Edit: I remember once having problems using msc on Left 4 Dead 2 which forced me to used Freearc's built in wav compressor.

Compressed 4,778 files, 1,315,603,487 => 649,582,676 bytes. Ratio 49.38%
Compression time: cpu 69.56 sec/real 142.00 sec = 49%. Speed 9.26 mB/s

Ah cheers I'll give that a go, thankfully the archives are unpacked (as is required due to modding and fixing the titles numerous issues only being possible with unpacked archives) so this method should be viable, fingers crossed!
