Update: Looks like these shots were taken directly from the PlayStation website itself.

 

Original: Facebook integration, the ability to change your gamercard colors and more are coming to PlayStation 3, if these images from an anonymous tipster are to be believed.

 

The leaked images show the ability to manage your Facebook in your PlayStation Network account settings, changing the color of your PlayStation Network gamercard and a new, more sufficient way of looking through your photos.

Rumor: Leaked images show PS3 Facebook integration

The internet is abuzz regarding apparent leaked images from Sony Computer Entertainment Europe, leading many to wonder if Sony is planning for a firmware update that would include Facebook integration. The images, spotted by ScrawlFX, showed a Facebook icon in the XMB.

 

More rumors about this possible future firmware update include a new photo viewing option and greater gamecard customization. Largely, the new customization may include color changes. The leaked images were allegedly pulled from PlayStation.com in the UK. As you can imagine, the images have been removed.

 

Sony has a strict policy (like pretty much every company) of not commenting on rumors, but we’ve asked if PlayStation 3 owners can expect Facebook integration.

 

For now, this is just a rumor, but not completely unbelievable.

I dunno whats the need when u have a browser but whatever i just want those fcking grey boxes changed.

 

The browser has a lot of issues. It hangs like crazy, you can only open 6 tabs at once, it doesnt respond at times etc. etc. Id know coz Ive used it a lot....a LOOOOOOOT! :chair:

but why use a console for facebook :thumbdown:

 

you guys always got your laptops/desktops on...

same reason why xbots use the 360 for twitter and facebook :samui:

 

anyway, I just wish they'd change the grey boxes around the friends list and make loading a little faster...

they need to update the XMB first. i dunno but lately it's become inconvenient. i need to be able to distinguish my full games from the demos downloaded from PSN. i need cachaeing of my friends 'avatars' so i dont have to wait a bit wile the crap loads. the trophies need to be stored locally. atleast a cache.

need search to be implemented kinda like spotlight in mac os x.

 

the os feels dated to me.

 

oh, and to those who think the browser should be reason enough to not get facebook, a dedicated app always works better. plus they might offer further integration like on XBL.
