I use Sony Vegas. It is not the easiest editing program, but it is VERY powerful once you learn how to use it, and more importantly, is very stable compared with the other programs I have used.

As for playing back video files, I use many. Divx Plus, VLC, Window Media Player. I have not found one that plays everything perfectly. For instance VLC is the only one that consistently plays back subtitles correctly, but it screws up on playing back some videos WMP handles with easily.

GraphicsGale is good for editing sprites for 2D games. The best part about the program is the easily manageable palette. For anything other than 2D graphics, you'd want to use GIMP or Photoshop.

I've never done anything complicated with Sony Vegas; just basically trimming parts of videos. That is pretty simple but there's loads of other options that I haven't gotten into.
