My list would be.
1) The overall lack of platformers on all platforms.
2) The surge of Guitar Hero, Rock Band, and mediorce clones such as Rock Revolution and Ultimate Band.
3) The mainstream approval of downloadable content, either it's new maps, new songs, and new characters that should be included in the game.
4) The surge of first person and third person shooters. We have this great technology that produces realistic visuals yet consumers seem content with using it to display zombie, alien and nazi death animations.
5) The button abuse. Gamers seem to complain about "waggle fests" but it's counter-intuitive to have to use one of 16 buttons at any time in a game.
Pixel Art can be fun.
