Almost a month after release, I'm still trying to decide which platform to buy this game for (or even whether to buy it at all this year.) I'd really like to get it for X-Box for the quicker load times and no memory card hassles, but I'm concerned about the gameplay and control (PS2 control has always seemed better to me) and about the various slowdown glitches that X-Box owners seem to experience.

I've read all the threads, but I'm curious what feedback anyone has who has played the game for the past month might have here. How is the control on the X-Box? How are the loading times on the PS2? Is slowdown the same on both systems (from recent threads I'm getting the impression that it is?) And are there any platform-specific glitches like last year that anyone is familiar with?

I know that most people must be getting tired of seeing this question posed, but I'm just hoping for a definite answer. Thanks!
