You most likely bought v1.4 from Steam and definitely bought 1.5 from Amazon. Two different games entirely, and it brings up a great point.

Suppose you want to buy a game but want all the advantages of Steam: portability and ability to redownload at any time. When Amazon is cheaper, buy the game there. You can then import it into Steam to have the best of both worlds. My SH4 still stays outside Steam because I only play in in one place.

When I did that with Unreal Tournament III it turned an unstable game into a much more stable and playable game. And I can visit your house, download and play it there!
