Portal 2 Steam Key for Xbox 360?
So I recently found out that Portal 2 steam edition has a lot more features including level editors and more. I looked online and it turns out that PS edition has a steam key to get on pc for free but I don't have a playstation, I have it on Xbox. I was wondering if there was any way to get a steam key if you have it on xbox 360? Please help.

Nope. Just buy the game during the upcoming Summer Sale that starts around June 22th.
Portal 2 is usually 90% off or similar.
You can get it for basically nothing.

I really don't want to pay anything again. There isn't any way?

They're 2 completely different platforms. No, there is no way.

There is no way. Only the PS3 version of the Orange Box included a free Steam key for the game.
If you want Portal 2 on PC you have to buy it on Steam. No way around it.

PS3 version got a free PC copy because Sony allowed integration of Steamworks and cross-platform coop. Microsoft didn't, so Valve didn't bother giving an extra most players wouldn't need anyway.

To be fair, the dark age of Microsoft being anti-gamer seem to be over. They've done quite a few positive decisions lately. I'm still a bit skeptical, but it seems they are making progress.
