A dongle is necessary for PlayStation 3 owners, so players want to be sure they have one available. PS3, PS4, and other PlayStation owners will need one USB dongle per guitar. A normal PS3 controller is used to play, but players may want to use a dedicated Guitar Hero instrument to have the most fun experience possible.The play consists of gaming operators hitting red, blue, and other colored buttons in perfect rhythm to what is displayed on the screen. Each of the instruments offers up some variety of the red, blue, green, and other buttons to test your skills during each song. "Guitar Hero III" owners love the additional catalog of songs that "World Tour" brings to their arsenal.
