<p>Remember <em>Overstrike,</em> the EA title mentioned at last year&#8217;s E3 event (it&#8217;s ok if you need a second to think about it, you&#8217;re probably not the only one)? It&#8217;s still being worked upon as EA&#8217;s Frank Gibeau explained to <a href="http://www.computerandvideogames.com/353774/ea-explains-overstrike-e3-no-show/">CVG</a>. He commented that Insomniac, the team behind <em>Overstrike</em>&#8216;s development, is being especially cautious of the game&#8217;s progress and stated &#8220;We&#8217;re very excited about <em>Overstrike</em>. It&#8217;s a new IP and we want to make it the right game, so they&#8217;re taking some extra time to nail the gameplay and the quality. It felt like we would stand out better later in the summer once we&#8217;ve hit some key milestones and we&#8217;re able to show off more.&#8221;</p>
<p><em>Overstrike</em>, a multiplayer shooter title, was originally shown off during E3 2011 but has been under wraps until now.</p>
