Castrum - Well it seems the GFWL curse is still with us, as Square/Eidos have signed a deal with Microsoft to include their draconian, buggy DRM service with every copy of Arkham City sold on PC. As for DLC, that may be an issue, given Steam's stance on forcing developers to sell DLC through Steam.
The only good thing that can come from this is that PC gamers can get Live Achievements instead of Steam Achievements, though that's a dubious benefit at best.
