    Of course most of us have a couple of favorites from each side of the coin, but if you absolutely had to choose - do you prefer the 2D or 3D Final Fantasy games overall?

    I'd choose 3D because most of the older ones have been updated to be 3D

    But also because I think those ones are, overall, my favorites.

    Not even a struggle for me. All of the FF games I love are 3D ones, and even the version of FFIV I love is for Gameboy Advance!

    I would have to go with 3D, and this applies to any series. I like a good 2D game if I feel like going old-school, but a 3D world feels more immersive. And that's one of my favourite aspects of a game: the world. If it's fun to traverse through and interact with in 3D glory, then I'm sold!

    I adore Final Fantasy I - VI but I just prefer the stories and worlds presented in VII onwards. I have some bones to pick post X but those four are solid enjoyment for myself. Can't let that FFVIII go!

    Other. Because I feel the PSX entries with pre-rendered backgrounds had inordinately better designed field/dungeon maps than anything that has been produced with full 3D modelling.

    I prefer my games to be 3D objects projected onto a 2d world, completely deformed by the lack of one of their dimensions
