no account or credits. The system is a pre-paid credits and models have their price listed in number of credits per minute.
One of the fundamental issues for any live show site the webcam show interface and the quality of the video. Metro Babes has a pretty sharp looking design for the webcam video and chat. I'm not a techie and found it easy to use right from the get go. Guests can even get a sampling by viewing models with free chat. The video quality is all right and it's a smooth picture which is important.
The models are color-coded to indicate whether they're doing free chat, in a private show, or nude chat. Free chat is easy and once there you can click to go private at the per minute rate. Models in private shows can be viewed thru voyeur which allows you to see the show but not chat. Nude chat is where you must use credits right from the start. All of these functions are clearly laid out whenever they're available or required.
When you have credits on your account that total is posted at the top right of the page. Credit cost is shown on each model and whenever you are entering a per-minute show clear prompts show up allowing you to accept or decline the option. A "member area" page has a historical log of credit purchases and use.
Model pages generally have some pretty good information about the performer.
FAQ page has a helpful rundown of the different site features and options.
There are a lot of live webcam show sites out there and generally speaking they have a similar format. Metro Babes is no exception and I don't see any particular feature that would set them apart from the crowd. The number of models available and video quality are fine but not exceptional.
There are some rudimentary filter tools here particularly for bringing up the models doing either Free, Nude, or Voyeur. From what I see the list includes all the online performers. There doesn't appear to be a way to browse or explore models that are in their database but not currently online.
This is simply the nature of pay-per-minute live webcam sites. As they say on the FAQ page the cost ranges from $2.99-$5.99/min. With the credit system in place you might have to do some math to calculate a give model's exact price in dollars. Model fan clubs upsells are a part of things here with info on that on their bio pages and per-month pricing for the clubs.
Can't see a preview for models with "nude chat" status before using credits to enter show.
Recorded shows are only available for those who join a model's fan club.
As far as reviews go on webcam sites like this the best thing for us to do is provide a breakdown of the actual features more than the content. Entertainment value of the individual shows is so subjective based on the model and your interaction with her. Metro Babes has a set-up that is uncomplicated and easy to figures out. They don't play games with the pricing as info on that is clearly posted although pay-per-minute does get expensive quickly. Overall this is a site that does just fine in most areas but doesn't have any standout feature that can be pinpointed.
