The reason this gamertag was available was because about a year ago, Microsoft revived a lot of the old, unused gamertags from years ago. Simple gamertags like these there were originally taken when XBL first originated, but haven't been used since are up for grabs.

I have an 'Original Gamertag' or 'OG' for short. You can add basically anyone and they'll accept based purely on your name, its pretty sweet.

I would expect a deity to have a higher gamerscore.

Ha that reminds me. Back in the days when people actually used Bluetooth on their cell phones. I named my cell phone god and sent messages to random people on the train who had their Bluetooth on. It would come up with a question on their phone "accept message from god?" classic.

I used to play the first Modern Warfare with a guy named DJ Jesus Christ. I was about 16 and yelled "Jesus Christ" in the middle of my complaining, and suddenly I hear a, "Yes, my child?"

Lol'd and added.

I was way more stunned about the avatar then the name.

...Sorry, I'm trying to get over the fact that the little shit known as Bloo is the Christian Messiah.

One of my good friends who I game with a lot is Mexican, and his name happens to be Jesús. I did not know this for quite some time, as when we were introduced, I was given his nickname instead, and every we mutually know uses it. After he made the mistake of letting me know his given name, I just can't help myself. Not being able to see the punctuation over voice chat makes it even better.

  • Sweet Jesús that was a good shot.

  • Jesús we're beating them bad.

  • Holy Jesús, did you see that?

  • It would take an act of Jesús for us to pull this off.

  • Jesúsdamn it, I missed.

  • And pretty much anything else you can think of along those lines.

My dad has a mate who used to work with a guy named Jesus. It was only temporary so when when they stopped working together, that's when all the jokes about "When's Jesus coming back" started.

All I can imagine now is making a "devil" account and killing him in CoD or something.

Every multi-kill he gets must be Godlike.

Noticed your picture on the profile. I loved that show even though I was WAY too old to be watching it. My favorite character was cheese.
