Facebook coming to Xbox 360

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Casual, Culture, E3, Microsoft, Xbox 360, Xbox Live

Xbox 360 Facebook Home screen

In addition to Twitter, Facebook is also coming to the Xbox 360 this fall. You’ll be able to update your Facebook status, browse your news feed, view photos, and more, all from the Xbox 360. Even better? Games can take advantage of Facebook Connect, to publish screenshots and other details directly to your Facebook account, if you so choose. You’ll also be able to send Facebook friend requests to those in your Friends list on Xbox Live, if they’ve linked their Facebook and Xbox Live accounts. Get a look at the Facebook on Xbox 360 screenshots that we’ve put together, so you can get a better idea of how it will all work.

Facebook sucks ass. You people have no lives. Twitter is just another useless hyped program made to heard all the sheep. I can hardly go a day without someone mentioning the shittiest programs known to man, and now I have to deal with it on my Xbox? #### THAT. All I want to do is play some games AWAY from programs like these and people like you. Bad enough they forced the “New Experience” on us, but now this? Well, I guess it’s back to P.C. where you can CHOOSE the content you view. (To an extent.)

You’re an idiot, just as he is.

Number one: you’re obviously a child without the ability to come up with a decent argument, so you personally attack another.

Number two: I disagree with his opinion as well, but he has as much right as you do to voice it.

And number three: If you lack the intellectual ability to bring up a coherent argument, and this goes to the other dumbass as well, then get the #### off the internet. We already have too many fucktarded, moronic, ####### retarded dipshits on here. We don’t need another. So, you can go #### yourself for all I care, and afterwards, mayhap you should look into getting a so-called “life”. I hear they’re quite useful.

Now, to the actual subject matter:

“Yay” is what I’m supposed to say, right? It’s Failbook, on X360. Woop-de-#############-doo.

I don’t care in the least. The 360 is a game console, not a personal computer—though, odds are it won’t remain that way for long, if Microsoft keeps at it as they are. Honestly, I’m waiting for them to add email, Xfire, and Vista support. Once they do, I’m just gonna sell my heap and use only my 360.

Wait, let me get this straight…

It’s okay for Facefagger to voice his opinion because “everyone is entitled to one” but it isn’t okay for laughinurface to post his because he’s retarded and thus should be banned from the internet?

I agree to name calling over the internet is simply stupid, but as you said earlier, ALL have a right to an opinion. If you don’t like someone’s opinion, say something or don’t, it’s your choice.

Also, talking about intelligence over the internet is a losing battle, especially in the comments section of some random blog. For instance, I could easily crack on your intelligence for saying that the Xbox 360 isn’t a PC. A 360, just like almost any other gaming console, is nothing more than a PC that’s locked into doing a limited amount of things. You should take a look at the original Xbox sand all that has been done with that. As a matter of fact, even Xbox 360’s are running Linux now. This is surely just the beginning.

Anyway, I for one am glad that Microsoft is intergrating more popular services with their console. The good thing about these implementations is that you have an option of whether or not you want to use it. If you don’t, simply don’t use it. Just because you think it’s idiotic doesn’t mean that everyone else who has an interest in it shouldn’t have it because you rather it not be done at all.

Unfortunately for you, no one really gives a #### what you think Microsoft should do (and n one cares what I think either.) I just think you should be a bit more fair about it. If you don’t like it, de-selct the option and move on, it’s as simple as that.

Also, what I don’t get, if people are tired of hearing about Facebook or other similar services, why in the hell are they reading articles about it online?

Matthew Matthew 10/4/09 9:13 am

That was beautifully said Jason, i couldn’t agree more! You have my respect. I for one am glad that games consoles are spreading there wings a bit! I use facebook now and again and i also play lots of game on the 360 so its great to use both on one system! Fair enough if you don’t like facebook, simply don’t use it and stop crying about it!

I’m actually really excited for this, even though i do not have a facebook or twitter account. This just might get me to sign up!

...and for the people hating this, I can ALMOST guarantee that this update will be entirely optional. I CAN guarantee that if I don’t like the integration of facebook and twitter then… well, i just won’t use it.

—The Xbox 360 isn’t just a gaming console, it’s a. entertainment system too. Just remember that…

FYI. he has a life, unlike you it seems like, cuz you apparently have alot of time to spare typing all that S@^# up. And xbox360 is also a entertainment system so shut the #### up and get off his back

Omg I’m so excited for this <3 This new update is great exposure for Britney Spears. I’m going to promote the hell out of her!! Twitter: I can make Britney a trending topic and Zune: Britney music videos! Yayyyyyyyy

“All I want to do is play some games AWAY from programs like these and people like you.”

Do you really think anybody gives a #### about what you want? They have introduced Facebook and Twitter to the Xbox 360 because they’re popular, and believe it or not, millions of people worldwide use them.
Stop bitching and deal with it.

Finally some people who speak sense, I totally agree with you Jason people shouldn’t waste their time with idiotic arguments in these forums… forums are a comment page where people can express their ideas and opinions not to slag down a add on for the 360 ... I swear sooo many people do need to get off these forums stop moaning and find out what life is really like and mite I add     (Find out what facebook can really do for you before moaning about it just because you cant get used to it or no one likes adding you cause your such an as*hole) yes I am talking to you Facefagger… my opinion im glad facebook and twitter are coming to 360 it makes life easier and more enjoyable for future games..eg Tiger woods 2010 (you can upload a picture of yourself getting a hole in one to facebook)  and personally I think Microsoft should keep adding extra stuff 360 to make it the best console ever… but that’s just my opinion

NURKLE MAN247 NURKLE MAN247 10/27/09 11:42 am

lol my gamertag was ment to say   MURKLE MAN247   not   NURKLE MAN247

MURKLE MAN247 MURKLE MAN247 10/27/09 11:43 am

Biggest Faggot FaceFagger.. First off we have no lives for wanted to talk to people on Facebook? You have no life for playing video games you stupid inbreeding faggot. I hate people like that. New Experience? how is that bad.. lol that is the best thing ever you retard. FaceFagger you dont even disserve to have your own opinion and should seriocly never come back to this website. You are the biggest inbred alive and should be killed off as soon as possible… Thank you, and have a nice day fag

FrostxInfinity FrostxInfinity 10/30/09 12:01 pm

Here is the funny thing ladies… almost everyone that wrote a comment towards FaceFagger, spoke of intelligence. Well aside from Jason, and those agreeing with him…who are you to speak of intelligence? Do you not understand that this person most likely checks this forum day and night to laugh at your lack of that which you speak of? Just throwin it out there…

u are gay u are gay 11/4/09 9:55 pm

U ARE FUCKIN STUPID AND U ARE A ####### FAG

Berandas Berandas 11/5/09 12:00 am

You guys are all FAGS. This update’s going to be sweet. And FaceFagger is just some Fag who likes men. Don’t yell at me, I’m just typing it how I see it.

...Brah.

wow all you people bashing others for their opinion really need to get laid. I am not a fan of facebook and Twitter on my xbox either but I’m not going to get into a heated argument about it. I have better things to do. I only wish that facebook and Twitter will be optional. if not ohwell. not much can be done about it. so why bitch. just play your damn games like I will. w00t 4 days until mw2

oldschooler4589 oldschooler4589 11/6/09 10:36 pm

I use facebook everyday, I speak to friends all over the world on facebook. Including my bestfriend that now lives in great Brittan that is dying from cancer. I have grown fond of facebook and look forward to it coming to xbox. I know that there are some people that don’t care for it. I am sure it will not interrupt your gaming experience, especially if you don’t have an account so what the HELL are you griping about you anti-socialites!!!
By the way, will I be able to chat with my friends on this new facebook for xbox?
