This is my list of current game companies that impress me:
Matrix
Ageod
Storm Eagle Studios
Lead Pursuit
XSI
Digital Combat Simulator
Tripwire Interactive
Thunder-Works

I know some of them haven't even released a finished product, but they are the only people out there producing "high fidelity" combat fastjet sims.

PD

Tripwire Interactive and Taleworlds are both good at customer communication.

*Edit* Ahh! I'm the second person to up TW!

I think that HPS Simulations deserves mention as one of the better game publishers. Their committment to their products is the reason that I say this. They continue to support & update their games that are in some cases 8-9 years old. They also respond to emails very quickly (often within 24 hours) if you encounter a problem with one of their games.

Any hated companies?:hmm:

I think every Sierra game I bought (old school sierra) had some pretty bad bug issues.

Old Dynamix. Those people made some of the best flight simulators ever, and they were ALL unforgettable. I still play Red Baron 3D to this day, and I'm not planning on retiring any time soon.
