Chat Review

Overall Rating

Its less than '£1 in price and there are lots of really, really easy puzzles with large cash prizes

It is utter trash. The stories are reported in a sensationalist manner (as most of them are real life, it would be impossible to tell, it is only when they cover a reasonably famous story that has appeared on the news such as American wrestler Chris Benoit - they ignored a large number of facts in this story)

This magazine is utter rubbish. Their target audience ranges from the completely brain dead to the terrifyingly unintelligent (just look at the difficulty ratings for the puzzles) It offers nothing new (as there are a huge number of magazines just like chat out at any one time) and it takes great pleasure in bringing to you the most ridiculous, gorey and generally disgusting stories from all over the world. In addition to these, it also boasts a psychic dog, a very unlikeable editor, a page full of "funny" things reader's husbands have said and lots of pictures of other people's snotty, horrible children.

Despite my negativity, I still feel compelled to buy the damn thing every single week, as do many of my intelligent female friends.

For this, I truly hate myself.
