Is it normal for the laptop to warmup in the area between the keyboard and monitor after gaming when you shut it down?

Whenever I game and shut the laptop down it warms up like it's releasing steam
 
Pretty normal, your laptop is essentially switching between convection and conduction cooling when turned off.
When running, the fan moves air around to get heat out of the laptop.
When the air stops moving, the physical components inside start to warm up from direct contact and disperse the heat that remains from shutdown.
