I want know on which games I can use a resolution higher than 800x600
without losing good graphics.

Thief and Battlezone are games that I can think of off the top of my
head that don't require a z-buffer.  1024x768 doesn't always work to
well in them since a single V2 wasn't designed to run at that res.

Tombraider 2, and I think 3, also let you tuen of the z-buffer.
There's a flight sim too...  forget which.
However, turning off z-buffer in TR2 makes the bad clipping problems
even worse.  Not worth the trade-off.  Haven;t tried in any other
games.
