Guitar Hero
Guitar Hero is a series of music video games published by RedOctane, in partnership with Activision. It is notable for its use of a plastic, guitar-shaped peripheral to simulate the playing of music, represented on screen by colored notes that correspond to fret buttons on the controller. The series has used a range of both licensed and independent rock music tracks from the 1960s to the present, many of which are master tracks from the bands. Games have been released for video game consoles, as well as for mobile phones and the Nintendo DS handheld gaming system. The Guitar Hero franchise has become a cultural phenomenon, making many appearances in pop culture, with the games extremely popular as party activities and hobbies.
