...other way around.
So the reason why PS3 owners will get the PC version of the game is because it is "SteamPlay" and once they link their PSN account to their Steam account it will just be there, but it won't work the other way around. This is kind of ticking me off now, I didn't mind when they said it was just a freebie to encourage cross platform, but now they are redefining (not yet officially or announced) what SteamPlay is. Before it just meant any game with SteamPlay could be accessed on with MAC or PC platform if you bought it on either, now it includes the consoles, but you have to buy it for the console. Either come up with a new term or clearly define what Steamplay is and that it is not always free.
