PS3 update adding Facebook inbound

Posted in Sony by Shane McGlaun on November 12th, 2009

ps3facebook-sgSome screen shots of a new update for the PS3 that shows Facebook running on the console have tipped up in Europe. Facebook has been available on the Xbox 360 for a while but hasn’t been offered on other consoles.

I guess Sony is finally tired of Xbox offering things that the PS3 doesn’t. Now that the PS3 has Netflix and will be getting Facebook; the Xbox has two reasons less to buy it rather than the PS3. There is no word on when exactly the update will hit.

The update will also reportedly add the ability for users to change the color of their gamercard. I’m not nearly as interested in Facebook on the PS3 as I am Netflix. I am not a big social networking fan.
