Hi, I am thinking about buying a 360, it is the only next gen console I do not currently own, nor have I ever. I have a few concerns about them though so I will shoot off a few questions I can think of right now, may run across more later.
First, the overheating issue. Everyone I know who has or had a 360 has burnt up atleast 1 system. From my uncle who plays maybe 4 times a month for no more then 2 hour sessions, to my best buddy who plays 6 hours a day, 7 days a week. What do I look for when buying a 360 to prevent this issue. Any particular model lasting longer then the rest? Any tips on how to prevent the system from overheating if you are a semi hardcore gamer? I don't play 24/7 but in spurts as my work sometimes takes me away for 1-2 weeks at a time and my gameboy keeps me company then. So when I am home, after my kid goes to bed I like to sit down and sometimes I wont quit for 6-12 hours. Any accessories available to help with this issue?
Is the gold service for online worth it?
Is there a huge difference in FPS' on the 360 compared to ps3 as I hear so often, or is that hype?
How much money am I looking to spend to have a fully wireless Xbox with a keyboard?
Thanks for your time!

Understood, thanks for the info. I will find my patience.
Moved last week so I am getting rid of alot of things just sitting in my new living room packed.. my wife is not amused. If any potential buyers would like to conduct inquiries on facebook, you can find that info in my profile and can contact me there as well. Those messages I will receive almost instantly for the most part, as they come to my phone.Thanks!

No interest at all? That sucks, really hate to sell it to some random non gamer on craigslist or pennysaver so they can resell it for loads more..

Pic's up. Both system's are in fair condition. I say fair due to the labels being like a well used baseball card. Ragged around the edges. The AC adapter for the atari has a slight shave in the wire casing, but not the wire itself, I have electric tape on it. One set of games is in a shoe box, the other is in a cartridge deck that has seen better days, but does it's duty. Thanks!

Ah ok, well I can post pics np, and I'm more of a viewer then a poster. Have had my account a couple months just haven't really wanted to sell this stuff... I don't use Ebay, and the only other sites I frequent are MMO related. I am known in the FFXI, FFXIV and WoW communities though, if that matters any. (:
As for trust issues, I have no problem with sending the goods to a well reputable member before receiving the money. If they happen to be on the east coast maybe we can meet in person. Everyone has to start somewhere. Just moved to a new place, so let me find my camera, and I will upload some pics.

Awesome, thanks for the detailed info! I was planning on waiting until closer to the holidays so hopefully they bring the price down a bit, or give a great deal. I would need a HD as I'm a big fan of independent games. Good to hear they fixed the overheating issue, I don't know anyone with a slim 360 so I couldn't get honest user opinion, thanks for covering that.
I also wasn't aware that the 360 has no browser, would of never thought that considering they are Microsoft. I don't have cable, I stick with Netflix and Hulu Plus for better then cable, at a fraction of the price and I am also wanting another machine to run those programs, so my PS3 isn't burning up all day while my son watches his shows.
Also didn't know they made the new ones fully wireless. Whenever we played my uncles 360 it became a hassle with the wires hanging and his kids playing in the same area. lol. Good to hear.
Thanks for the feedback! Can't wait to get into Gears of War!
