Kanon [PC game] - Video Review

My video review of Key's eldest visual novel title, Kanon. Enjoy!
For those unaware, you need a copy of the Japanese version of the Kanon PC game to play the English translation. After installing the game, you need the patch you can find here:
radicalr.pestermom.com/vn.html
You can find Kanon for sale at places like www.paletweb.com/ on the web.

    Awesome review dude. Havent played kanon yet but i've played other KEY titles such as Clannad and ONE and they're really great. how long did it take to finish the game Zwei? Well since u just tackled on a KEY game, hows about the other juggernaut Type-Moon. Fate Stay Night is phenomenal, and its about 5 years old now.

    I just finished the 2006 version anime and looked for some reviews. It's a good review, as you don't go into spoilers but give a quick shot of what Kanon is about. Just thinking about Makoto makes me sad as I really loved her.

    Jesus Christ I only just got this damn relic up and running, it took 6 damn hours and it’s still not perfect. The last 20 years have not been kind to this game and modern hardware has evolved so far that trying to make a museumpiece like this run is a nightmare. The actual installation wasn’t too hard, I just needed a virtual machine and a copy of XP I extracted from a 16 year old laptop of mine, but the lack of tutorials made this so much harder, every set of installation/patching/modification instructions I found were either incomplete, Japanese, or were filled with broken links that prevented me from finding all the files I needed.

    The last time I played this visual novel was on Windows 7, and I didn't have any problems installing it then. But if you think Kanon is bad, try installing the original version of Sayonara wo Oshiete, that was >.>

    Oy, I couldn't really give you a playtime estimate. I didn't keep track of that at all. While it's definitely not as long as say Fate/Stay Night, it's still a sizable title with plenty of substance. That said, I do plan to review Fate sometime in the future but I've got a couple of other video ideas I want to knock out first. Thanks for the feedback. =)
