Uncharted 2 nabs 15 award nominations

21.01.2010
The Academy of Interactive Arts and Sciences has its nominees for their 13th annual awards show lined up and Uncharted 2: Among Thieves is sitting pretty with 15 nominations.

Assassin's Creed II clocks in with 10 nominations over Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2's nine, followed by Batman: Arkham Asylum with eight. Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction and Brutal Legend round out the top nominees with four apiece.

The Overall Game of the Year category unsurprisingly is made up of Uncharted 2, Assassin's Creed II, Batman, Modern Warfare 2, and Dragon Age: Origins. Far more interesting is the competition in the Outstanding Achievement in Portable Game Design category; Henry Hatsworth in the Puzzling Adventure is a definite underdog along side fellow nominees Scribblenauts, Patapon 2, LocoRoco 2, and LittleBigPlanet.

The 13th Annual Academy of Interactive Arts and Sciences awards show kicks off at DICE 2010 next month. Find the full list of nominees and categories .
