Sony Ericsson W890i Are you game?

With the arrival of Nokia's N-Gage gaming arena, games are getting richer, more clever and more popular with mobile users. Not to be outdone, Sony Ericsson has pre-loaded three excellent games on the W890i; SIMS 2, Lumines Block Challenge, and Tennis Multiplay. The strongest of the bunch is arguably the SIMS series - known to millions of PC gamers around the world - which sees you take control of a virtual person or ‘Sim' whom you're responsible for guiding through the trials and tribulations of everyday life. It's like playing God, but without the long hours. Despite being scaled down to mobile format, SIMS 2 loses none of its magic and translates really well to the W890i.

Lumines Block Challenge is a fun, addictive puzzle game of the Tetris mould that also boasts a cracking soundtrack. Sega's Tennis Multiplay (aka Sony Ericsson WTA Tour) sees you take on various female tennis players on the circuit as you strive to better your ranking and stats by winning various tournaments. The game play is engaging enough, while trying to overcome the likes of Lindsay Davenport - helluva backhand - makes Tennis Multiplay a challenging addition to the mobile gaming world.
