The Academy of Interactive Arts and Sciences (AIAS) handed out their 7th annual awards last night at the D.I.C.E Summit in Las Vegas. Not surprisingly, Ubisoft's Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time was almost as big a winner as Return of the King was on Sunday, taking home 8 of the coveted awards. With voting performed only by members of the video game industry, the AIAS awards are similar to that of the film industry's academy awards.

From the AIAS web site:

These peer-based awards are dedicated to recognizing the outstanding products, talented individuals and development teams that have contributed to the advancement of the $30 billion worldwide entertainment software industry. No person may become a voting member of the Academy unless he or she can demonstrate a threshold level of experience and professional credits in the industry.

A list of all winners of the awards has been published on Gamespot.
