To play music on your PS3 while gaming, you can use the in-game XMB. Just press the PS button, go to the Music section, and start your tunes. Some games might mute the game's own background music, but that's a win if your playlist rocks!
I used to plug my iPod into the PS3's USB port, go to Music, and play the songs from there. You can control your music without pausing your game. It was like having my own personal game soundtrack!
Honestly, not all PS3 games support custom soundtracks. You might be out of luck if your game doesn't allow it.
