When I researched what an online gaming console involves this is what I found:
Online console gaming involves connecting a console to a network over the Internet for services. Through this connection, it provides users the ability to play games with other users online, in addition to other online services.
The three most common networks now are Microsoft's Xbox Live, Sony's PlayStation Network, and Nintendo's Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection and Nintendo Network. These networks feature cross platform capabilities which allows users to use a single account. However, the services provided by both are still limited to the console connected (e.g. an Xbox 360 cannot download an Xbox One game).
Additional services provided by these networks include the capability of buying additional games, online chatting, downloadable content, and game demos.

You can purchase games online and play them with friends online you don't have to purchase the disc to be able to play the game long as you have the software that runs on that game so you are able to play on it.
