The Xbox 360 is not exactly known for its cool temperatures. I fondly refer to mine as a space heater. That is handy in the freezing cold winter months but not so convenient in the blazing hot summer months. Now that temperatures are officially warm and we have weeks of hot days ahead of us, we could use some cooling down.
The Xbox 360 is resourceful in the regard that you can plug in any small USB powered device and have it function while you are gaming. Would you like an interactive aquarium? Plug it in and watch those fishies go! Looking to set the mood with the person you are gaming with? Plug in a disco ball, turn the lights down, and let the romance begin. On a more useful note, here are 3 USB powered fans you can plug into your Xbox 360 to get immediate relief from the heat.

All of these fans are very reasonably priced. There is really no reason to not get one. I mean, we all need something USB powered we can plug into our 360s right? I am pretty sure it is a sign of being uber cool. See what I did there? Saying cool in an article about fans? Nevermind.

I need something USB powered to plug into my 360, just for the novelty factor. I am leaning towards the disco ball. Gotta set the mood for Halo, right?! LOL …

Thinkgeek had a USB mini-lava lamp. That would be sweet for your pad. :lol:
