As I understood it, you had to register AND have a copy of the original Crackdown. Your way, however, does sound like it makes sense.
My friend and I played Gears the entire weekend, and it was an absolute BLAST. We played a lot of 2v2 games (me and him versus two other people) and our gameplan was perfect. I'd rush the team while he ran for the sniper. I would make first contact, chainsaw the first person, dive back, and my friend would snipe the other in the face as he chased after me.
