Ok, ive seen 100,000 posts about n2 3dfx screenshots that are fake
I want to see them with my own eyes, maybee show them to a graphic artist to
see if they've been tampered with...

They are one, the links no longer worked. They looked pretty authentic
to me though - I think the bilinear filtering would be pretty hard to
fake.

You'd be surprised what they can do with image processing software.

All you have to do is blur the picture a little.

    After saying they were fake, I had some additional information from
Papyrus and some official sources that somebody hacked into Papyrus private
FTP, and that some 3dfx beta version were "stolen" (a.k. downloaded).

So these are really the 3dfx screenshots, and if the webpage is out it's for
some obvious reason...   I think the guy understood ;-)
