Still, I do have the ocassional difficult side-quest searching out rock en español that's as good as the stuff I'm used to hearing in English ... but that ties into my thoughts on the British Class System the relative absence of middle-brow culture in the Spanish-speaking world and again neither here nor there.

After accepting a side-quest, you have to drive for a couple of minutes to get to the location where it occurs; if you then fail the mission, you have to drive all the way back again to re-acquire it.

I've begun a habit where if I come across a side-quest that I don't find to be enjoyable; instead of leaving it, and coming back later, the NPC just gets a face full of high-speed projectile junk.
