So you prefer their earlier work? I enjoyed Enslaved - quite a bit. My only complaint resides with the technical issues such as framerate slowdowns and technical glitches. I have not played Heavenly Sword yet, mainly because I only recently acquired my PS3 about a year ago, but it is on my list of games to get. I liked DmC and gave them points since they wanted to scale back in order to scale up, but there was much to be desired.

I would say Heavenly Sword had the advantage of being one of the first games I played and owned for this generation of consoles, so hard to say how it aged. At the time I was blown away by the character models. Enslaved was solid and I enjoyed it, but it felt more like a "good game" (nothing wrong with that) as opposed to a system show piece. Again, that has to do with when a game is released as well.
On DmC, you could argue it was perfectly competent in many departments (exception being invisible enemy glitch I ran into several times). My main issue was I didn't like the characters at all (and I liked them in HS and Enslaved) and overall it suffered from expectations of being at the end of a system life cycle and carrying weight of being a Devil May Cry entry.
If I had to score them I'd go - Heavenly Sword (8.5) Enslaved (8.0) DmC (7.0) at this point. If you can find any for sub $20 worth a play through.
