Default RIP or not

When adding new games, maybe you could make it clear if the game is a RIP and if so, what exactly is missing(speech? videos?), should that be known. I think that would be very useful information and haven´t seen that mentioned anywhere so far.

I also think it should be the norm.

I'm sure it's mentioned for some games. On the other hand, someone may contribute an archive without any explanations, so nobody's aware if it's a rip.

I agree with you, Japo. In my mind, there should be an icon indicating that the game is a rip. It would go in the area where the XP and MS-DOS icons currently are placed. Even though it wouldn't be as blatantly obvious as appending to the beginning of each review of a game that's been ripped saying, "DISCLAMER: This game is ripped from the original source media," it would still indicate in a fairly prominent place that the game is a rip.
