Ugh, Devil May Cry was always horrible to me. Capcom should stick to Megaman games, they straight pooped on Resident Evil with RE6 (and to a certain extent 5)
Nah Heavy Rain isn't Dragon's Lair... at least to my knowledge.

It's rather interesting actually, it's a 3rd person mystery game with 4 different characters you play through as and every decision you make effects how each story plays out. The gameplay is more like you figure out certain movements with the controller to kind of "flow" the story, as opposed to quicktime events which are do-or-die, your mistakes on the controls don't cause you to die it just changes what happens in the story... I'm not sure how to explain it because I haven't played it. I think the big deal about it is that they made that style of gameplay actually... interesting. I'm definitely gonna check it out.
If you like action adventure I'm sure you'd like Assassin's Creed, the first one is a little repetitive, yet worth it... but 2 & Brotherhood were AMAZING games. Revelations was awesome too, but they didn't add too much besides change the setting. The storylines really draw you in. I haven't played 3 yet, but I can definitely recommend the other 4 of them.
There's also the Arkham games, I'm sure you've played those. Amazing games.
...and then there's my favorite adventure game of the past few years... Red Dead Redemption. That game is beyond awesome. No explanation needed.
Dead Space 1 & 2 (haven't played 3) are good action-horror type games as well. Really good.
Nintendo is awesome. Their first party games are some of the best.... but I just can't warrant buying a console for like 4 or 5 series. That's what it's come to with them. I own a Wii, yeah, but it never gets played unless I have my old lady over and she wants to play Wii Sports Resort (the game that comes with the thing...), or a friend wants to play Mario Kart or Smash Bros... there's just not too much depth to the Wii. Whereas Gamecube had plenty of stuff I could spend hours on... Viewtiful Joe, Sonic Adventure 2, Paper Mario Thousand Year Door, Wind Waker, etc
When it comes to platformers it's hard to beat Mario, but there have been some contenders lately, that 2-D sidescroller Rayman Origins that came out like last year or something is AWESOME. Definitely worth the play, forget all Rayman prejudice because of the stupid rabbits.
Also, this is way off-topic and I'm rambling.
