Game Screenshots

[bighurtx82]

I was just wondering how screenshots of games are taken when they are posted in game reviews. Do people use the print screen key when in the game, an independent program, or a built in feature of the game that is hidden?

I use print screen.

Many games have a screen shot feature that's usually not 'hidden', jst not obvious. Look at the config files to look for the bindings. F11 and F12 are popular SS defaults. (I rebind to 'R' for quick snapshot action.) Or use a program like HyperSnap DX.

Alright, thanks for the info!
