These Grand Theft Auto screenshots are fake!

19 totally false GTA images spawned by the lovable internets

One thing we noticed - stamping Rockstar/GTA branding onto a CGI image of a street, complete with traffic and pedestrians, produces an alarmingly convincing fake shot.

Squint really hard and you'll see the boat has ROCKSTAR printed on it.

This one is really well done, and seeing exactly how it was pieced together only makes us realise quite how much spare time some fans have to mess around with image software. They must never get any proper work done. Like us, in fact.

GTA's iconic iconography - the yellow destination triangles, fat text font, top-right HUD, radar - makes almost anything look like a screenshot. Perhaps with GTA IV's 'real' look, with more subtle icons, will actually look like a fake itself. Or maybe not.
