Sony Online Entertainment may be publishing games for a new gaming platform besides PC and PlayStation consoles. It all depends on your definition of the term "gaming platform." Sony Online Entertainment announced today that it has launched its first Facebook game, PoxNora, a free-to-play strategy game that is also available on the PC. According to the announcement, SOE is planning "additional games for the Facebook platform based on both existing franchises and new intellectual property."

While this isn't as much of a seismic shift as seeing Sony's console properties come to the social networking service, it does mark a major change for the company as the one of the first PC-focused online gaming developers to make the jump to Facebook. Will companies like NCSoft and Blizzard join suit? This promises to be an interesting topic of discussion for this week's Game Developer's Conference.
