PlayStation 3 Firmware 3.10 Adds Facebook Today [PS3]
How’s this for a quick turn around. Facebook integration for the Cross Media Bar interface was only confirmed on Monday, but it arrives today with firmware 3.10—a day after the 360 added Twitter and Last.fm. Watch the preview:
You’ll be able to share game trophy and progress info, plus PlayStation store purchases on your Facebook news feed, and deeper integration is expected down the road. [PR NewsWire and Sony via Kotaku]
Firmware 3.10 also includes:
• The Photo category on the XMB has been revamped to make it easier to see more of your photos stored on the PS3.
• The PSN Friends List has been modified based on feedback we received after update 3.00. Additionally, you can now choose a color for your PSN ID on the XMB.
