PlayStation Network App Coming to Facebook; More PS3 Integration
Facebook was first incorporated into the PlayStation 3 experience back in November of last year as part of PS3 system software 3.10. It’s usefulness was limited, but with it came a promise of more features to be added as part of future firmware updates. Some new features are now here thanks to PS3 firmware update 3.40 which is due out within the next 24 hours.
Adding to the ability to post trophy and PlayStation Store activity onto your Facebook news feed which was ushered in with firmware 3.10, the PS3′s Facebook integration is taking the next step in socializing the PSN experience. Sony is releasing a PlayStation Network Facebook application that gives users the ability to post their PlayStation Network profile, along with a full trophy card, on Facebook. Find out which of your Facebook BFFs are on the PlayStation Network and send them an invite using this new application. Once your Facebook friends are added to your PSN friends list, you can check to see if they’re online.

This don’t even work with sub-accounts. The people that run the PSN for SONY are fucking retards. Do they not think that people create sub-accounts even when they are over the age of 18?
This sounds pretty cool.
NOOO PS3 needs a FaceBook App on thE xmb like the 360 it will make me use facebook more.
It does too work on sub accounts. I just used it.
The Facbook App is live, i just used it..
I’ve said it before…..how about Skype instead with PSP-eye enabled.
It’s on the PSP….c’mon Sony.

You sure it was a sub account?
Facebook is just an after thought, not needed.
Very nice feature.
Don’t trust facebook! They broke their own privacy policy by giving away my personal information to third party companies without permission or forewarning, along with thousands of other users! Here’s an unbiased article on the subject:

Let it be noted that in my case the information shared was set to private, NOT PUBLIC, and facebook changed their privacy policy for the hundredth time shortly after I deleted my account as a result of this. Consider yourself warned! Imagine what would have happened if they got their hands on my credit card info that’s associated with my PSN account…
Is ti possible to change the psn id associated with your facebook account?
@TheHater
Who in their right mind creates a sub account if they are over 18? Granted people who are under 18 with sub accounts are going to eventually be over 18, and should be able to convert to a master account, but again, why would anyone create a sub account if they are already 18+?
