I suspect what's happening is that, during normal operation, the heat being blown out by the fan also happens to find its way out through the USB port because these things are still built to a price and so the fan's exhaust duct isn't sealed all that well. By leaving something plugged into that port during a long gaming session, the heat can't escape and it melts the innards of the cable/port.
But that's odd, because wouldn't that port also be where you'd plug in an external hard drive? Do owners with external hard drives plugged in have this same problem?
