I lowered everything in the default options section of the game.

Is there a way to lower them even further? Like a console command, or even configuring a file?

Mass Effect 2 is based on Unreal Engine 3, which allows for quite a lot of tweaking. See this page for a number of suggestions. Also, since Mass Effect 2 uses the same engine as Mass Effect you could check this excellent tweaking guide (aimed at performance) from Tweakguides.

Which is kinda amazing if you think about it. ME2 is so much prettier than ME1. –  Raven Dreamer Jul 14 '11 at 6:41

In your video card settings, you can set the Direct3D (or simply 3D) settings lower, or further towards "Performance."
