screenshit

A "bullshit screenshot"; a pre-rendered image that is displayed by video game magazines and websites in a manner that misleads the public into believing that it represent the game's actual looks. Word first used in the webcomic "Penny Arcade".

- Wow, check these pics of Red Steel on IGN! It looks awesome.
- Fakes, man! Pre-renders! Look, the Wii renders at 480p, but these pics are much bigger. So they are just screenshits!
