At an event held last night at Sydney's Kit and Kaboodle, IGN.com celebrated their second annual IGN Select Awards with Uncharted 2: Among Thieves taking home the award for Best Console Game of 2009.

Hosted by IGN's Tristan Ogilvie and Clara Barraza of IGN's The Aussie Source, the event brought together members of the Australian video gaming industry to celebrate and award the successes of 2009, and we're pleased to report the PlayStation team scooped a dazzling four awards across multiple categories.

As well as Best Console Game, Uncharted 2: Among Thieves also took home The IGN SELECT Award, Editor's Choice and Best Visual Design.

Other winners on the night included Batman: Arkham Asylum for Best Newcomer, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 for Best Online/Multiplayer Game and Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars for Best Handheld Game.

The consumer voted IGN Select Awards celebrate the world of gaming from a local perspective giving you, the Australian public, the chance to have your say about the biggest and best games from around the world. IGN.com readers were asked to vote for their favourite games across 10 categories.

As Cam Shea, IGN Games Editor explains: "Clearly IGN readers are as passionate about games as we are; they've highlighted a very deserving selection for this year's Select Awards." Cam continues: "This year's winners prove that modern video games offer something for everyone, and that the quality of game design only continues to rise.

"This is particularly exemplified by our overall Select Award winner - Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, which was just a notch above everything else in 2009. Our readers loved it for its roguish yet loveable characters, its naturalistic, banter-filled dialogue, its incredible action set pieces and its jaw-dropping graphics. Congratulations to the game's developer Naughty Dog - we're sure this will be the first of many Select Awards for you!"

Thanks to the guys at IGN.com and their readers for supporting the PlayStation platform and allowing games like Uncharted 2 receive the recognition they so well deserve.
