Sounds like a very cool project, but a big one. When you say 3D game, do you mean like quake or like 3D pong? How much time do you have?

Yes you can use it, there should be no problems.

Google for C++ tutorials.

Sound stuff, I assume that would be pretty easy to learn.

You probably would appreciate a book, especially if it is your first language.
It takes about a year to learn a language to the point where you can do cool stuff. Again, time comes into the equation. You might want to look at something simpler if you don't have a lot of time.
Learning with a friend is cool. It helps.

Good luck and have fun.

PS don't take my word as the absolute truth, I have only had experience in java.

do you have a microphone? I have heard that an earbud will work when plugged into the mic port. Record your own sounds.

I would suggest going to the class... they actually turn out to be useful sometimes!
