Mass Effect 2 Hints
General Minigame Notes
1 of 4: You should always quicksave before attempting a minigame so you can quickrestore if you fail it. Some locked items let you retry after a failure, but many won't.
2 of 4: With locked items that contain credits, the number of credits you get will start going down if you don't finish the minigame fairly fast. If that happens, you might want to quickrestore and try again.
3 of 4: You should also always quicksave after successfully completing a minigame to make sure you don't have to do it again. It's very aggravating to succeed in a minigame and get lots of credits (or whatever), only to get killed around the next corner and realize you haven't saved recently.
4 of 4: Taking fire while attempting a minigame will abort it early. Doing a minigame doesn't pause the game, so make sure an area is free of hostiles before starting a minigame.
