The limit is forced on SI.

Yes.

Limit is needed on console games because console manufacturers (Sony/Microsoft etc) want a specific end point to the game where it finishes.

Obviously the 30 season limit is implemented by SI based on data and memory etc but you can start another game in a different save slot once you have completed 30 seasons.

suppose you could also look at this from a realistic point of view... even if a someone (eg; a player) moved into a management at 35, its unlikely they'd still be managing 30 years on at the age of 65!!? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Someone like Aidy Boothroyd could complete that task.

Console titles have to be passed by the console manufacturer, this involves them repeatedly playing the title to 'completion' - obviously this implies that the game has an 'end' to it somewhere.

In prior surveys of our users very few reach 30 seasons in a single game so it seemed a reasonable cut-off point (and as has been mentioned is pretty realistic) ... we also do our best to make things interesting at the end by providing stats and a summary of your career etc.

At the end of the game you get some summary statistics of your career and also a small text indicating how your life went upon your retirement from football ...

If you did well expect something glamourous ... if you did, errr, less well then then expect to be managing a pub icon_biggrin.gif

(its done somewhat 'tongue in cheek' along the lines of the 'addiction ratings' in FM PC)
