How do you make an offer on and buy a foreclosure property?

If the property is already bank-owned, do you make an offer to the bank the same way you would with a seller? I heard that if a property is already bank-owned, you can make outrageous low-ball offers on the property and that some banks would accept next to nothing to unload a foreclosed home. Is there any truth to this? or should i make the offer i would if I were dealing with the original seller?
