I think the expectation is that Minerva's Den will come to Steam.

Bioshock 1 and 2 are both being converted to Steamworks and the DLC will appear on Steam.

Just got a 3.3GB patch for Bioshock 2.

MD seems to be included if you already owned BS2, else it's $5/5€ at 50% off right now.

EDIT: Seems they also added full controller support, and made it so BS2 retail keys of unlocks Minerva's Den.

great news...hopefully all other GFWL games will make the switch sooner rather then wait till summer of 2014 (talking to you Dark Souls and Fallout 3)
