No way :D Global Play ftw :D

Edit: I guess global play isn't really live yet. I knew there was a regions button, but it still doesn't work T_T

I've been playing on different regions for the past two or so months already, but cool they finally released it for everyone without having to do additional stuff. Also GJ doing the 'no more downloading while playing game' stuff.

For those who weren't aware, Global Play has already been live for a couple months - you just had to download the regions.xml file. But good now that everyone knows about it.
