In these hard economic times offline play may be what the budget calls for.

mmm, I dunno.

Think about it...as long as the weekly or monthly cost is not much more than going to a movie, online play offers ALOT more entertainment time with others if people are out of work say.

There are successful pure offline games where online is not needed. There are successful pure online games where offline is not needed. I'd say offline takes more programming and/or openness to modding -- Lowengrin's independent dynamic campaign modding has saved FB for many of Oleg's offline play customers. Online requires the internet connection, and of course offers the potential of human player vs blue side player ( ).

S~ Lexx,
Just to say it, I preferred online flying. To me, offline flying has it's time and place, but there's nothing like going up against other breathers online. Can't recall too many bad experiences online; certainly nothing to make me want to give it up. Heck I was flying with the D13_TH while on dialup! Great bunch, btw. One day when I (finally) get a new system I will return to online aerial combat, You betcha!
