I just want party chat and a better trophies system. I don't know how they could improve it, but I prefer the 360's version. Make them automatically sync, and when you compare trophies to a friend make it not take 30 seconds to load up what games they have played etc, for a start, instead of changing how stuff looks.

I'm in the preview program on the 360 so I've had Facebook for a little while now and I got to say, it's not really all it's cracked up to be on a console. If I want to access Facebook, I'll do it from my computer thanks. I just wish instead of wasting there time doing things like this and Home, Sony would actually listen to their customers and implement some features that everyone's been requesting since the PS3 came out. _________________

Nice new features and good to see they're doing something about trying to compete with the 360's online features.
Some kind of msn integration would be cool though. _________________

LOL @ Gamer-Card customisation. That is going to be totally worth the slow update.
I wonder if facebook will be just a tie in allowing you to post things from the PS3 via the webbrowser or a full blow app. _________________ Shin J Leon.

Since the MS in MSN is Microsoft, I don't see that ever happening. _________________

^ Meebo maybe? cuz I think he means chat in general.
Last time I used the PS3 Browser I couldn't get Meebo working, but if its fixed now it'd be sweet to get an integrated XMB version of it, but yeah I'd rather see some other demands met before any of this customisation nonsense. _________________

Who needs facebook on consoles when you can play games on it?
*ahem* Sony, there is a lot of potential in attempting to try and make Playstation Home a much cooler place (like a in-game game festival a few times a year or something?)... So try and do something cool for Home!!! _________________ "Work hard now, play even harder later"

To be honest, facebook integration and changing the colour on gamercards is worth a day-long update...
Please, give it a few months and do something HUGE!
It's still going to take the same amount of time to download, since you have to download the entire thing, not just the additions (which is stupid and makes no sense). _________________

so with this facebook integration, does it dynamically report what game you're playing? or live achievement feeds? _________________

Meh, useless update. Now I have Facebook on my computer, iPod Touch, 360 and PS3. Yay. And friends lists colours might be kinda cool, but not worth the update.

I just unlocked two Trophies in Assassin's Creed 2, and they posted to my Facebook account. Pretty cool. _________________

No idea what people are going on about with a slow update. Mine took like a minute to download.
Pretty cool update but not super useful. I can whore out my trophies to people on facebook at least. _________________

Error occured during download operation 5 minutes after it got to 1%, which took 10 minutes.
Extremely slow update... _________________

^ We have this every time Ken. You whine about how slow the update is and for pretty much everyone else it's quick as. I think I said this last time...but, you need better internets
Everytime these days, the actual install of the firmware takes longer than the download for me. _________________

Also when you sync trophies they will sow up in your fb feed.That also works with games you purchase off PSN.
I really like this update.

This appeared on my facebook. These are the trophies of Denny.
I looked at it and went WTF to Ratchet and Clank: A Crack in Time achievement... _________________ "Work hard now, play even harder later"

They don't call us whinging poms for nothing .
I need better internet but my area is a black spot for internet. I'm not in the middle of nowhere, I'm five minutes away from Skilled Park...
I'm downloading it off the computer because it's more consistent. It's got 2 hours and 50 minutes remaining, 12% complete. I feel like I have reason to complain. PALGN and my friends are the only vent for my frustration as my parents consistently tell me that we can't get new internet.
Sorry, I know it's annoying for you lot but it's just so f*cking annoying for me.
The facebook integration sounds good though, I like the idea of trophies been put up on facebook.
It's not that I'm jealous, it's just the injustice of it all... _________________

Took me 10 mins.
The facebook plug in is OK and it's nice to have Trophies come up in FB I guess. This was done on Live a while ago, but M$ removed it because it ended up spamming up your account. I can see similar things happening here.
Certainly different to the 360 update which is a full blown FB app. _________________ Shin J Leon.
