They'll blame piracy on PC and the evil PC pirates if the game fails to sell, even if it has always-online DRM. Calling it now.

Well, Diablo hasn't been pirated yet but I believe some group did release a copy of Battlefield 3 for "offline single play".

Actually it has been for quite a while through the use of a server emulator that actually updates with the real Blizzard server so anything that happens at Blizz's server side the pirate emulated server also gets it. Hence the always online DRM has also failed at preventing piracy or even an offline SP experience.
