    Changing output to 720p

    Thanks for the input. Why didn't/don't Respawn just set the it to 720p instead of 792p? Surely when upscaled to 1800p there is no difference?

    Changing the balance has the same effect as changing the volume.

    Why are you saying "ingame" if you are not on xbox? Account credits don't work on the website. Why are you trying to change your gamertag if you don't even have an xbox?

    Well, im playing Dark Souls on the PC, ingame you can press the middle button on your xbox controller, to open up the menu, and from there you can change your gamertag at your profile.. I used the code on the xbox website, and now it is on my microsoft account.
    However, when i go ingame, there is nothing there..

    Changing Gamertag?

    This website has been having a series of transaction errors and coding errors. Sounds to me Games for windows live is having similar issues. Unfortunately Currently the only way to change your gamertag is through the xbox 360 or xbox one consoles.

    Gamer tag

    I received a forced Gamertag change. Can XBLPET let me choose a new Gamertag for free?
    Some rumors give the impression that XBLPET will provide a free Gamertag change to accounts that have received a forced Gamertag change. This is not the case.

    In the past, a forced Gamertag change gave users the opportunity to change the offending Gamertag free of charge. Unfortunately, this gesture was prone to abuse, and many people simply chose new, equally offensive Gamertags. As a result,
    the Gamertag enforcement process changed. A forced Gamertag change now automatically assigns a new Gamertag to the account, much in the same way a system-generated Gamertag is provided when you first sign up for Xbox Live.

    If a player is unhappy with the assigned Gamertag and wishes to change it, he or she may purchase a new Gamertag through the

    standard Gamertag change process

    gamertag change

    Hi there,

    I'm afraid there are no free gamertag changes, if a gamertag was deemed to break the CoC/ToU then you will given a generated one and if you want to change the gamertag into something chosen by yourself it will have the fee like any gamertag change.

    See this link for the steps:
