how many of them actually belong to the GameSpot user? On Mygamercard.net it is practically effortless to produce a gamercard of whoever's gamertag you want, and does no checks to see which gamertag you really have. Some here may not even have an Xbox LIVE account at all. I also observe most of the gamertags in the signatures here are of high numbers and more often than not are higher than my formidable 11,100.
99% of them are probably legit. Why would someone lie about something so stupid?

They'll lie since practically there is no way to verify it. GameSpot doesn't really plan on even caring if they are carrying their actual GTs in sig, and there's honestly no reason for them to care. Also, this is the internet and anonymity is virtually guaranteed. However, one could attempt to contact the GT on Xbox LIVE and find out further inquiries.

Wow, just wow. I really hope you are joking. For one, why would any care enough to do that? Then, what if the real owner were to see it and bust them? That would be pretty embarrassing. And, 11,100 is anything but formidable. I got my 360 on the release date in 2005. That's four years ago. If I were to complete not even 3 games a year I would have your "formidable" gamerscore beat. Even if they didn't belong to the person who is posting, these accounts still exist and they belong to someone, and they still beat your amazing gamerscore. And last of all, why do you even care?
would would anyone lie? and 11,000 is not that goodchaoscougar1
ehhh mistaken! he has 11,100.. and whats the point of having a fake one? who cares bout gs? people who show their gt either want to be added, prove they have an account or to show off something they think they dont want to but in reality they do...

HAHA, I has better gamerscore than you. :P My Gamertag is mine. You're right, no doubt there are people who troll though. Maybe in System Wars.
I don't see a point in making a fake one, in a way I guess its to please yourself. Thinking about it who even sees a game tag on a sig and thinks more than 3 seconds about it? Shouldn't you save it for when you see it on the X-Box Wii or Playstation? Really the people that make a fake tag don't even need to be called out, if they made one I'm betting they have enough problems as it is no need to make there life any worse.

^ Totally agree with this guy. I would bet that unless this starts a trend no one has ever faked a gamertag on here. Most people just want to show what they are playing, and get adds if anyone else is playing the same games.

How long have you had your 360? I've had mine since December 2nd 2005. Usually if someone has a higher GS than you it just means they've had their 360 longer or play it more than you do. But yeah, my GT in my sig is mine. I'm watching a HD-DVD at the moment then I'll be playing some Shadow Complex. I finished Fable 2 last night.

But yeah, my GT in my sig is mine. I'm watching a HD-DVD at the moment then I'll be playing some Shadow Complex. I finished Fable 2 last night. Since December 2006. And no, I don't think that a higher GS necessarily means they play more - players who focus primarily on online multiplayer tend to have much lower gamerscores than those that prefer single player, mainly due to developers tendencies to focus their achievements for offline play to avoid achievement boosting. COD4 and COD:WAW are most like this, with all their GS either single player or cooperative Nazi Zombies.
well its not that hard to get more points than 11K i have almost 10K and i havent had my 360 for a really long time and i suck at achievements but i have a good amount of games i got for low prices some games give easy 1000 points in a few hours or even minutes (i have x-blades and avatar on my mind but there are others)
I use my gamertag as my gamespot username and the username for many other things like my name on Steam, so it's definitely mine. Is that really your gamertag?
If someone had a score of 100k+, I might think twice, but anything below 80k seems doable. Mine's only a bit over 20k+, mainly because I don't have as much time for gaming as I used to.
Look, guys - I'm not pointing out at any particular user here, and am assuming good faith, but I find that the relative ease of putting someone else's gamercard in your sig is simply easy enough and since almost everyone here seems to have gamescores >25000, it seems unlikely that every one who posts a gamercard in sig really has such a high gamerscore. As an example, http://forums.xbox.com/29175833/ShowPost.aspx http://forums.xbox.com/29175833/ShowPost.aspx, you may see a lower average in gamerscores there as the only way to access those forums is with your actual Xbox LIVE account. However, I *WILL* agree that you ARE a loser and sad for posting someone else's gamercard, and I am an honest person. That's why I'm a "lowly" 11,100.

Also, think about it dude, you're on a website dedicated to gaming. Therefore, most people on here will be gaming enthusiasts and I'm GUESSING they play a lot, hence scores that are quite high.
I've only had my 360 for about 2 months and along with finishing both my majors in college and working full time, I really don't have time to pursue those little achievements here and there. I could care less about gamerscore, so I'm perfectly content with my 1600 :)
People put tags in their sig so they don't have to put them in their post when talking about playing games with others. Putting a fake tag would be like telling the guy at the bar a fake number. Decent plan if he is a tool and your just trying to get away from him. But kinda backfires if he is Brad Pitt.

I don't think your point is valid because the COD games are the only online shooters I can think of that have mostly campaign achievements, and are popular enough to be considered relevant. Yes, if someone only ever plays COD online they will have a low gamerscore. Thanks for pointing that out, Mr Obvious.
what? why would you put a fake gamertag in your sig? Who would actually be embarrassed about their gamerscore? I can almost guarantee you that every gamertag here is legit
