Sublime Text 2 is like Java AWT - awful. Cross platform means mediocre. Literarily, because one will have to choose a common denominator. I have tried ST2 several times on OSX and never liked it. Even if TM2 is only an alpha release it feels much better than ST2. I've been using TM2 all day and I really like it. The new stuff comes to light when you start working with the text. Auto-complete, indentation, parsing, highlighting and find/replace are so much better and there are also lots of small nuggets such as multi-selection. It is apparent that the editor/engine part is much improved, more solid and snappy. I think TM2 will be great once it is released.
