There's always a chance your internet connection craps out/you don't have online access somewhere. It's a legitimate complaint, I'd say.
I'm really struggling to see it. In the last eight years (and I was a pretty LATE adopter to broadband), I don't think I've ever been in a scenario where I really wanted to play a PC game and my Internet was unavailable for longer than say, an hour or so.
