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.
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?

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.
