Wing Commander Arena Launches!

Wing Commander Arena has been officially released in nine new countries! This isn't strictly limited to Arena - XBox Live has expanded to cover Russia, Poland, South Africa, Greece, Czech Republic, Hungary, Brazil, Colombia and Chile. Some of the movie and television related features are still limited by specific agreements, but the Live Arcade game catalog and online multiplayer features are all there. Prior to this, Wingnuts who lived in these regions had to engage in a sometimes-complicated method of creating a Live Gamertag and buying subscription time from other countries. Now players can sign up accounts with their own adress and payment info (even over the web), and they'll receive localized tech support. There's even an account migration process for people who circumnavigated the system before and want to clean up their profiles today. Have fun!
