Published June 1, 2009

Facebook and Xbox LIVE are joining forces to connect the largest social network on the planet with the largest entertainment and gaming network on TV.

Soon you can share and interact with friends from around the globe, post real-time status updates, and check out photo galleries on the big screen from the comfort of your living room with Facebook on Xbox LIVE.

What's more, with Facebook Connect on Xbox LIVE, you can share your favorite gaming moments with all your friends.

Starting with a future version of EA SPORTS™ golf franchise Tiger Woods PGA TOUR® for Xbox 360, take bragging rights to a completely new level.

In addition to Facebook, Xbox 360 today announced that Twitter and Last.fm will also be tailor-made for your TV, brought straight to your couch only through Xbox LIVE.

Making TV More Social
"We are always asking ourselves how to make the TV more social," said John Schappert, corporate vice president of Interactive Entertainment LIVE, Software and Studios at Microsoft. "By bringing Twitter, Facebook and Last.fm to Xbox 360, we're not only extending the walls of your living room beyond your home to your friends all over the world, we're creating the definitive social network, uniting more than 300 million people to share thoughts on music, play games and tweet."

The addition of Twitter and Facebook to Xbox LIVE means friends are always connected, anytime, anywhere—any couch. Updating your status, sharing photos, and tweeting won't be the only things you can do. Using Facebook Connect, you can share your greatest moments in gaming by posting updates and screenshots directly to your Facebook profile. Don't let your moment of glory fade away—make sure everyone sees it with Facebook Connect, starting with a future release of the premier EA SPORTS golf franchise Tiger Woods PGA TOUR.
