After seeing the chutzpah displayed by one of our illustrious members here, I got rather angry and started googling around. Here I present the result: every single review Roman5 ever posted to GOG.com is cobbled together from the work of others, in one extreme case even from a single source. To wit:

Broken Sword: Director's Cut

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Broken-Sword-Shadow-Templars-PC/dp/B00005AM4I
http://www.amazon.co.uk/product-reviews/B00005AM4I/ref=cm_cr_dp_synop
Presumably new content:
"This game is also available on other services but here it is, finally on GOG.com - DRM free with loads of additional content
For the price you absolutely cannot go wrong - Play this game"

Neverwinter Nights

http://gameindustry.com/review/item.asp?id=637
http://www.amazon.com/Neverwinter-Nights-Diamond-Pc/dp/B000B8K7RC
http://www.gamefaqs.com/pc/930137-neverwinter-nights-diamond/reviews/review-110864
Roman5's addition: "If you haven't played this game yet, you will not be dissapointed, even if you already own the Boxed Diamond edition, it had some DRM problems in the past, fortunately GoG has brought this title DRM free in all it's glory and with loads of Free and Extra content"

Tyrian 2000

Copied in its entirety from here:
http://www.gamespot.com/pc/action/tyrian2000/player_review.html?id=544594
with "And still lives today, thanks to the fans and GOG.com" thrown in at the beginning and "Bottom line here: This game being free -you have no excuse. Download and play this game today." at the end. He even included the bit about DOS, even though it makes no sense here.

Icewind Dale 2

http://www.amazon.com/Icewind-Dale-2-Pc/product-reviews/B000065DGH
http://www.actiontrip.com/reviews/icewinddale2.phtml
Roman5: "Not to mention that for this low price, you cannot go wrong, play this game"

Alien Shooter

Mix and match from:
http://www.amazon.com/review/R1OGZE8Q2KJGBS
http://www.amazon.com/review/R2CH30VXM148MW/ref=cm_cr_pr_viewpnt#R2CH30VXM148MW
with "Plainfun" appearing out of nowhere (bad C&P job) and a "4/5" added at the end.

I rest my case.

LOL is all I can say really.
Most sites would ban for such things as this. But here, I guess the best the original authors can hope for is to have all those reviews deleted. Man, what a little fuckwit.
Hmm, interesting, and slightly ironic. On the basis of an argument with roman5 on another thread, I assumed he merely mocked those who dared to hold an opinion different to his own. On the basis of this, he seems incapable of forming his own opinions, or at least articulating them properly.
Plagiarism seems to be all the rage nowadays

But seriously, this just sucks...

The funny thing here is that like our ex defense minister his first reaction and behaviour forced others to take a deeper look and bring more stuff on the top.

Well to be absolutely fair, he could have written those reviews as well... I doubt it, but I'll give him the benefit of the doubt.
If there is a weekly draw for a reviewer to win a game, as suggested elsewhere, then this is absolutely disgusting and he should be banned, in my opinion. If that isn't the case then it's still shocking behaviour and the reviews should be removed.

How can you give it benefit of the doubt? It's copied from multiple reviews from different people on different sites in different countries. There's no way they could all be him.

After a quick look: There are different authors on amazon and gaming sites quote, so this is not very likely. Also you normally link or quote to your full reviews.

Edit: Roo slow, Gremmi was faster.

You can't prove that... multiple accounts on multiple sites. Like I said I doubt that it is the case, but I still think at least somebody should give him the benefit of the doubt.
