Mis-representative on my part: not 'Lacan does language games' but language is our new focus.
You had odds and sods of metaphysics, yeah - but both Heidegger and Bergson didn't become popular till a bit later I think. Either way, they're from very different worlds to Lacan. Metaphysics proceeding from psychanalysis rather than philosophy.
Lacan was a psychoanalyst (or a theorist thereof); Descartes was a mathematician - both have metaphysical points to make. Really, I don't see it as any more difficult than that.
