Are you guys really sure about that? I know the box says DX9, but is SH4 worse than SH3? Is it a step backwards? Does DX10 and DX11 throw out features from DX9, so things don't work with them?

SH3's box says DX9 or higher. SH4's doesn't, but that is the way it usually works. Yes, older DOS games won't run on newer machines and need DosBox, but newer versions of DX should run SH4 just fine.
