It's hard to suggest anything without knowing what is meant by "their own way." As far as worshiping according to your "own" ideas, I would think the example of Cain and Able applies -- Indeed, a first reading of Genesis by someone who is unfamiliar with God's demands of blood sacrifices is likely to view God as being unjust when they come along and reads of Able's vs. Cain's sacrifices. Cain sacrificed "his way" and likely thought he would still please God because of his work, but God was interested in obedience, not work.

However, and I think this is very important: listening to music and playing video games has nothing to do with worship and especially salvation -- either way. Your last comment makes you appear to doubt the authenticity of their salvation because of those things. I would be more concerned with where their trust lies than what kind of music they listen to.
