Gamertag, a word that means alot in the gaming world. For many of us it means an identity. Whether your on Xbox Live, the Playstation Network, etc. it is who we as gamers are. It can be your name, favorite character, hero, or what have you. It can be a very hard decision and you may go through many different titles until you settle on the one that fits you.
It's important in life to maintain a broad palette when it comes to culture and the arts. Hideo Kojima agrees, as he continues to use video games like Death Stranding to introduce people to music and other elements they might not otherwise discover.
Mojang has partnered with Merlin Entertainments to build the world's first Minecraft theme park in the UK.
A three-episode live-action adaptation of the first two Yakuza video games will debut Tuesday, March 17 exclusively IGN. Each episode is about an hour long and will stream on IGN.com and IGN’s YouTube channel.
Sometimes gamertags are serious, funny, or even irrelevant. It is interesting to hear why certain gamers chose their alter ego names. Sometimes people just try to see how many X and O's they can fit it.
I don't like much 1337 5|*34|< Gamertags, the same goes for awfully unoriginal game character name such as "Cloud", "Squall", "Sephiroth" or "Snake", because people love to be identified to a character identity and the darker he is the best it is for them. As a result, you have tons of "CloudFF7 157982" or "XoX Master Chief 247 oXo", etc...
I like short and catchy gamertags. On PSN, I chose Nyoro-n because I used to love The Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi, where a character, Tsuruya, also says "nyoro~" at the end of her sentences. The character has been caricatured Utsura Uraraka where the parodied character, called Churuya, always says "nyoro~n" at the end of her sentences.

For my XBL Gamertag, it used to be "Raziev" as a contraction of "Resident" and "Evil" (because I was playing Resident Evil 5 at this time) then modified to look like a russian name (and inspired by Raziel from Legacy of Kain series). I changed it to "Beau Masque", which means in French "Pretty Mask". It's a reference to a song I love, composed by Lonah: "Je te connais beau masque" (in English: "I know you pretty mask").

And Sangria because I hate sangria (yes, I do hate it).
Gamertags express who you are, unless you are Gay and are on Xbox Live, then they take your account down. that was a big mess for some gamers.
Ninferno is just a made up name I came up with randomly. People all over the internet have stolen it.
I really have no idea what my gamer tag means. It something that stuck with me since playing Halo: CE over system link on XBConnect... damn i'm old.
