PlayStation 3 update may introduce Facebook, gamercard colors

Gallery browsing also made easier, other possible features

Well, social networking is the new thing, and Sony is hopping aboard with Facebook integration.  Originally thought to be a rumor, some legit screenshots have popped up, showing some much-desired features planned for the next firmware update.

Other than Facebook, PSN users will be able to change their gamercard colors and browse image galleries more efficiently.  Okay, Sony hasn't actually confirmed this, but the screenshots found on their site have been circulating the Internet for hours now.  For the time being, the company has decided not to comment.

Whether the screenshots are legit or not, there stands the possibility that they were mock-ups done by the staff and leaked by some misinformed source.

    Duh, any device that can access the internet. Its not as if you couldn't use Facebook on the PS3 before this update, as Nagare noted.

    I was never able to access facebook with the PS3 web browser. It would never load any of the statuses. And if they do this, Im assuming it will be a lot easier to access then the current way.
