Welcome to the Diablo 3 cheats page, where we’ll cover everything that isn’t already on our massive text and video walkthrough. That includes guides, tips, tricks, glitches, easter eggs, and everything else extra under the terrifying sun of demon ravaged Sanctuary. Take up arms against the monsters that wish to destroy your world with five unique classes that you can take online at any time to play with friends or fight each other to show who’s the best. Since the events of Diablo 2, two decades have flown by, and the lush nature of the world is finally coming back now that evil has been crushed. But, the Archangel Tyrael suspects something strange is going on in the demon infested realm of the Burning Hells, and your band (or lone!) adventurer will have to sort out this mess. Discover the problem, or let the world burn — not really much of a choice.
While the story may be linear, there are branching paths as you progress. Not only are dungeons randomly generated, but smaller mini quests will also appear periodically as you explore, giving you quick rewards and incentive to check out all the locations around your Hub. Now that you’re willing to look everywhere for that one extra piece of loot, settle in and find treasure below with our full list of extra pages all for Diablo 3.

Welcome to our massive Diablo 3 text and video walkthrough, where we’ll delve deep into the depths of Hell to bring you the tips and tricks you’ll need to survive. Prepare your left-buttons, because the clickfest is about to begin all over again with mega developers Blizzard still holding the reigns to this massive franchise. Taking place 20 years after the events of Diablo 2: Lord of Destruction, Diablo 3′s tale is one steeping in mystery. The Archangel Tyrael returns to help you investigate the Lesser Evils and their missing army from the Burning Hells, which will no doubt require the murder of several legions of horrible monsters.
To help take down the armies of evil, Blizzard has provided five classes; Barbarian, Wizard, Monk, Demon Hunter, and Witch Doctor. Each of the classes can be customized as your upgrade their skills, and their looks will be more diverse with male and female options available for all classes. Questing has been stream-lined to include random mini quests, or character specific quests to go with your linear story monster squashing. It’s going to be a long adventure, so curl up with Deckard Cain and listen to our story (In text and video formats!) as we lead you through Diablo 3.

If they ever had any doubts about the potential for DOTA 2′s success, Valve can probably sit back and relax. New stats from Steam have just been released, and it’s apparent that people really, really like it. It’s the second most-played game on Steam, beating out Modern Warfare 3 and Skyrim. Which makes it officially a big deal. Taking a page from PC Gamer (h/t), here’s an image created using Steam graphs comparing recent player activity with DOTA2 compared to Skyrim and MW3.
What makes this impressive is that DOTA 2 is still in beta. It still has not received a final release date, and though officially it’s planned for some time later this year, it could still end up being pushed into 2013. Despite this, people love it. Expect it to be huge when it finally launches for real, making Billionaire gabe Newell even richer, and jowlier than ever.
This weekend, everyone can be El Presidente! Tropico 4, easily one of the most charming and polished simulation games in recent memory, is free to play on Steam until Sunday at 1PM Pacific.
