that's normal that it gets that hot, my Xperia S gets that hot while taking a lot of pictures and playing music in between.

now regarding the brightness try to toggle down the brightness then turn it 100% again

there's nothing you can do about it, the only option is to let it cool down for few minutes and then play again, sorry.

anytime, if you are going to be playing for a while turn off wifi, bluetooth and even data plan if you aren't using them

The Xperia S has a thermal protection serivce running, presumably if the phone gets too hot it will lower the processor speed etc.

Indeed, if it gets too hot it will shutdown
