What if you're like most people who have internet that is good but is prone to occasional outages? nothing more frustrating than being in the middle of an epic killstreak and having the internet flicker. what if you were saving your game, or in the midle of a quest and hadn't saved and your internet flickered? what if you're at, say, a cottege or something and brought your console BECAUSE there was no internet?

Do you really think the console quits all running processes when it's lost connection to the net? It will wait for reconnecting for sure and double check to see what has changed since your last login (maybe you're not allowed to switch games). That way you only need a connection when starting a game and it can lose it without any effect unless you are offline for hours.
Whatever a cottege is; if you mean college, who's not able to get a net connection there for like a few cents a day? Hell, you can simply connect it to any device that is able to establish a connection, phone, webstick or whatever which doesn't even have to cost anything. I don't believe there is any college out there in the markets MS is aiming for that doesn't have net for the students.

i think he meant Cottage... a type of rural house... usually in small ville with low broadband coverage...
IMO it will only need net to register the game... its unnecessary to be always on to prevent piracy...
