    Need advice about xbox 360 situation.

    fellas...needed some good ole advice about my 360. anyways, i have noticed how warm my xbox 360 gets pretty much immediately when i start up the game. BUT i have had no problems whatsoever with red lights lighting up on the console, freeze-ups, or wierd occurences with the machine. just overheating in the back of the console. basically, just worried about the overheating issue. but the thing is, i am not a hardcore gamer that plays for like hours upon hours straight. the most i play is probably an hour or so. just to get in a good ole game of nba 2k6! unbelievable game! anyways....just wanted to get everyone's input. i bought it at walmart so if they get another shipment in, i could POSSIBLY bring this 360 back and get a new one...BUT i find it difficult to take a risk only to get a possible nonfunctional xbox 360...should i just be satisfied with the one i have and just be glad i got the machine or what? any input would be great. later fellas...

    Your xbox is fine...you don't need another one.

      If its overheating then take it back. If the next ones dont work right take them back also.

        Your xbox is not overheating. It gets hot, it has 3 processors and and a state of the art graphics card. The heat has to come out somewhere.

            As long as your 360 has good airflow, you'll be fine. If you put it in an enclosed space, the heat will build up around the machine and that's when the problems start.
