Being able to just have fun actually playing an instrument has truly been a blast for me the past 20 years.

I bet it is - more than just fun, I imagine, but enriching. Not everyone chooses to enrich themselves in that way. I have chosen others. But it's still fun to play Guitar Hero or Rock Band with a bunch of friends, despite having no musical talent or practice.

If tunes get stuck in your head, you have musical talent. If you can play a rhythm game like Guitar Hero, you can probably play music too. It used to be that most every household had someone very good at music. In the same way that there was a lot more awesome home cooking.

I don't disagree, but I also don't see why that should make me self-conscious for having fun playing those games.
