With twitter,facebook,zune marketplace and last fm integration that will blow away psn forever. You can take screenshots from all games and post them to facebook for all to see. I dont think theres any reason to buy a ps3 anymore. Also theres 1080p streaming so that replaces blu-ray.

Whichever M$ Boss is responsible for this outrageous Xbox Live Update, and is planning Xbox Live's Future should be fired immediately.

Facebook: Can be done on PS3

Twitter: can be done on PS3

last FM: can be done on PS3

Because we can ;)

Also the 360 and PC are not "brothers". We're a fully capable gaming platform without the help of Microsoft.

Haha, I think this is a bit of an extreme statement. I didn't by a video game machine to use Facebook or twitter. And the PS3's growing library of AAA exclusives is more than enough to warrant the price of admission.

No, but you can tweet and facebook on a 360. That = instant win, 1,000,000 sale boost.

You're kinda right. This could be the NEW thing for consoles. I don't see why people are disregarding something as huge as facebook. Social networking intergrated into a consoles OS will go a LONG way to making you feel more connected with your friends. It goes beyond pure gaming purpouses.

Look at the iPhone. It's sold so much cause it can do things, that other things can do for free, and better. Yet it's still touted as a revolutionary phone.

Gaming consoles=gaming. We don't need any of this social networking stuff on consoles. We have PCs for that, and its good enough for me.

As huge as Facebook? Do you seriously see this feature being used much 3-4 months after release? The thing isnt even integrated well for people to actually care about. I mean, seriously, type tweets on you 360 using the on screen keyboard :lol: (not many have the pad) ?

Lol my PS3 has been doing this since release date. Oh and guess what? I can do twitter, facebook, and Last.FM at the same time! Oh lets throw myspace in the mix while we are at it too! This thread is fail, give up TC Live is trash and not worth $50 a year. That money could be spent on another AAA title to your collection.

But why would you bother actually trying to post updates using a controller and moving the cursor to a selected letter when you can just go on your computer, post a message in just seconds, and you'll ready to go?

Maybe gamers such as yourself may not use it.

However im sure MOST gamers will use it everytime they turn on the Xbox.

I for one like to check what's going on before i play a game on my xbox, with the addition of facebook i'll have even more to check and get involved with.

IF ms market this correctly it could even increase sales, especially if they base some Arcade games around facebook intergration. Facebook has a lot of games that people play, bringing them to Live, and making some exclusive to live will be a good idea.

Facebook will probably be popular on the Xbox 360. That simple.

However im sure MOST gamers will use it everytime they turn on the Xbox.

I for one like to check what's going on before i play a game on my xbox, with the addition of facebook i'll have even more to check and get involved with.

IF ms market this correctly it could even increase sales, especially if they base some Arcade games around facebook intergration. Facebook has a lot of games that people play, bringing them to Live, and making some exclusive to live will be a good idea.

Facebook and Tweets can increase sales :lol: And people thought the Wii was joke?

You're kinda right. This could be the NEW thing for consoles. I don't see why people are disregarding something as huge as facebook. Social networking intergrated into a consoles OS will go a LONG way to making you feel more connected with your friends. It goes beyond pure gaming purpouses.

Look at the iPhone. It's sold so much cause it can do things, that other things can do for free, and better. Yet it's still touted as a revolutionary phone.

As huge as Facebook? Do you seriously see this feature being used much 3-4 months after release? The thing isnt even integrated well for people to actually care about. I mean, seriously, type tweets on you 360 using the on screen keyboard :lol: (not many have the pad) ?

Facebook will probably be popular on the Xbox 360. That simple.

Never said it wouldnt. Of course many will use it, but I dont people giving a damn about it 3-4months after launch once they see how tired and pointless it is. But of course, this is my opinion.

Maybe gamers such as yourself may not use it.

No that would be a very stupid idea. There something called alienating the user base. Its a big middle finger to those who use it.

I don't like getting involved in these things, but honestly why would you want to do these things from your 360. I can see if your gaming console is a considerable distance from your PC, but even then you will probably have to exit out of what ever you are doing to be able to use one of these social networking features.

It's not alienating anyone. Allowing Xbox Live games to be made to work with facebook would be a great idea. It's not like you're taking away from what current facebook users can access.

I have a feeling that the people downplaying it;s impact are those who aren't in to social networking. Or social thing outside of WoW at all.

XBL is still not free, and PSN still is. Tons of people use Iphones for updating facebook and twitter stuff too, but really, consoles are better for GAMES. I will use my PC for social networking stuff. now if M$ can integrate Internet Explorer 8 into XBL, THEN i'll be impressed. Web Browsing on the Wii and ps3 is just so so. A FULLY functional browser would be nice (in case i'm too lazy to walk across the house to use my computer).

so really the xboxlive update will NOT blow away the psn. xboxlive's interface is too clunky still.
