Default Hector: Badge of Carnage on Steam

So, I just checked Steam, and to my utter surprise found that not only are the three episodes of Hector now available on Steam, but they're also on offer.

The weird thing is that Episode 2 of Hector doesn't seem to be out on Telltale's own site. Or is that just me?

Anyway. Anyone else excited? 'cause I am! Loved that first episode.

Only 2 of the episodes are available (if I read the page correctly)

It's just the first two episodes that are available right now, but purchasing the season (or season upgrade, if you already own episode 1) gets you all 3 episodes - the two currently available, then the third when it comes out.

It's available in the Telltale store now, but they haven't updated the blog yet.

Steam does say Episode 3 is out Sept 22nd, though.

Is there any reason to buy through TTG? DVDs?

Giving TTG all of your moneys without Valve taking a cut?

Then again, Valve is awesome too, and it's fun giving them moneys as well...

Conundrum!

EDIT: Nevermind, I forgot that this was a Straandlooper joint.

Many of their community-type people are pressing the flesh at PAX this weekend, but you'd hope the captive audience of blog and newsletter readers don't get forgotten!

I haven't seen anything about a free disc for this one. Since Telltale is not the main developer (that's Straandlooper), I wouldn't be surprised if they can't justify a free disc for Telltale store customers this time around. Would be happy to be proved wrong though.

Yeah, worded that slightly awkwardly. In my defence, I was in a rush to get to work and just thought people should know they can get their Hector fix ASAP.

The season upgrade is only $10, so if, like me, you bought Episode 1 during the 75% off sale earlier this year, it's actually cheaper for all three parts. I'd also guess they'll do a DVD of them at some point as well, but there's been no actual mention of it so far.

EDIT: Forgot Telltale aren't developing this one. Thanks for reminding me puzzlebox. Could be there's no DVD this time, which'd be a shame, but understandable.
