Love: Innovation in smaller budget games and retro games making a comeback. For example last year Terraria, Catherine, El Shaddai, To the moon, Dark souls were all very welcome surprises.
Hate: Action (and shooting) becoming the main focus of big budget titles. It ruined Dragon age for me and to a lesser extent Mass Effect as well. Batman AC was good but my hands ended up hurting from all the fighting all the time. Good pacing is dead nowadays, good writing is even further to be found.
