It’s easy to forget how far Xbox Live has come since 2002. Microsoft has, according to Major Nelson, started clearing out “previously used and unavailable (dead) Gamertags.”
So if some squatter has a hold on your ‘tag of choice, you might just be in luck. “This process will take some time to complete, and no we can’t tell you when the Gamertag you want might be available. If you are interested, you should check back regularly as we are reviving Gamertags daily.”
Relevant news, anyone? I’m set already, and even if that was not the case, I doubt I’d pay the $10 fee to change my Gamertag anyway.
