@GoodKingJayIII provided the following way to skip much of the introduction for the PC version of ME2:
A lot of people don't like the opening 10 minute intro movie, but there is a way to get rid of it. Go to:
C:....mass effect 2\BioGameMovies
Change the extension of the following files to .bak:
Opening_End_Seq.bik
Opening_End_SeqFM.bik
Opening_Seq_INT.bik
ProCer_300_FirstFlight.bik

This will not get rid of everything, you still have to watch the non-CGI cutscenes and Save Joker. But it does cut down quite a bit. If you want those movies back just rename them to .bik again. If you're worried your renaming the wrong thing, you can download a BIK palyer and confirm the files.
3. For those who hate planet scanning and hacking, there is an easy ini file edit floating around. This is just a colaseced editor that you guys have already been playing with but this one seemed pretty idiot proof to me. This again needs an external program but is non-excutable.

This has all kinds of stuff like god mode, extra weapons, infinite ammo etc., but if you just want the money, just use it to get your resources, save, then exit the game and revert to the non-hacked state.

@korodullin has kindly offered some R&R with a wonderful game of bingo!
@curly haired boy strikes back with awesome wallpapers taken from the ME2:
@Orca has kindly complied all of the shamelessly awful pictures posted in this thread.
@Orca explains how to transfer ME1 to Origin:
From the other thread, enter your info here: https://activate.ea.com/gameactivation.do
then create or link an existing EA classic account. Origin should figure out what's up without you doing anything more at that point.
*If buying ME somewhere other than Origin and it doesn't contain BDTS or PS, contact Origin CS and they can get it fixed for you.

Thanks for the heads-up, added!

Man I haven't played this in forever. I bought, but still haven't played through Omega or Citadel.
Maybe it's finally time for an insanity full playthrough.
Or not. Steam games are killing me right now.
Origin: Galedrid - Nintendo: Galedrid/3222-6858-1045

Do you still have pages 2 and 4? Seems like those links don't work anymore.
Citadel is the best, most rad super fucking incredible DLC ever. Do it!

As people to torture for information.
Because of having three spare eyes.
Batarians are the worst at anything else though.
But Batarians make a fantastic punch glove.
And spikes that explode.
I mean, c'mon! Hatesurfing!

I can't stop laughing.
Grunt, go home. You're drunk.
Why I fear the ocean.

See, I was thinking, "Well, can't be that bad. I've seen the worst the maladjusted have had to offer."
Wrong.

Naw
But Shepard & Archangel Investigations should totally have been a 10 hour noir DLC on Omega in ME2.
The "In case of emergency, release Inferno Grenades" button is below the dash.
Volus vanguard with the gauntlet... For added fun a incendiary falcon to go with the gauntlet. Timing is tricky on a laggy session though.
You take the Charge has 50% no cooldown upgrade and you keep Charging until you get a cooldown. Then you punch.

In the third one, the interrogation scene from Thane's loyalty mission and the rampage episode (my personal fav) match up perfectly in tone!
It's even better than what was in the actual game!

Links directly to the comics in question, because they amuse me:
Gift for Thane
These two comics - aren't actually - related, - but they very - well could be.
Bad-ass adorable!
Camaraderie!
Quads!
Funny Bumps
The feels are out there
Save it for the hanar
Overly literal
I'll stop now.
