  Currently very into visual novels
  
  So far have played Tsukihime, will start on Planetarian soon. I am also downloading Wind, A Breath of Heart. I have also watched the anime for Kanon and am interested to play the game, but unfortunately the English patch for it is not available yet
  
  There are also some doujin visual novels distributed for free which can be found
  here. I highly recommend Narcissu (nice graphics, but super depressing storyline) and also Collage (I love the way the dialogues are phrased in this one, the story has a lot of potential in itself, love the music, but too bad it is rather short and it only has one ending nia).
  
  Anyone else who is into reading visual novel here? I am looking for recommedation, so let me know if you have come across any interesting one, esp those with English translation

  One of the links is in my first post...But it is mostly for Doujin games...But that site also provide links for translation for commercial games...
  
  Another place is HongFire ->Games Forum
  
  There you can find Clannad, but the translation is not done yet, so gotta wait a bit. Can also find others such as Planetarian (got this, but havent played it yet), Tsukihime (recommended if you like extensive storylines) and Tokimeki Memorial (but cannot play on PC plus no translation )

  I dun think they release an english translation for Kanon They said they were waiting for Key to approve it but they never did so..
  
  I would advise anyone to go play Tsukihime if you havent done so, so far the storyline is one of the tightest plot ever (as in, it actually makes sense and connects all the different arcs together)...I havent played Kanon or Air but I have watched the anime, and I have to say Air was really disappointing for me, it has good music and all that, but I can't really understand the story so it wasn't even close to touching for me
  
  Now looking forward to watch Clannad There isn't any complete english translation for that yet right?

  yup..there isnt...but there are chinese translation for them already...the direct download site has it...
