Yes if you have HD and a surround sound it is amazing. Especially with COD4.
it would work with surround sound and it would make the game a bit better, but get a 1080p HDTV first, thats the ultimate upgrade
well it depends. what r u gonna use it for when u not playin the game?????
Most games 5.1 surround sound is good on 4 ps3 are war games (call of duty or any other) and racing games, you can hear competitors advancing on ya. For games like shooter, spy or racing and some others surround sound is more of a useful tool than for enjoyment, but they work hand in hand.
Playing on a surround sound system really helps you game play. In call of duty 4 you can hear where the gun shot are coming from (ie behind you to the side etc..). It also makes gaming a lot more fun. Get the sound system and you wont regret.

DO NOT use RCA cables (red white yellow) on a surround sound system. These cables only support 2.1. Use HDMI (if the reciever has it), or the best option is an Optical cable (which can be used on the PS2, PS3, 360, and probably xbox.

Assasins Creed is also awsome on a surround sound system. And it makes movies a lot more enjoyable too.
