I know that it does not have the same picture quality as the Region A, but whether it is better or worse may depend on your personal preferences.

The US Region A version was scrubbed of grain, and lost some detail as a result -- reviewers describe it as "overly smooth". The UK Region B version did not remove the grain, so there is also a bit more detail.

I saw screenshot comparisons somewhere but I can't seem to find them. I do not know about the rest of the package.
