Again Im not entirely sure, and its not confirmed, it looks like the infrastructure might be build into the game, if it was fully implemented I think either MS or Valve would be touting its merits.
Something to watch out for though

There's no need to be an ass. I'm all for PC-console interplayability. Just think of all the easy kills when you're a zombie.

Well that's all fine and dandy until they pull some shit like Shadowrun and gimp the ever loving fuck out of PC players to bring us down to their level.

Quote:Shadowrun is the flagship title for the Games for Windows - LIVE service that allows Windows Vista PC users to be fully integrated into Xbox Live. Due to this integration, FASA has decided to make several changes to try and create a more balanced competition between the Xbox 360 and PC versions.
  * Because of the lack of 'pixel-accuracy' with the Xbox 360 analog thumbstick, the designers have included an aim-assisting technology, which basically interpolates the player's movement and causes the reticle to stay over an enemy player like a weak magnet. In addition, FASA has implemented a feature which causes the crosshair to expand during quick movements, thus lowering the player's accuracy, making it impossible to quickly turn and maintain accuracy, reducing the potential advantage of playing with a mouse.[6][7] PC players, who have a more sensitive control scheme, are able to turn significantly faster than their controller-using counterparts and would have gained an unfair advantage.
  * The PC version requires a Games for Windows - LIVE account to play online against other PC players. .[8]
  * The PC version requires mandatory online or telephone product activation before allowing play.[9]
  * According to a license shown after installation of version 1.0.0.0 of the software, the PC version of the game is only licensed for use on one computer, although it may be uninstalled and reinstalled an unlimited number of times, and the license may be transferred at least once by using telephone activation for the convenience of the user.
  * The Xbox 360 version of Shadowrun does not require activation, and the license to play can be transferred by switching the game disc into another console. However, once activation is complete the PC version of Shadowrun does not require a disc to play. The Xbox 360 version requires the software disc to be in the console's optical drive at all times while gaming.
