The Academy of Interactive Arts and Sciences had their 13th annual awards show in Las Vegas last night, and Uncharted 2: Among Thieves walked away with ten of the thirty awards for the night, including Adventure game of the year and Overall game of the year. The game, released in October of 2009, has sold over 3 million copies as of this month, and with a potential "Game of the Year" edition, it's likely to sell a whole lot more.
