Facebook confirmed for PS3

A source close to Sony has told Eurogamer that yes, Facebook is heading to PS3.

The images of the service that appeared on the PlayStation website - caught by Scrawl before removal - were posted by mistake, we're told.

The official Sony UK PR line is that there will be more information on this "very shortly".

I really hope this facebook/social crap is no more than an optional install. I dont use them on my computer much less on my PS3.

I would better have Sony improving the browser (it's still slow and crash prone) and the media content manager. I want to be able to rank my songs or make smart playlist.

@Bellow

Thank you man. I know you have a say in Sony. If you have problems reading, reread my comment again:
"hope this facebook/social crap is no more than an optional install"

That comment is self explanatory. I dont want to clutter my XMB with crap I'm not gonna use.

I don't see myself using the service, but this will work really well for people who are thinking of buying a PS3. You've got a lot of people in social networks that will be intrigued by updates from friends and ask them about how the PS3 is, hopefully. It's even more an advertising boon then a new function for consumers.

I've gotta say, their whole marketing plan is looking better every day.

@Typical-guy

I love free stuff and I love my free PSN. If you see my comment history rarely I complain about Sonys firmware or PSN update, on the contrary even when the ugly looking grey boxes were implemented on the last firmware I remained supportive understanding that is just a preliminary step in a major upgrade. However I think this facebook thing is a waste of resources and a somewhat lame "me too" attitude on sony part. Why is facebook coming now when nobody is asking for it?

1.12 - Complete waste of effort

there are many things which could/should be done before this. But integration with these tools is an advertising feature. You can put it on the side of the box/in ads etc.

"More stable browser!" probably wouldn't make someone buy a console. It's all for the "sell factor".

I don't don't use any of this social crap. I see it as a complete waste of my time.

Your retarded. You could access Facebook and a bunch over other social apps through the PS3's internet browser anyway. Sony is just implementing an easier way to do it. In essence, the PS3 was able to do things like Facebook and Twitter long before before the 360 could. M$ has to add things like Facebook and Twitter separately because it has no internet browser. Next time, please do your homework on the PS3 and it's capabilities before making uneducated comments.

They are probably doing it to take the steam out of 360's "exclusive features", sorta like a punch to the gut to Microsoft. And Sony will brag that's it's free and make Microsoft look like jerks for charging for Live.

You know, its probably just a shortcut to the internet browser, thats easy to do, all they have to do is put an icon like they do with the "internet search" icon.

I understand that they put them in firmware so people can know about them. But I agree you should be able to delete the apps. And if you want them again it should be in the PS Store under an app section.

1.23 - Wuts REALLY interesting to me is that...

...the OS on the snapshots is set to the Portuguese language. Im only an amateur Portuguese speaker myself, but Im perfectly fluent in both Spanish and French, and it's definitely neither of those...

My question is, if it was REALLY meant to be posted on the UK site EVENTUALLY, some time in the future, why the hell would the PS3 used to take these snapshots have the OS language set to Portuguese!?!?!?!? It would've definitely have been in English... Something fishy's going on here.

I theorize that this was no accident... The images where definitely put there deliberately. Whether just by some random employee or by Sony themselves... These images where uploaded to that site and "leaked" on purpose.

Either way, Im personally not interested in a Facebook app, probably because I dont have a Facebook account, since my girlfriend doesn't allow me to. But I guess that's not Sony's fault... I guess it's mine for being such a horn-dog... And getting caught while being a horn-dog... But, we live and we learn. Right? A lesson to you all! If you're gonna cheat, DONT EVER LET YOUR GUARD DOWN. The second you let something sly cause you feel everything's safe and nothing will happen cause you've gotten away with it a hundred times-- BOOOOOOMMMMM!!!! Your f*cked.

But I also to patiently await cross-game invites and chat. OMG!!!! I want those so bad. Sh*t... I truly feel like that's the only thing that that damned 360 has over the PS3. Once those things have been implemented, there'll be no reason to even MENTION the 360's name again. Hell, when that day comes, I wont even ACKNOWLEDGE the 360 as a competing system from that day forth. I wont even-- I wont even-- Imma just pretend like that sh*t don't even EXIST from that day forth. Imma see them piling up on the racks over at Gamestop and im not even gonna let them know that I noticed they're there.

Alright everybody, imma go light this blunt and think what excuse to tell my girl for tomorrow night. Cause I got a hot date with this half-philippino half-puerto rican chick with an ass the size of... Yall catch my drift... Alright! Adios!

Something Sony is realising. It's completely pointless to point out that it's accessable through the browser if no one uses it and it doesn't add or identify with your PSN account in any way?

When you realise the difference (like Sony clearly has) you're realise that it's Sony copying microsft ... again ...

The better service? The one with laggy P2P servers and little 12 year old kids who only play Halo and COD all day?

I'll stick with my free PSN with a adult community and Lag free network....Plus I got more games to play than you LOL!

Follow the leader. Sony the copy cat.

Just like Natal/Eyetoy, I presume. Which are both ripoffs of the Dreameye.

Maybe LIVE should copy PSN and make their sh!t free so you people don't have to look dumb by having to pay for something that you've been brainwashed into thinking is better.

Maybe MS should follow the true leader (considering Playstation 2 alone sold more consoles than Xbox and Xbox 360 combined and then doubled!) and implement . . ..

Built in HDD standard on all models.
Built in Blue Tooth (for controllers and headsets)
Free Online Play
Built in Web Browser
Better system design
Next Gen Media format

. . . .Instead of using a format brought by PS2, charging for online play, charging for every little add on imaginable, faulty products, etc.

Saying Xbox is the "leader" in the video game market is a farce. Nintendo has two successful systems on the market and Sony has 3. Xbox, while having a good start, has sold roughly 70 million units over 2 gens so far while Playstation has sold over 270 million units of "consoles" (No PSP included) over its 3 gens. PSone and PS2 sold over 100 million units by themselves respectively (and counting for PS2, closing in on 140 mil), and PS3 is following basically the same trend as its previous Playstation systems.

Think about the history of gaming before you go on about Xbox and its "innovation".

PS3 had Facebook years ago. It's just fancying up. How's that copying?

Avatars? Now that real ingenuity right?

...I think I better stop visiting the Open Zone. Too many bots around here with very low IQ. :/

I don't care about emo applications on my PS3.
