I have had 2 go's and both have overheated when using for about a hour and half.
I think the Gos have a thermal problem. The first one I returned for the one I have now and it does the same thing. They both have sometimes froze up and have to be rebooted occasionally. I still like the head set, I wonder if a light weight heat sink could help.

The thermal warning for overheating kicked in so that worked as expected.
Once when I plugged it into the wall charger when I was running out of battery during a long Catan game. (I since switched to using a power bank during Catan games that are longer than the internal battery life, and that seems to keep it from happening.)
Once when I put it to sleep & on the wall charger without exiting the current app. When I picked it back up later, it was complaining about over-heating. Because the thing wakes up so easily...like when you're covering the lenses. So now I always make sure that I leave the current app and—after covering the lenses—tap the power button again if I hear it wake up & make sure I hear it go back to sleep.
So, the overheating you're seeing certainly doesn't seem to be endemic.
