If you select 'Properties' on the .exe, it tells you that it is version 1.4.0.1

So....yeah, we are good to go.

Note that, as noted elsewhere, you don't even NEED Steam running to play it. You can run it from the .exe directly - which, of course, allows for Sh3Commander (et al) usage.

So just confirming . . . if I buy SH3 from Steam, I can still back it up on a DVD, but it doesn't need a dvd or Steam running? (I assume that it will need to STEAM at first to register it). This is good. Real good.
