[Reasonable]

How were they the first to use facebook? Facebook has always been usable from the ps3 browser

That's laughable. The PS3 browser is crappy. Also, the PS3 does not have a Facebook specific app yet, the 360 does. That is why MS can make such a claim.

PS3 browser isnt 'crappy' its good for most things, IT does also mean i have facebook, twitter, youtube anything i want really so not 'crappy' at all lol

So then you must think Internet Explorer is not a crappy browser. Nor is my cell phone browser since It does allow me access to all the aforementioned sites. You sir are silly, just because you have a browser, does not mean it will work as well as an app used for one specific purpose. 

What does the 360 app add?  Is it just a specific app to do the same stuff as accessing Facebook from your PC (after all generic browser access to Facebook, whether from PC or iPhone is arguably the standard approach) or does it add stuff specific to gaming, etc.?  I'm presuming the latter, otherwise it offers nothing other than an integrated access point to the same destination.

I like it when stuff like this is integrated, and do feel Sony either need to give their browser a big boost or simply go via direct integration, but I think wayyy too many people make a big deal about it in terms of making a difference to either console.  It's simply plugging them into something that already exists with wayyy more users accessing it via other means, hardly Earthshattering and in the end, if you like Facebook, if the end result is similar whether via a PS3 browser or an integrated app neither can be said to be a huge USP.

Anyway, I think the title's misleading.  I thought Natal was MS killer weapon?
