I feel it's only right if I chime in here.
I am fairly new to Android so I don't know about day one but I wrote
Tank Recon 3D for the BlackBerry originally and released it back in
April 2010. I ported the game to Android and released it mid July of
this year. The game finally got featured on BlackBerry about 2 weeks
ago at the same time as Google featured it. If the name Lone Dwarf Game
Inc doesn't give it away, I am a one man team.
I for one have been extremely happy with how I have been treated by Google.

see "featured" are those by big name companies (including Google
themselves) that steal all the attention and really don't need the
promotional help to begin with.

Granted, most of those companies I've not really heard of, so I can't
say for sure whether they are "big guys," but it seems reasonably
balanced to me.
And not a Google app in sight. ;)
