Guards against piracy can't always be hidden behind socalled features. Always online would have been too restrictive for many people; tighter controls and DRM on current downloaded games on Xbox Market Place and PS Store haven't made them cheaper now.
Competition is the key to lower game prices. If MS and Sony allowed alternate shops to be available on the Xbox and PlayStation then companies would compete with deals and therefore games would be cheaper, the DRM would come with it to make sure you don't then pirate that copy of the game. Make downloading games more appealing and people would be fine with it but many would still like the option of a disc.
Hmm, pie.
