    Looks like the game is finally up on Steam, just wondering if anyone knew if it had achievements?

    This is a dumb question but I've not used steam much, is the price shown on steam for the whole series? I don't fancy spending £15 for one episode after all.

    If it has achievements they're not up at least. Looking at the store page now.

    That's a shame, although it wont stop me from getting this. I was sold after that quick look was so good.

    Aw, I pre-ordered it directly from Telltale. Oh well, guess it's all the same anyway.

    @BD_Mr_Bubbles: Even thought Poker Night has achievements, it doesn't say so on its page in the Steam storefront. Weird.

    The Quick Look completely sold me on the game as well, looks like a ton of fun. I'm getting ready to boot it up right now..And Yes, Poker Night does have achievements. So far that looks like the exception, for some reason I feel like Sam & Max do as well but I'm not sure.  
     
    FYI Everything on TellTale's site is 50% off BUT Back to the Future... GREAT DEAL!

    The episodes go up earlier on the Telltale site, plus you can get a boxed DVD version once all the episodes are out, loaded with special features. 
    It's one case where I wouldn't bother with Stream, the developers themselves give a much better deal.

    when i saw the price i was a bit shocked, but I assume that's for all 5 eps, and as they come out, you can just download them? If the xmas sale wasnt going on I would buy it, but since it is, ill wait until all 5 eps are out to play as 1 game

    @dexterslu: If the game has achievements, it will tell you on the page for the game....right hand side about 1/2 down.  
     
    Update: 
    The game does not include Steam achievements.

    After watching the quicklook I want this, but I'll wait to see if they do some steam sale discount or something.

    Its very tempting but I know that there will be a real discount on it soon given its popularity, so waiting is probably the smart (but not fun) thing to do.

    You'd think so, but Poker Night at the Inventory doesn't say it has achievements. It does. So for Telltale's games, I really don't think you can rely on that.

    That and I'm sure Steam will have some crazy promotion like they did with Tales from Monkey Island and buy the whole series for a dollar or whatever.

    Do you have to buy it again or will they just ship it to you at no extra charge?
