Umm... actually JPEG compression will often tend to have the effect of pseudo "anti-aliasing" a screenshot -- making it look smoother.

The raw BMP images from the XBox would look worse/more pixelated, I think.

 

 

Yes, bluring a picture is the same as pseudo AA ...

Or is it!?

FSAA, sorta, yeah.  It really depends on your point of view.  Some people hate FSAA.  Some people think its cool.  

I don't mind jaggies myself, so I usually think anti-aliasing is very much not worth the expense.  Other people have the opposite opinion.  The point is that, the screenshots are close enough that you should be able to tell what your preference is, whether the sources are BMPs (converted to JPEGs for websites, btw) or JPEGs.
