The Game: Penetrating the Secret Society of Pickup Artists    Compare

After reading this book, I was inspired. I thought I just learned all the right things to say to girls. I went out and made an idiot of myself, said a lot of stupid things to girls, looked like an idiot.

The Game is a fun read, but by no means is it a book to really learn your game from. Don't read it expecting to learn how to talk to girls. There is no learning structure. It is just a great, entertaining story.

It is kind of known as the book that everybody starts with. And that's fine. But after you read it, read some material that actually is meant to teach you how do to the stuff in the game, or other stuff.

I have to say I wasnt very impressed..He obviously loves himself to much and doesnt feel heard, he just waffles on about random crap. 16 pages about being stuck in border patrol in some random country, nothing to do with anythng.
He's got game..thats for sure, but he just gives examples, A sheet full of openers would have given his book an A+ rank..but its only a C as its vague.

The Game was not good because of any techniques it might have offered. Those techniques I had already become familiar with. The important factor of the book was the journey that Style had gone through. The journey as an AFC to a novice to a PUA and finally to mPUA. That Journey offered examples of those that were naturals and those that learned the game. It also showed the destructive pattern of those that had allowed the game to fully take over their lives. He mentions the addictive nature of the pickup, the history of the community and the advice of naturals to re-evaluate what was important in life.

the good- motivational. stories. LA life. Proof pick can be learned. the bad - don't expect to learn much here. It's like a non-fiction novel. Bottomline - Buy Revelation to learn. The best of this book is it's cover and it's stopped a paradagm shift activating a woman's thoughts.

THE GAME is a great story about the trials and tribulations that Neill Strauss (i.e Style) goes through in his attempt to overcome his shyness and incompetence when it comes to approaching and seducing women. It's great inspiration for all those guys that think they have it "too" tough. There are LOTS techniques and methods along with great sources for recommended reading and it is VERY entertaining.
