In a piece of reassuring, though not terribly surprising news, Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception has received the Writers Guild of America award for Outstanding Achievement in Video Game Writing.
The news was revealed via Twitter, as game director Justin Richmond took a quick photo of writer Amy Hennig on-stage accepting the award from Patton Oswalt and Brad Bird.
Amy Hennig accepts the 2012 WGA Video Game Writing Award
Also shortlisted for the esteemed award: Assassin's Creed: Revelations, Batman: Arkham City, Brink, and the unusual inclusion of Mortal Kombat (presumably not for the storyline which appeared to condone violence against women).

Very well deserved :D. She also won the same award when Uncharted 2 released!
Unfortunately this is happend a few hours ago and there is thus no video of her accepting the award. You can see the acceptance speech for Uncharted 2 below though =
