PopCap adds Steam achievements to Plants vs. Zombies photo

This afternoon, PopCap Games updated their Steam version of Plants vs. Zombies with twelve achievements. The Steam Achievements aren’t exactly easy to obtain -- many will require deep concentration (reach 20 flags in Survival Endless) and the dismissal of all things social (re: Grow the Tree of Wisdom to 100 feet.)

Here’s the full list:

Home Lawn Security: Complete adventure mode.
Morticulturalist: Collect all 49 plants.
Towering Wisdom: Grow the Tree of Wisdom to 100 feet.
Nobel Peas Prize: Get the golden sunflower trophy.
Better Off Dead: Get to a streak of 10 in I,Zombie Endless.
China Shop: Get to a streak of 15 in Vasebreaker Endless.
Immortal: Get to 20 flags in Survival Endless.
Cryptozombologist: Discover the top secret zombie.
Walk This Way: Hypnotize the lead dancer zombie.
Spudow!: Blow up a zombie using a potato mine.
Explodonator: Blow up 10 zombies with a single cherry bomb.
Ask Me About Mustache Mode: Enable Mustache Mode.

Unfortunately, I believe I've only earned one of these Achievements. How many have you guys unlocked?

I've only got the three easiest to get. The rest I deem impossible.

I've been offline all weekend, but were I on, I would have earned Home Lawn Security, Morticulturist, Nobel Peas Prize, Cryptozombologist (I think), Walk This Way, Spudow!, and maybe Explodonator.

Can anyone tell me if there's a way to get Steam achievements if I bought game somewhere else, or it HAS to be bought over Steam?
