How to Post Your Playstation Trophies on Facebook

By now, I'm sure you've noticed many of your friends posting their PS3 trophies on Facebook.  Want to join in the gloating?  Easy peasy:

Turn on your PS3.
Select the Playstation Network menu.
Select Account Management.
Select the aptly-named Facebook icon.

From here you can choose to Share Trophy Information, Share Purchase Information, and Share Event Information.  Click one, say Yes, and enter your FB info at the prompt.  And whoomp, there it is.  Next time you sync up the PS3, your latest awesomeness will be posted to The Book of Faces.

This video from the firmware v3.10 preview will walk you through it as well.



That's the program -- now get with it.

Playstation Network Trophies on Facebook

Now all can know of your gaming
greatness.

"Should I activate the PS3 trophy posts on FB?" a friend asked.  I answered quite strongly in the affirmative.  All of my social-network-capable friends and family get a little ping each time I knock out an achievement, download a demo, or buy a new song for Rock Band.  This can't be any more annoying than updates on people's mafias, right?

The response, in the main, has been positive.  There has been some teasing to be sure, but far more conversations have been prompted:

• so what do you think? is it all it's cracked up to be?
• what are you playen (sic) bro
• hey they dont have this demo in the UK :(
• How far have you gotten? I'm actually having dreams now about assasinating (sic) fat Italian dudes via a blade to the face.

 See?  People talking about your favorite hobby.  Now Blizzard needs to add this function to Warcraft...

Uncharted 2 Twitter Function

When you absolutely, positively have to let everyone know about your gaming, accept no substitutions.

Imagine, if you will, a world in which people send each other brief notes about their video game exploits. The PS3's new hit Uncharted 2 features Twitter integration, making this world a reality. But why?

The tweets are sent when you reach various milestones, sort of an instant version of the PS3's trophy collection. But the real value comes in with a single update: Connected to Multiplayer. Now when the amigos are ready for some online action, you can know right away.
