With the weekend quickly rushing towards us, we felt it was time to kick back a little, stop thinking about work and look at a few games for the Nokia 5800. While we're not getting the full support of N-Gage behind us on the Nokia 5800 yet, there are still plenty of games worth getting hold of – but which are the best? That's what we're about to find out, so grab your Nokia 5800 and join us after the jump...
… still with us? Got your Nok charged to full? Then we'll begin:
Suduko Master
Belovd by commuters and the number crunchers on the train the world over, this latest version for the Nokia 5800 and other Series 60 devices takes full advantage of the new Nok's widescreen display. The game play never really gets the adrenalin buzzing through your veins but you're brain will get a good workout ready ahead of the weekend chillout.
Asphalt 4: Elite Racing
OK, now to get that blood pumping and the excitement level raised. This has to be one of the best arcade games around with this version offering six cities - Los Angeles, Dubai, Monte Carlo, New York, Paris and Shanghai – to race around in. There are also 28 cars and bikes on offer, each one under licence from real manufacturers. It's got everything you need form Bluetooth support to an online top score rankings card.

Checkers
If you're looking for something a little more sedate that you can play with others, then checkers is the logical option. It's a simple game that has been developed specifically for the Nokia 5800 and N97 touchscreens. This brand new version is another game that makes the most of the widescreen aspect of the Nokia 5800, allowing you play in Landscape or Portrait mode.
Boom Blox
This is still one of our favourite games right now. It's a cinch to play as you fire your cannon at various items on the screen, attempting to knock stuff off their platforms, while avoiding the nasty old skull blocks. You only have a certain number of shots to reach your target score. The fun bit comes with all the accessories that Boom Blox throws in: bombs that push blocks all over the place; magnets that pull them; and portals that teleport objects around the screen.
Check out our full review of Boom Blox.
