A 2.1 may be stronger in the bass as compared to a 5.1 or vice versa. You just have to read reviews, ask users or even go over to the shops with the speakers on display and test its sounds tthere to confirm.
If you are just an avergae user who are not particular about sounds then a 2.1 will be fine. But there are gamers and movie goers who are particular about sounds in entertainment and demands a realistic experience of the media. How does it feel like in an action, horror or car chase movie where you will feel like your are truely experiencing the play when you can here ghostly foot steps from the rear or gunshots at point blank or fired in a distants echoing of into the night? How does it feel like to play a stealth game and besides your controls and tthe display panel, you rely on sounds to determine the direction or location where the enemies that are approaching. In situations like this a 5.1 will definitely be better since it will have a good bass output, 2 rear 2 side and a front speakers to delivery surround-sound experience.
