Anyway back on track. You prob are just worrying to much as consoles and computers do produce a lot of heat. Just play for longer and if it crashes then your xbox may be faulty and i would suggest looking into a replacement.

Although OmegaTreeFish is technically right that CPU increased CPU usage will cause more heat generated it is highly unlikely that any person could tell detect a difference in temperature while playing R6V2 vs other games like GTA4. You may notice a tempurature difference between sitting at the dashboard and playing a game as the dashboard only uses one core while retail games likely use 3 cores and push the CPU limits.
I would not worry about overheating due to what`s running but rather the overall tempurature and location relating to ventalation of the XBOX360. If you are comfortable that the environment is reasonable then the only case of an XBOX failure will be because of chance. I`ve run 4 XBOX360`s for 1.5 years (excessively I may say) and no problem has been a direct or indirect result of overheating.
The earlier 360`s just run HOT! Don`t worry and have fun. If one fails...deal with it at that time.
