The first three entries in Activision’s highly popular “Guitar Hero” video game franchise allowed players to use guitar-shaped controllers to play along with a collection of hit rock and roll songs. The later entries in the series--“Guitar Hero: World Tour” and “Guitar Hero 5”--also gave players the ability to play drum parts by using a wireless drum kit controller. Using the drum kit requires players to set up both the kit and the included wireless signal receiver.
