I don't think body sliders are a PS3 limitation. I think it's more of a "gear creation limitation." The more variety you allow players on their characters, the more "hooks" you need to apply to your gear to ensure there's no clipping. Wildstar has a fantastic character creation, very detailed. It also resulted in a certain pair of pants on a certain of my characters to look like a thong, as my ass cheeks clipped through them just right. It was amusing, but quite embarrassing too! The game you mentioned is not a game that comes with lots of variety of gear. They all wear a certain outfit and don't change. So of course you can have more customization.

I'm not excusing SE. Their character creation is very archaic. There needs to be way more face options, and more variety in hair styles (no race should be subjected to 4 identical hair styles with different color barrettes like I mentioned above), and different builds. I don't necessarily think every inch of my body should have a slider, but I do think that not EVERY Elezen should have identical bodies with only different size boobs.
