I've done the same with Thrones and am still struggling. There is a difference there but I'm blowing it up 4x larger than the native res.

In addition, RF10 made the Thrones 3gb when the original is just 2.5gb. RF20 made it 600mb.

I'll test em all out tomorrow anyway.

Just had a quick test myself. I must admit I'm quite shocked how well it looks at RF20 considering how much it reduces the file size. Was going to mention it set to RF10 - I ended up with a bigger file than the source, and yes, you're right - I can't really see a difference.

Thanks for the heads up on Handbrake as well. Hadn't heard of it before.

Doesn't seem like it. I have Uncharted 3 on the way, and will get Wipeout through the 3G deal. So I think I'll then just get Super Stardust w/ DLC combo, Escape Plan and Motorstorm RC. I got a £20 PSN voucher on my account so that should cover most of it.

From the comments (A reply from the official dude)
Yes, that is correct. The Store will be live by midnight tonight and I’ll let you know as soon as it is.
 
Well I went with Fifa, I know you can go head to head with friends but can you play it online against randoms?

I'm pretty sure you can yes.

Someone I follow on twitter was playing in the US against a friend in Japan while voice chatting with him and another guy playing Wipeout 2048. Everything worked perfectly. Really looking forward to Tomorrow!

Where are you based? Seeing GB/GO on the box suggests Canada or France to me.

Lucky sod!

.

Yes you can. If they are cartridges then you can play them on ANY region PSN account however note that DLC may not work as it will likly be tied to the region the game is from. If the game is a download then you can play any region on any Vita but you have to use a PSN account for that region. EG, if you want to play Japanese games you need to use a Japanese PSN account.

Just had a quick test myself. I must admit I'm quite shocked how well it looks at RF20 considering how much it reduces the file size. Was going to mention it set to RF10 - I ended up with a bigger file than the source, and yes, you're right - I can't really see a difference.

Nice to see it's not me being blind :P I work in TV so I am typically quite sensitive to video quality but these were such small differences even when doubled in size that I think it'll be identical on that small screen.

And Handbrake is great. If you are ripping your DVDs for example just point it at the DVD or at the folder you ripped the Vobs to and it'll find the episodes/films and you just select the one you want to do and add it to the queue. I've left it doing 60+ episodes over night before now!

Thanks for posting, I'll add to the OP :) Would have liked more off but at the end of the day, no other platform offers discounts of RRPs on digital games launch day currently so they are at least getting that right. It'll all depend on the game for me as to whether I go digital or not.

meh so not any cheaper than the highstreet then?

That's how Sony always treat the EU.

Why offer discounts when we will lap it up regardless.

Erm...its the same on every SCE region. The discount is 10%. As I said above, no other digital platform offers any day 1 discounts from RRP at all (see PS3 games as just one example) so any discount is better than nothing.

Digital sales are still being held back by retail. Without retail platform holders can't sell the hardware on the scale they need to. If they undercut they'll just refuse to sell. Until someone breaks that stranglehold I don't see anything changing.

Oddly Fifa is full price in both the EU and the US. EA have some stones for sure.

No idea, have you got the downloader program? No access to your PS3?

Wasn't aware of a downloader program. I don't currently have access to my PS3.

Not an issue really, just wanted to load the points up ready for the Vita (On holiday for 3 weeks now so will have to wait) and wanted to make sure the points would add ok (never trust them).
