So would that let Steam compete against Game Center only or the whole App Store? Not that we couldn't use competition there, but Apple won't let that happen voluntarily.

I definitely think they can compete against Game Center with this. I know I'd pick Steam over Game Center any day given that I game on my PC a lot. However, the App Store is a tricky one on iOS because of the restrictions Apple imposes. It's possible on Android. But on iOS maybe you'd have offers like get the promo code for the mobile version of the game via Humble Bundle or something? Not so sure.
