**Melf** · 08-30-2005, 11:19 PM

As a programmer on some great Genesis games like Gargoyles and Spider-Man, Chris Shrigley has seen his fair share of software. Sega-16 recently chatted with him about his experiences with the console, as well as with the Sega CD. Read the full interview for all the juicy details!

Nice one.

Good review overall. And to think, I didn't even know who this guy was.

Lol! You sir, have a bloodhound's nose for typos!

Fixed!

A bit short but insightful nonetheless. I didn't know that making Sega CD's games was so much more of a pain compared to Genny programming. Melf's educating even when he's off work.

I have a quesion why did you interview this guy, im not insulting him, but why

Genesis Knight · 08-31-2005, 07:58 PM

I would guess because Sega-16's purpose is to be the ultimate resource for the console. And yes, that means reviews with people that may not have been the big stars of the era.

I plan to document anyone and everyone who had anything to do with the Genesis. Some will be more well-known than others, but they all have valuable contributions that should be shared.

Melf, have you had a chance to read over any of the posts made by Foodlebunny in the Bubsy 2 thread? He had some very interesting things to say about the development of Bubsy 1 and 2.. might make for an interesting interview if he was available to reveal more of the lurid Accolade madness.

I don't know any of those programmers or anyone who had to do with the genesis, so everything is new to me. I only know of the guy who made the music for streets of rage 2.

well then again Mr.Shrigley did program some of the best Genesis games so I guess it sort of makes sense.
