Sarah Silverman has certain aspirations for a perfect Valentines Day, and apparently those mostly revolve around trash-talking her boyfriend while playing "Modern Warfare 2." Check out the clip above, wherein Sarah extols the brilliance of "Call of Duty," as well as her love of "GoldenEye." Yes, she keeps getting better and better.

The initial teaser trailer for "Sonic the Hedgehog 4" showed brief snaps of gameplay in between taunting text. That's no fun at all. Thankfully the internet will not be denied, and today an intrepid soul posted a solid minute and a half of the game actually running. You can watch that video below:

The latest "God of War 3" trailer, which you can enjoy above, is titled "Vengeance." The title relates to the fact that Kratos, the series' protagonist, can't seem to let the whole murdered-family-and-ruined-life thing go. In "God of War 3" he'll continue his climb to the top of Mount Olympus, but this time he's got the help of the Titans, who are equally pissed off.

According to the "2010 Guiness Book of World Records: Gaming Edition," Lil Poison is the world's youngest professional gamer. That's quite an accomplishment, especially when you consider that he's held the title since he was 6.

Well, he's 11 now and he's a beast when it comes to "Halo 3," but what about "Big Buck Safari"? Lil Poison, whose real name is Victor De Leon III, came into the MTV Newsroom to take on the Big Buck Challenge, and he did pretty damn well, especially when you consider that he had never played the game before and had to aim up to actually hit the screen. You can see his performance up top.

After an extremely information-free teaser, "Fallout: New Vegas" finally started to take shape with its first full trailer, which you can enjoy at the top of this post. I was a big fan of "Fallout 3" (my Game of the Year in 2008) and happily gorged on the copious amounts of DLC that Bethesda spoon-fed the world, and it looks like the next game will stay true to the franchise.

Tim Gunn of TV's "Project Runway" knows quite a bit about the world of fashion. Video games...not so much, as evidenced by his enthusiastic but ultimately less than exemplary performance on "Big Buck Safari" (pictured). But he does seem to have an opinion on Super Mario's classic overalls and work boots. We sat down with him to get his take on the gaming world's most famous look. By the way, this may be my favorite video ever:

GDC may be the nerdier younger brother of E3, but that doesn't make it any less awesome. I actually prefer GDC for its slower pace, quieter halls and better access to developers. It's also home to my favorite gaming awards show, the Independent Gaming Festival, which highlights the best and brightest in the indie development scene.

But I wouldn't say GDC is really high on "spectacle." At least not until GDC 2010 rolls around. Behold the new hype-tastic commercial from the guys at Mega64.

Square Enix has released a new trailer for "Final Fantasy XIII" which features the song "My Hands" by Leona Lewis. The footage offers mostly pre-rendered cutscenes, but about halfway through there's a good chunk of gameplay thrown in for good measure. It's also using the English language voice actors, so it's a good opportunity to familiarize yourself with the voices that'll absorb your life for several dozen hours. You can watch the trailer after the break:

Clearly someone over at Activision knows a thing or two about what the kids like, so they've gone and melded the two most popular franchises on the planet right now: "Call of Duty" and "Twilight." Yes, you never thought it would happen, but the day is finally here. Screw "God of War." Screw "Natal." This is the future. Trailer after the break!

Mark Hamill has been making the rounds in video games lately. First was his brilliant revival of The Joker in "Batman: Arkham Asylum," and just last week he appeared as a bastard of a demon in "Darksiders: Wrath of War." You may think that Luke Skywalker may just be taking video game gigs to pay the bills, but the truth is that he's also quite the gamer himself. Check out the video up top, where Hamill dishes on his first video game experience.
