This is the 3rd series of the "Guitar Hero" which is pronominal of the guitar game that recorded a mega hit in all over the world.
Playing it by holding the button of the guitar controller according to the color of the various-colored "note" which flow in to this side from deep inside of the screen with music.
In spite of very simple play style, refreshing feeling to play the famous rock tunes with a guitar controller(Les Paul Model in PS3 version) of Gibson official recognition is definitely addicted to any people regardless of age or sex.
