Have the decency to quote me at least. Of course everything from VG Leaks is received....ALL rumors are received. If they meant that it was officially the Xbox Roadmap, they would have said so (like that leaked internal document that was absolutely a roadmap) and roadmaps can change by the way. Thurrott's information is more recent and is the source of the OP.
I posted that picture (ONCE) because you said the data was in the thread, I browsed the thread, found that as the only thing mentioning Thurrott's tweets and so there you have it. I went ahead and looked through the entire conversation regarding the OP, which you can find here: Here Comes the Next Xbox http://t.co/nthflCQ6At
He deflects ALL questions about the system with things like "Wait until the 21st please" and "Really tired of this topic." I also took the time to look through all of the rest of his tweets since he posted the "Here comes the next Xbox" blog post and he even negates the VG Leaks rumor with this tweet, but I guess you didn't see it: @BuldozerX That's not what I heard.
He doesn't know exact specifics of how the always online requirement will work, but he knows it does require it. Otherwise, he wouldn't have put it in his blog post coming from his sources.
I absolutely do not want it to require online and I have an internet connection that is strong enough that it wouldn't matter. I am simply saying that his sources within Microsoft have more recent info, have told him that it does in fact require and internet connection to use, and that they are very reliable. VG Leaks is reliable as well, but their information is older and we have 0 clue where their sources came from. VG Leaks has been wrong in the past about rumors you know.
As for the developer comments.....a developer at Crytek was the first to break the codename Durango. Kotaku and other sources are developers, they are not getting information from internal engineers at MS. Developers have been given dev kits that are housed in big black cases, and the controllers have a sort of "fingerprint" of black tape on them, so if they posted pictures, MS would know who they are by the design. The developer who released photos of the SDK running and put his dev kit online at eBay was raided by the feds. Developers are leaking things.
