The console screenshot thread (Read Rules)

Do all of you have capture cards and you're playing your console games through it? How are you taking in game screen shots?
 
Is tinypic also banned now ? :(

Most of the PS3 screens shown here are from the ingame functionality, others are from sources like DF(I think the GOW one).

Wow, I didn't know so many PS3 games had in game screenshot abilities. I know Resistance 1 did, didn't know any others did.

What is DF? I googled DF and screenshots, and got nothing.

there was a leak of the arcade version a few months ago and a bunch of people were posting screenshots on /v/
 
I agree more games need a screenshot grab functionality.

More Killzone 2 please! Still one of my favorite looking games across any platform.
 
I would propose the following additions to the OP.

1. Only direct feed screen grabs or frame buffer shots
2. Post screenshots in their native resolution.
2. This means no "publisher assets" with extra AA, extra resolution or non-game angles

This would be great because it's increasingly hard to find real screenshots these days - everyone uses simply the publisher provided ones which all at the very minimum feature tons of extra AA.
 
Ah man, I had a few pretty cool MGS4 pics on my old 60gig. Can I just pop the old HDD into my Slim, grab the pics and put the correct HDD back? Is that likely to cause any problems?
 
Crystal Bearers might not have been that fun to play but the game can be a looker at times and it's brimming with charm. There was really only one pre-rendered cutscene in the game so yeah all of these are in-engine.

Always liked this one from Trial Mode in FF12 International, because the battle is super hard for me (the 5 judges at once):

Sigh wish they'd release that over here, looks so fun.
 
I would like to participate, what's a good capture card these days? I used to use a Dazzle USB capture device that worked fine for SD content, but it couldn't handle a PAL60 signal, so everything I recorded had to be in 50hz.

I'd invest in something like that if anyone knows of a similar device that can handle PAL60 and even better if it supported HD inputs like component or HDMI cables. The reason for USB is purely convenience, for I am lazy and very flexible on that requirement.

Cos:-
1. Everyone has a dev kit lying round or a hd capturecard
2. Everyone loves waiting for pages to load
2.a. Everyone would love to do this but photomodes are what they are

at least that saves me uploading the halo 3 /forza 2/3 / PGR4 / Wipeout HD / noby noby boy i was looking for

looked into this recently, http://www.hauppauge.co.uk/site/products/data_hdpvr.html seems ok, and there was a thread here about hd cards

Amazing Banjo screenshots
Click to expand...
I maintain that that game is one of the best looking of this generation. I really hope that Rare haven't been relegated to a Natal shovelware studio.
 
God, Banjo is such a gorgeous game.

Jumping on the Halo 3 takes over screenshot thread bandwagon:

There used to be a thread or two full of really awesome Halo 3 screens. Ahh here it is.
 
I think if the game has photomode we should be able to use it to differentiate from the PC thread. It will make images more interesting (filters, etc). That thread has the benefit of having screens from different rigs which spice things up for example. Also, the ingame screenshot grabber is a given right?

Here is Motorstorm PR I took myself (Damn which I still had my PGR shots.

Two questions:
1. What PS3 games have the screen shot feature?

2. How do you capture screens in PS3 titles? :p
