Online-only is basically confirmed at this point.
So I'll pass, regardless of the price.
There are WAY too many sources and rumors and hints for Durango to not have online-only at this point.
Denying Microsoft doesn't have something in the works is like denying there isn't a Durango---Microsoft is betting on online-only to combat piracy, used game sales, to increase ad revenue and Xbox Live Gold sales, to make major publishers more happy, and to align themselves with the wishes of major developers towards merging singleplayer + multiplayer in games.
For them, the move may be anti-consumer, but it's "the logical next step" in the evolution of the gaming industry.
