Now here’s a sight for sore eyes. Online iPhone FPS Archetype is rocking some rather impressive screenshots, and promises up to ten-player deathmatches over the web.

The Quake III-styled blaster is a multiplayer only shooter with five maps, six weapons, and two grenade types. With five-on-five battles, you can be up and running and taking on your entire friend list in moments.

In a nod to Call of Duty, Archetype gives you EXP for winning games, allowing you to rank up and unlock achievements to prove to your buds that you’re the best blaster of them all.

Other killer features include complete control customisation, and offline tutorial mode, and spiffy high-res visuals designed exclusively for gamers sporting the iPhone 4.

Archetype will let you play against online opponents over wi-fi, 3G or even Edge, but wi-fi will no doubt give you best experience. Lag and FPS don’t make the easiest bedfellows.

You can grab Archetype on iPhone and iPod touch right now for £1.79 / $2.99 / €2.39.
