Uncharted 2 Brings Home AIAS Game of the Year Honors; Category Winners Inside

None

If you haven’t played Uncharted 2: Among Thieves yet, you owe it to yourself to go out and play through it this weekend.

If my recommendation isn’t enough to persuade you, maybe the fact the game won 9 AIAS Awards at DICE 2010 last night , including Game of the Year and best original story, is enough to get you off your ass and over to the game store.

Batman: Arkham Asylum and Scribblenauts also brought in a nice haul of hardware. The complete list of winners is featured below.
