As mentioned in my post, the possibility that DCUO for PS3 subscription is handled through PSN could be that the infrastructure is relying on PSN. And seeing that SOE developed this title, and it is not cross-platform, the PS3 version is independent from the PC counterpart.

Where as FFXIV is shared infrastructure on SE's own hosting. PS3 is merely a gateway to get on to SE's authentication interface (if you not noticing, the login part is WWW interface). Once authenticated, the native PS3 game client is launched. However the server where the game client communicate to has nothing to do with PSN. And because of this very reason, it is why FFXIV is not on Xbox360 and Xbox One due to Microsoft's strict requirement to have Xbox Live service.
