how do i keep my 360 for over heating

alright im afraid of my 360 from overheating... im trying to get the most outta mine before the new xbox gen console comes out and yes i just got my 360 so can anyone give me tips to try to cool it cool for long peroids of time with out buying a $30 fan attachment..

i tryed these following ways

dusted 360 area

its on an open space with some encloser but not much

**note** it hasnt over heated yet im just asking for some advice to improve my space

Don't play it.stephbm6

when it overheats, does it get hott enough so that you can feel it? i usually check and its usually not hot at all

flat table, not crowded by other items around it. don't put in an entertainment center where airflow will be restricted. i can usually play mine for about 3-4 hours at a time without it freezing or overheating.herbie12282

dont get one of those 3rd party intercoolers because my friend did and his 360 got f'd up becuz of it same with my cousins for the same reasonZ-Bombz

1. Plug it in
2. Wrap in plastic
3. Drop in bucket of water while still holding
4. If you survive....play

OR THE SMART THING TO DO

Keep it in very very well ventilated area. Try to keep the area clean as possible since I assume that might help a little.
