PS3 gets Gaming Integration with Facebook

Facebook will be integrated into an upcoming PlayStation 3 firmware update.
Sony has confirmed earlier reports that the social networking website will arrive on the console in the near future.
Firmware 3.10 is to allow PSN accounts to be linked to the service, updating trophy and purchase information to news feeds.
The integration will also let developers publish additional information related to the game and set specific criteria such as the regularity of updates.
The upgrade will further streamline photo viewing functionality and modify the look of the PSN friends listing.
The announcement came as Facebook and Twitter support was released on xbox 360.
