It's normal that the phone becomes warm when playing games or browsing, but it should not become hot. This is hard for me to determine over a forum so I suggest that you visit a retailer, I'm sure they can help you determine if this is within normal temperatures or not.

I had a similar experience when I got my Xperia at the end of March, after I tried to update the software via PC companion, it went blank, and became almost too hot to hold. Was afraid it would catch fire! It never started up again, got a new replacement from the Mobile SP.

Since then no problems, perhaps some issues with early models?
