I would recommend to play the games on power than on battery. If you are experiencing overheating while playing games, please try installing BIOS update from the following weblink:
http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp76001-76500/sp76219.exe
Installation instructions are available in the following weblink:

What @Vidya said is correct.
Also keep in mind that these machines are designed to run within these tolorable temperatures.
The laptop will get a little hotter when plugged in because some hardware is throttled down when on battery to conserve power. It doesn't need to do this when on AC power. 🙂
