Just because Steam is the "coca cola" long sleeve of the PC gaming world does not mean everyone wants to wear that. Consider me one of the folks who wears the "ocean pacific" T-shirt instead. As a heavy 360 gamer, GFWL works better for me because what I have done on that console gets folded into what I do on the PC. You may not think that means something, but I meet more 360 players than I do any other system right now, and giving them another way to utilize the Gamercard they have does make people curious about the PC side - because most of THEM have a PC laying about.
Steam does not do that, and if you think Sony is going to even let that happen, guess again - Portal 2 PS3 might get cross platform, it might get auto updates and such, but past that? NO. Sony's got their own version of Steamworks already, they call it trophies and their store is PSN; Sony will NOT let Steamworks run unchecked on their own comparible "service" no matter what Gabe says.
