New Skills Mass Effect
[Submitted by: Cheat Masters ]
If you win the game and choose to replay the game with the same character, your character type will be able to learn some skills they would otherwise be unable to learn. For instance, on a 2nd play-through, Adepts can learn to use Shotguns, First Aid, and other skills they were otherwise unable to use the 1st time through.

Edit: What is written above is true, but not completely accurate. You must actually unlock specific achievements associated with weapons and skills for them to be unlocked for all character classes. For instance, for Adepts to be able to learn to use Assault Rifles, you must unlock the achievement that asks you to kill 150 enemies with the Assault Rifle.

Infinite Experience -[Mass Effect ]
Location: the freighter on Feros (in the Zhu's Hope Colony).
You will find a computer terminal that, when decrypted, will alert you to investigate supply shipments that have diverted course in the Voyager Cluster.
Now, if you save your game, and reload it, you will be able to decrypt the computer again for the same information you just got. It is slow but works!

Lose the Mako for extra Experience -[Mass Effect ]
[Submitted by: Cheat Masters ]
You can use the Mako's machinegun and missile launcher to do massive damage to enemies. However, the extra power of the weapons means easier kills but lower experience points. If you want to get more experience (2x as much) get out of the Mako to kill enemies. Tip: You can weaken them as much as you want with the Mako ( run them over, pin them down, etc). But be sure to deliver the final killing blow outside of the Mako to maximize how much experience you will earn.

Easier Aiming -Mass Effect
[Submitted by: Cheat Masters ]
If you want to have an easier time shooting and killing fast-moving enemies such as Geth Hoppers, Geth Drones, and the like, try the following. Open up the command wheel when engaging them in combat. This will freeze the game, but you will still be able to aim your gun at foes all the while. Aim at the fast-moving enemy and then get out of the command wheel. This will score you direct hit after (admittedly cheap) direct hit!

Infinite Paragon and Renegade Points (Mass Effect)
[Submitted by: Cheat Masters ]
*** This may be disabled by a subsequent patch! Here's an effective and foolproof way to score infinite Renegade points. When you get to the part of the game where Lorik Quinn is going to testify against Anoleis, speak to Lorik Quinn and convince him to testify. This will give you twenty-five Renegade poionts. Now, walk away from him, return to him, and ask him something unrelated to the case. You will then be given the option to "Answer another question", at which point you will be able to convince him to testify again, for another twenty-five Renegade points. You can repeat this indefinitely until you score the amount of points you want.
An addition by orp08:
You can get Paragon points using the method as well, just as easily as you can get Renegade points. Just select the blue-colored (Paragon) option instead of the red-colored (Renegade) option, and as before, you can do this over and over again as desired.

Thresher Maw Tactics (Mass Effect)
[Submitted by: Cheat Masters ]
Thresher Maws, which are located mostly on uninhabited or barely-inhabited planets, can be pesky foes. The best way to take care of them, as most people know, is to circle their locations as you pound them with machinegun fire and rockets from the Mako. However, Thresher Maws disappear underground and reappear near your location, and can at times reappear underneath you, instantly killing you (or leaving you dangerously close to death).
A great way to avoid this is to drive the Mako over elevated terrain as you fight these foes. Thresher Maws can only burrow underneath flat terrain, so elevated terrain is off limits to them. If you remain on elevated terrain as you fight them, they will not be able to respond to your attacks with attacks of their own.

Infinite Paragon & Renegade Points Mass Effect
Description: A way to score infinite Renegade points and Paragon points.

Renegade Points
When you get to the part where Lorik Quinn is going to testify against Anoleis, speak to Lorik Quinn and convince him to testify. This will give you 25 Renegade poionts.

You will then be given the option to "Answer another question", at which point you will be able to convince him to testify again, for another 25 Renegade points. You can repeat this indefinitely until you score the amount of points you want.

Paragon points
You can get Paragon points, using the above method as well, just as easily as you can get Renegade points. Just select the blue-colored (Paragon) option instead of the red-colored (Renegade) option, and as before, you can then repeat as much as you like.

Save Your Points (Charm/Intimidate) Mass Effect
[Submitted by: Cheat Masters ]
If you are willing to play the game over and over again using the same character, there’s a way to save about twenty skill points. Your Intimidate and Charm ratings are automatically upped when you become a Spectre. If you play the game over again, and over again from there, your Charm and Intimidate skills will slowly increase as each play-through grants you Spectre status. This will thereafter allow you to put the points you would normally spend on Charm and/or Intimidate on something else, making your character even stronger.

Wear Any Piece of Armor
Armor is created for specific types of creatures and classes. However, there’s a way around that so that you can get any character to wear any piece of armor.

How to:
1) Go to the equipment menu and then go to the character you want to re-equip, finding the piece of armor you want him or her to wear regardless of the character’s race or class and regardless of the armor type.
2) Including the piece of armor you want to equip, count down the pieces of armor to the bottom of the inventory list.
3) On any piece of armor, click the upgrade option. On any upgrade, opt to turn it into Omni Gel and then quickly opt out. This should return you back to the upgrades menu.
