This week is no different, with <em>Skyrim</em> taking top honors at the Academy of Interactive Arts &amp; Sciences 15th Annual Interactive Achievement Awards in Las Vegas last evening.<br /><br />The studio took home five awards in total for the dragon-infested, open-world RPG, alongside fellow multiple award winners <em>Uncharted 3</em> and <em>Portal 2</em>. We've dropped a full list of winners after the break, but before you head there allow us to be outraged for you that <em>Skyward Sword</em> didn't win any awards. Outrage! How could they? Etc.<p><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2012/02/10/skyrim-snags-another-best-of-show-award-at-15th-annual-aias-awar/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Skyrim snags another best of show gong at 15th annual AIAS awards</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.joystiq.com"><img src="http://www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Joystiq" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2012/02/10/skyrim-snags-another-best-of-show-award-at-15th-annual-aias-awar/">Skyrim snags another best of show gong at 15th annual AIAS awards</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.joystiq.com">Joystiq</a> on Fri, 10 Feb 2012 10:45:00 EST.

If you couldn't make it out to Vegas for <a href="http://www.dicesummit.org/">the DICE Summit</a> earlier this year (and <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/tag/dice-2011/">our in-depth coverage</a> wasn't in enough depth for you), worry not -- Xbox Live has your back. By going to the GamerTV channel in the Video Marketplace, you can watch <a href="http://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2011-04-01-aias-awards-and-d-i-c-e-sessions-on-xbox-live">parts of the Academy of Interactive Achievement awards show, as well as highlighted sessions</a> from the summit for free. Interactive entertainment-related sessions from Richard "Lord British" Garriott, the director of <em>Kung Fu Panda</em>, and oceanographer Dr. Dave Gallo are all available for viewing.<br />
<br />
Not included: the expensive Las Vegas hotel room and overpriced buffet you would have if you were there live. But you can watch the awards show itself, and see <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2011/02/11/mass-effect-2-wins-goty-rpg-story-awards-at-dice-2011/">some of your favorite games </a>win those AIAS awards all over again.<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.joystiq.com"><img src="http://www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Joystiq" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2011/04/02/aias-awards-and-dice-sessions-now-available-on-xbox-live/">AIAS Awards and DICE sessions now available on Xbox Live</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.joystiq.com">Joystiq</a> on Sat, 02 Apr 2011 22:00:00 EST.
