Should the following should be in the concern/caveat list?
Of course, it might be too late for those of us who went to the gamesas site first and (logically?) used their Crysis 1 gamesas account to redeem the DLC code...

QUESTION
How do I redeem my Crysis 2 Limited Edition DLC Code?
ANSWER
A separate gamesas Account is required to access any online features, including multiplayer content, the redemption of Limited Edition codes, DLC, etc.
While gamesas accounts use IGN technology, they do not use or require a standard GameSpy ID. You should not attempt to access online content with your GameSpy ID.
You may create your gamesas account through the game, or by logging in to gamesas.com.
Logging in for the first time via the game will create a completely new login.
If users already have a gamesas login, they may use that to login.
Otherwise, they will be prompted to create an account.
To redeem your bonus content code from within a PC game:
Select "Multiplayer" from the Crysis 2 main menu.
If you have not logged in before, you will need to create a gamesas account. Enter your nickname, password, and email when requested.
In the Crysis 2 multiplayer menu, select the "My Crysis" option.
Select "Redeem Code". This will exit the game and open gamesas in a browser window.
Login using your gamesas details.
Enter the content code in the text box and click "Redeem Code".
Run the game and it will automatically detect that your bonus content is available.
