Yeah... and the fact that although I've put over 80 hours into the game I still find areas that I've never seen/noticed before. I also like just spinning my tires listening to radio - the K-Rose DJ is a riot as are CTR and DST. I hit that "teepee motel" the other day and thought "I should have noticed that before" ;^) There are some "hobbies" that could be fun but are hampered by the limitations of the generation. For example Sky Diving could be a tremendous waste of time but the draw distance is so limited you never get that sense of "seeing everything". Also there are some omissions that are just frustrating - for example why can't I shoot from the JetPack normally? I can in one mission, why not afterwards? I'd love to hover over the world blasting the odd pedestrian now and again.
