Now obviously this would be a great thing for gamers and 3rd party publishers to be able to take advantage of for their multiplat games in the normal cross-play sense..  However, more than just cross-play though, we could be seeing a more meaningful Xbox API integration into Steam with the potential for more Xbox games to release on Steam in the future.  If MS and Steam work out a way in which the Xbox ecosystem can coincide with Steamworks for Xbox games, players could buy from either store and play with friends from either store while earning achievements ect in either ecosystem.

 

That would be pretty awesome.  Maybe MS really DOES want people to be on Xbox anywhere they are? :whew:
