You seem blind to the popularity of Zynga and other makers of 'shitty' games. Steam has plenty of what you would call real games. G+ is wise to court the popular games first.

I think the issue isn't about Zynga, but more about "Why should I bother going from Facebook to Google+ when they both have the same games?"

It would be like buying a PS3 to play Call of Duty, when you already own an Xbox 360.

Xbox and Playstation have the same kind of games, and Call of Duty is of course on both. Consumers have expectations of what a social game is. Why not offer them the choice of social network to play them on?
