Notes

  • Destruct-O-Match II was active from 2004 to 2008, and MAGAX: Destroyer II was likely released in 2006.[2] Could 2006 to 2008 be the bounds of when the list was last updated?
  • /games/play.phtml always redirects to /games/game.html with the same game_id.
  • /userinfo.phtml redirects to /settings/account.
  • /battledome/battledome.phtml redirects to /dome/index.phtml.
