Mike Check Episode 56: Mark Check II
Thanks for the show Moike and Mark.
Still think if the sniper grazed more than Trump’s ear we wouldn’t be in this war. Vance is less retarded.
Furthermore, I’m observing that israel is currently being destroyed
Mark Collett’s weird skinflint nature on vidja is alien to me. Objectively 40 pound in the 1980’s for a game is just a total value loser vs games these days, even 70 pound (i don’t even believe this is common practice) is just normal inflation, plus you get a LOT more game these days than 40 pound atari cartridge.
He’s right about Macdonalds though.
Yeah I don’t care what anyone says, there are still great new games being made that are well worth the money. I’d rather pay 80 bucks for a game that I get 100 hours out of than spending that money on beer or food that will be gone and forgotten. I do have a policy of not pre-ordering anything though and I will wait for a few months for a sale for most games. Occasionally I’ll get a game on release if I know it will be good but it’s rare.
Ya, I have heard him complain about this before and started arguing with the video with how untrue this is. The average price for a AAA line game now is like 60-80 dollars. In 2000 it was 50$ – but the minimum wage was also 5.15$ and average annual income was $35,000. Now it is like 64k. The overall price of games has actually been going down relative to income. Same with consoles and every other electronic device. He is 100% verifiable wrong about this.
Man, games back then were so much more expensive when you consider the pay back then. I once bought a game that cost 80 dollars, 24 years ago! That would be like 140 dollars now
The reason America is fucked Is because Iran now has Russian satcom access and jamming,
You can’t go within 1600 miles of Iran without your equipment failing.
Yeah the Russian provide tanks in Iraq could shoot and scoot but the crews weren’t trained properly, if it was White men manning them like the same old models being used in Ukraine are just as effective as the fancy Abrams brick.
What Mark is saying about the tanks is only partially correct. Yes there was an advantage, but it wasn’t massive. The main difference was training, and maintenance. Most of Iraq’s tanks barely worked at all. They had been sanctioned and under a total no fly zone for ten years. No repair parts were coming from Russia either. Most of these tanks were like scrap metal and if they could fire at all, that was about the best they could do. The people operating them barely knew how to use them.
Tanks are now very vulnerable to drones and ieds, and new anti-tank weapons, as Lebanon is showing. They are not nearly as useful, but could still use used in a large formation attack and quick advances. It is Russia’s current battle strategy that makes them totally useless.
Yes good analysis, Russians are still using these ancient tanks to good effect in Ukraine.
I’ve said a few times, the soldiers being posted to Israel and Jordan are rescue and recovery forces. The mission profile “changed” to SF command when they landed with all their cargo planes. SF usually move in civies on commercial airlines who have a deal to quietly pick them up on the tarmac, The cargo planes are to evac spooks and destroy/remove classified tech. Delta is in control ergo it’s a rescue mission, Rangers are their muscle and 82nd etc is the QRF force. They aren’t invading anything in those numbers. It’s a show and rescue operation disguised as a… Read more »
Get excited for next round of cucked Iranian Diasporoids (who should be shot on sight for being traitors)
Hopefully they get it in the ankles like their former compatriots and get left to bleed out slowly.
Good tactical analysis on trump Mark.
He wanted to take Greenland.
He wanted to do Iran.
He also said “it would be an honor to take Cuba.”
He’s delusional.
Hey good to see ya Mark, UK may be our demented grandad in Oz but we still love ya.
Venezuela only “worked” because they paid the military to stand down, that’s pretty clear now. Trump’s CIA angels were all over that country, but the retard really thought that was due to competence or american superiority or something. Iran’s not so easy! LOL
No they didn’t “pay the military”, they just used standard US military tactics against an inferior opponent.
It’s only clear if you’re not a professional.
butthurt non professionals downvoting as usual instead of implementing an argument they don’t have.
Venezuela was beaner on beaner violence
With Iran they are actively going against a White country
If you want dancing in Iran, send in Kevin Bacon. What a gay fucking thing to say, Iran doesn’t allow dancing, fuck.
3 pound burger? What’s the problem, that’s like $15 of beef
How do you tell if a Scot is a MacDonald? Check his kilt for a double quarter pounder.
>6-7 pounds
WHOOOOOAH
Mark doing a console price analogy makes me feel seen (positive)
If the US had similar gas issues to the UK I’d have to sleep in the bushes next to work with the way everything is spread out here.
I think NZ economy is more fucked than uk
Watching from London
