Errr, this is with the assumption that the console requires online capabilities in order to function! The dial-up statement was to back up my point that not everybody has sufficient internet for this functionality. I did not state that those systems supported dial-up nor did I imply it. I'm not talking about the 360 or the PS3 at all, and this issue is not one that these consoles share, however to say it isn't out there is ignorant. Some new games are using this technique as does steam to a certain extent (if you don't have your password remembered in the steam client you cannot access anything).
I understand you are a MS fan and that is certainly fine, however covering your head to the possibility of these rumors being true doesn't make the issue go away. As I said before, the only way we will know is once the console is actually released.
Gotta figure out how to set these up lol.
