343 (Re)looking into PC Gaming?

Excuse my tinfoil hat, but don't you find it odd that a Xbox based website has an option that you can log in, via Steam?

 

Unless they're planning something..

 

I understand Facebook and Twitter, but doing this is like Microsoft allowing you to sign in with your PSN or Nintendo ID.

Steam offers a wide variety or games, not just proprietary ones. Steam should be looked at as more of a Facebook gaming platform than a standalone company. Microsoft is wise to allow this feature since a lot of gamers who buy their Windows Games over Steam, may not even navigate to the MS site otherwise. Although, we did hear quite a lot about PC gaming in the form of Halo a couple years ago. Corrine Yu whom was or may very well still be, "The Principal Engine Architect" for halo, had contacted us over on Modacity about what we have done for Halo 1 PC.

 

I would not be surprised to see something coming soon about a possible port of an older title, or maybe even a current one. 343 did say they have no plans to support any title beyond Reach...leaving 3 and ODST in the wind I'm afraid.

 

***edit*** after re-reading this, and looking at the shoutbox, I think you meant to say that this site allows Steam Log-in. In which case is just a good practice by Twam, as this site is not controlled or sponsored monitarily by 343 or Microsoft.
