The 7th Annual Interactive Achievement Awards was the 7th edition of the Interactive Achievement Awards, an annual awards event that honored the best games in the video game industry during 2003. The awards were arranged by the Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences (AIAS), and were held at the Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas, Nevada on March 4, 2004 (2004-03-04). It was also held as part of the Academy's 2004 D.I.C.E. Summit. It was hosted by Diane Mizota.[1][2]
The craft awards for "Outstanding Achievement in Character Performance" for males and females were introduced along with the "Outstanding Achievement in Soundtrack." Separate console awards for "Action Sports" and "Sports Simulation" were offered. Separate awards for "Children's Title of the Year" and "Family Game of the Year" would be offered for both console and computer; however, there were not any finalists named for "Computer Children's Title of the Year". "Wireless Game of the Year" would be offered in addition to "Handheld Game of the Year". The computer award for "Downloadable Game of the Year" was introduced. "Online Gameplay of the Year" was not offered.[3]
Call of Duty won the top award of the ceremony for "Game of the Year". Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time received the most nominations and won the most awards. Electronic Arts received the most nominations, won the most awards, published the most nominated games, and published the most award-winning games. There was also a tie for two categories: "Outstanding Achievement in Character Performance - Female" and "Console Family Game of the Year". The Sims had two award-winning releases, with The Sims Bustin' Out tying for "Console Family Game of the Year" and The Sims: Superstar expansion winning "Computer Simulation Game of the Year".
