Twitter and Facebook integration has come to two of the big three consoles of this generation with both the Xbox 360 and PS3 now allowing you to keep updated in between games.

Although your Playstation will automatically update Facebook when you earn a new trophy in a game, apparently that functionality is missing for Twitter (I own an Xbox 360 instead so can’t test).

But Dirk Olbertz has come to the rescue – he emailed me to say that PS3Heroes.com now allows you to update your Twitter status with your new PS3 trophies.

You’ll need to register with PS3Heroes.com, add your Twitter username, and allow access via OAuth.

And that’s it done.

I’m surprised the official auto-updates favour Facebook rather than Twitter – in terms of auto-updating accounts, you’d assume the focus would be reversed – but this will solve the problem for the time being.
