As long as it doesn't come at the expense of a good campaign, then who cares if there's an arguably un-necessary online component?
It's obvious why companies do it...make up for a short campaign, extra stuff to advertise/put on the box, extra incentive to buy the game......Plus this can help NEW game sales, since they can use an online pass system to prevent used sales i.e. if the game has no online component then they can't put any good system im place to stop USED sales.
