Mass Effect Hints
Infinite Credits
Can be done anytime after saving Dr. Michel, and coming back to the Citadel.
After you do the supply drop mission from Dr. Michel she will give you a discount on the supplies she sells. However this discount works both ways as she will now buy anything you sell to her for much more than the other vendors. Now sell her as much stuff as you can, and go to Expat, you can buy back the stuff and still make a profit, keep on doing this and you will unlock the millionaire achievement.
*The first time you will lose money but ultimately you gain a ton of Credits, and it only takes about 45 min.*

Mass Effect Easter Eggs
Old Bioware Nods
Nihlus the first Spectre you meet is a nod to Darth Nihlus in KOTOR 2 they even have the same face paint.
The Selkath undewater base in KOTOR 1 has the same name as the rift station in Mass Effect where you confront the Rachni.
A lot of characters in Mass Effect are similarly named to races and characters in the KOTOR games like the Thorian refers to the Ithorians from KOTOR, Saren's injuries (geth implants) are a reference to to Malaks face injuries in KOTOR cuz before they both betray the good guys the get badly damaged in a fight of some sort.

Shifty-looking Cow
Entry Location:
Ontarom
When you find Ontarom (Dead Scientists assignment takes place here) look for the gold deposit, around it is a herd of cows that look more like lizards and deer put together. One cow is labeled "shifty-looking cow" if you try to talk to it nothing will happen, but when you walk away it will steal some of your credits (don't worry it's only about 8). There's no way to take them back either, even if you kill it.

Mass Effect Glitches
Backwards Earth
When you first land on Luna, the moon of Earth, look at your map and head west toward the three buildings with the six turrets. After destroying the turrets, park the mako in the middle of the three buildings and look around for Earth. Once you have found it zoom in as far as possible and you can see that Earth is backwards.Florida is where California is and California is where Florida is.
