Which version should I play?

[Ilyena]

So I'm thinking of giving VI another go. I started it a while back but never finished it. I think I may have gotten as far as Zozo (or whatever it's called). There are at least three versions that I'm aware of: the SNES, PSX and GBA versions.

Any suggestions on which one I should play? Are they all similar enough where they won't make a difference? I have heard that the translations are slightly different in the different versions (I could be thinking of V here too).

Well if you want the 4 extra espers and a slightly more challenge go with the GBA version. Only reason I say slightly more challenge is I think they nerfed the vanish/x-zone trick which was an easy way to kill the 8 dragons in late game, either it no longer works or you don't get the xp/ap from it compared to the psx version. Some of the way the unique traits for the characters jobs were also changed and some of the relics combos I believe as well. So if you don't care about that and want to play as close to it as possible i'd go with the psx version.
