...I'm only gonna use arabic numerals to refer to the invidual entries in the FF series, rather than mixing roman and arabic as it's just getting confusing.
Which do you prefer to use?

If I'm in a rush or in a lazy mood, I use the Arabic numerals. Otherwise, I like using the Roman numerals. For some reason, to me it makes the Final Fantasy game seem more prestigious than another sequel game with an Arabic numeral in its title :p
I'm always going to use Roman numerals, Arabic is for n00bs.
Arabic FTW!
Roman FTW * 2 !!
I go with what's on the game cover. And usually, that's Roman, so that is what is correct.
The correct way.

Well, I go for roman numerals since that is what is on the case. Lol
And, a lot of games now seem to have roman numerals on the sequels. Guitar Heroes for example.
I prefer Arabic on the eighth day of the week

It all depends on my laziness.
Roman, most of the time. If I use Arabic, it's either because I'm really tired or writing to someone I know doesn't have a clue about Roman numerals.
ff1 ff2 ff3 ff4 ff5 ff6 ff7 ffviii ffix ffx ffx-2 ff11 ff12
Roman here as well.
Final Fantasy Wan: The Plague
Final Fantasy Tu: Goodbye Moon
Final Fantasy Thrie: Number 3
Final Fantasy Phor: The Thief
Final Fantasy Vyve: Are We Alive?
Final Fantasy Zyx: Zhel Yen Xuan
Final Fantasy Zephen: Whatever That Means
Final Fantasy Ate: Devour...
Final Fantasy Nein: No! Not Another One!
Final Fantasy Ten: Number 10
Final Fantasy Tentu: Sure, Why Not
Final Fantasy Elven: Ooooh, Elves
Final Fantasy Tuelve: Moon Over Elves
Final Fantasy Thurtien: Yeah
Regular numbers are fine...if you're a simpleton. :smash:
I used to use the Roman numerals for full-writes (Final Fantasy VII, for example) and the Arabic numerals for shorthand (FF7, for example), but nowadays I just use the Roman numerals. FFX was shorter to type than FF10, and FFX-2 looks a lot better than FF10-2, so I decided to use Roman numerals for all the FF games for the sake of consistency. :)
I use the roman numerals most of the time, but sometimes I will just use numbers instead.
Pretty much, yeah.Quote:

The last one you've got in your little poll there sure is funny 'n all, except since you're stating it as a title, it's also the proper way to do it.
I tend to use Roman numerals most of the time, but sometimes I think that lots of Roman numerals make my posts a bit laborious to read so I'll mix it up a bit sometimes. Outside of long posts, I tend to nearly always use Roman numerals because they're used on the case and I like them.
Roman numerals. I really don't like putting Arabic numerals in my typing, and, when I do, I usually wind up typing them out. Yeah, I know, I'm screwy.
The one exception is FFX-2, which I will use an Arabic numeral for.
Roman. It's how I'm used to seeing it written.
