I believe that programs such as Guitar Hero are actually not so good. My
daughter is learning to play the guitar. I as discussing guitar hero
with him last week, and he told me about one of his pupils who stopped
practising the guitar in favour of playing guitar hero, to the detriment
of her progress on the guitar.

For the price of a game system with Clarinet Hero you could get a good
second hand student clarinet from Ebay and learn the real thing :-)
