Dear god yes. PS2 is almost unplayable at times. Long load times, loading during the levels, jittery frame rate, and general clunkiness not on the Xbox port which is quite smooth.
Usually if there's an Xbox port of a PS2 game, by default, isn't the Xbox version better on most games (as far as technical specs go)? That's what I've always thought, although I'm sure there are exceptions.
being an xbox owner, and always preferred xbox, ill just go ahead and say xbox is better, but i am biased.
Autobots. Roll out.
The only notable cases of multiplatform games being better on PS2 than Xbox are Hot Pursuit 2 and MGS2 Substance.
I recall the Grand Theft Auto games playing a bit better on the PS2. The Xbox ones were much better in pretty much every way other than control (mainly due to placement of the white/black buttons). Can't think of anything else other than what's been mentioned.
One thing I love about the xbox versions of games is the save times. Holy hell were those a breath of fresh air compared to the slow-as-molasses PS2 memory card save times. Thank god games like Ratchet & Clank found ways to hide them.
Did the port of Max Payne 2 clean things up at all or did it follow in line with the first (near unplayable) Max Payne?

BIG differences. Missing parts of levels, missing and low-res textures, clunky movement, awful honestly. Get the XBOX or PC games...
MP2 is just as bad, if not worse. In fact, I would say worse. I had some serious trouble even making it through the first few levels, due to the horrid movement
