Has there ever been an explanation fro EA as to why they use a 70 player roster size instead of the 85 roster limit.

I think it has something to do with space. If you think about it adding 15 extra players to each team is quiet a lot. 15x123=1845. Adding 1,845 extra players takes a lot of time and uses a lot of memory disc space.

Maybe on the Next-Next Gen Console!

I don't think that's entirely true. It's usually art/media that takes up most of the space, and since all players have generic art, I think that extra players are no more than database entries.

It probably has more to do with programming and priorities.

I may have to eat crow on my whole 360 coming out before PS3, looks like they have 8 left and may release today. Either way: Dynasties in both PS3 and 360 will begin today/tomorrow

EASports already has an official response to this. They wanted both the PS3 and the xbox to have identical games, which includes roster size. According to them, the PS3 could handle the additonal 15 roster spots per team but the xbox couldn't, for some reason. So they decided to make no change just for the PS3 version.

Fifteen spots multiplied by 124(?) 1A teams is more than an additional 1800 roster spots. There was a rep from EA on the Cornhusker board about 30 days ago.

Can someone explain what sliders are that are being "adjusted"? Thanks!
