There's no difference between the region releases. The only difference so far seen (for reasons that escape us all) is some extra shizzle in the PS3 release.

Games release on Fridays in the UK, like DVDs/BRs do on Mondays. I can only assume that the US is a little more flexible. And honestly, if RDR released on Tuesday, I'd be fired by Saturday, so I for one am thankful for the Friday release.
