    Can someone please tell me the name of the arcade game that Escape from CyberCity was based on?

    Thanks!

    A cursory search through Google says that it's based on the game Freedom Fighter, which is based on the anime Galaxy Express 999.

    (Seriously, this took 10 seconds to find out.)

    and it not only uses footage from the original Galaxy Express, but it also uses footage from its follow-up, Adieu Galaxy Express 999 as well

    Thanks for the info. And the gentle, parenthetical scolding.

    So a video game titled Escape from CyberCity uses footage from the anime Galaxy Express 999 but doesn't use footage from the anime Cyber City. Makes sense.

    I picked this game up a few months back. Does anyone know if this game is compatible with the light gun revolver? I would assume it is, but I want to be sure before I buy one.
