It is 3D but it is 3rd person instead of first like the prime series. It will most likely play like a Ninja Gaiden game or a God of War game. Those are 3D as well. If it were 2D it would be like a side scroller like the original metroid or mario bros. game. In this game you can move not only side to side, but toward or away from the screen and I'm guessing the camera will also move.

I was typing at the same time as you.  But yeah there probably are some side scrolling levels but it is still a 3D game. Think Mario Galaxy. It was a 3D game with side scrolling levels blended seamlessly in, but the environments were still 3D. Not to mention it definitely appears that the vast majority of the game is 3D.

I know. My first post wasn't directed at you but looked like it since we were typing at the same time. It appeared to me that the guy who said 2D actually meant 3rd person. I may have been assuming too much, but I just sort of felt like that was what he actually meant.
