There is no "official" single player campaign, but the game is built to be mostly playable solo. You'll still run into all the other people on your phase of the server and there will be content you won't be able to accomplish, but you can level entirely alone if you want. There are even solo quests in Cyrodil, so you can work alone to further your faction in the PvP zone - I imagine you'll still be free to gank, however. So to clarify the partial answer I made to one of your questions, you cannot make your own server. It is one giant mega-server, you will be phased into sections of the server with people you answered similarly to in the initial questionare and/or with your guild and groups when you are in one of those.

As for the cross-platform stuff, I'd say the first thing we need to know is just how viable will the gamepad controller interface be. We're most likely looking at next-gen consoles if it does just for the fact that Zenimax will want to people to be playing over the next several years, and this console generation is coming to an end (the large majority of gamers sell off or trade in their current console), but they might just do a double release as we've seen with some Playstation games in the past that released on the early or late edge of a cycle. The final point I'd like to make in this is that there may not be enough MMORPG players on consoles to warrant doing this if it isn't "one server to rule them all", so to speak. Defiance has the luxury of being an MMO-Shooter above all else. It has some RPG elements, but it's ultimately just a shooter with some classing and happens to be online only.
