People comment on $4!+ in this thread all the time. Perhaps I was more out of line than I thought. Nick, I apologize I offended you in some way, that was not my intent.
It was also not my intent to disparage what is clearly the greatest video game of all time. 
I hope that I am wrong and that video games of this type might actually entice people to take up actual musical instruments and heaven forbid real sports like tennis, golf and bowling, but the track record is not good.
We are now one of if not the fattest, laziest, and lacking in the "arts" counties in the civilized world and at least some of that can be attributed to video games IMHO.

Next time you get a chance, play Guitar Hero or Rock Band. It's not "the same" as playing a real instrument (i.e. you could totally rule at Guitar Hero and not be able to play a single chord on a real guitar) but it does require a similar skill set of dexterity and rhythm. As far as video games with real-world redeeming value, it's pretty much at the top of the list... which should have been obvious watching that guy playing the eDrums in that movie.
