Play game video on high resolution in fullscreen in Youtube, when suitable image is seen hit print-screen = done.

Boo, that'll give you blurry pics. Better off playing the game on an emulator and taking screen caps from it.

Not if you use HD video fullscreen

Even with HD video you'll get bad quality. Youtube adds more compression to videos.

As for taking screencaps, there are several ways to do it if you want the best quality:

• PC games - If you're using Steam just press F12. If not, press Print Screen and paste into a graphics program.
• Older consoles/handhelds - Use an emulator. Most if not all have a built in function that allows you to save screenshots.
• Newer consoles - Use a video capture device (Haupage, Dazzle, etc.)

If you don't want quality - Arseen's method is OK.
