having a house that is hot
playing it for long periods of time
putting it into a cabnet or other place with low air flow
having it sitting directly on a carpeted floor which covers some of the vents.

The power supply is also known to overheat after long periods of play and shoud also not be set directlt on a carpeted floor. This will cause it to shut down and need to be replaced.

I have both my 360 and my power supply elevated off of the carpet with as little surface area touching anything as possible. The 360 i used old VCR tapes and the power supply i used a small jelly jar. so neither one has much surface area touching something to heat up.
