If so, would it be worth the couple or few hundred dollars it'd take to upgrade?
Games with a native 1080p resolution and blu-ray movies will look a lot nicer on a proper display than at 1280 x 720. However, how much this matters to a particular viewer depends on individual taste. I'd switch in a heartbeat, but if money is an issue, you can wait a year or two.

If playing games is important to you, then you should look for a TV with a low response time or one with a game/computer mode.
