On the heels of the AIAS awards comes the announcement that the Skyrim soundtrack has been nominated by the International Film Music Critics Association.
The score has been recognized in the category of “Best Original Score for a Video Game or Interactive Media.” The winner is set to be announced at the show on February 23, 2012.
For a full list of the nominees, head to the IFMCA site. And if you dug the Skyrim soundtrack, don’t forget you can still grab a 4 CD set of the music on DirectSong.
The Academy of Interactive Arts and Sciences held their award show last night at the DICE conference, and Skyrim took home five trophies, including Game of the Year.
The awards are voted on by the 20,000 members of the AIAS. In addition to the top honor, the distinguishments included Best Story, Role-playing/MMO Game of the Year, Outstanding Achievement in Gameplay Engineering, Outstanding Achievement in Game Direction.
Congrats to the team!

Head over to the BAFTA site and cast your vote. The awards will stream live on Friday, March 16 at www.bafta.org.

Original post: Following the PC patch, the 1.4 update for Skyrim is now live for Xbox 360 users. For the full list of changes, you can reference this blog post.
