Good luck running build engine games at 800x600. DosBox works great, but you usually have to accept lower resolution/performance than you could get on a decent Pentium.
I fired up Blood for the first time since getting my new computer, and I was rather surprised to see that I could push it to 1600x1200 at 30 FPS at least.

Weird, my performance was rather poor above 640 x 480. Either way, my point stands that there certainly are games that benefit on real hardware.
Also strange, I had no problems running EOTB 3 on DosBox via the GOG release. System Shock 1 ran fine for me too, but with somewhat poor performance at 640 x 480 (and above if you installed a fan patch).

Well EOTB 3 would run yes. But then there was audio issues. This was several years ago, so who knows. Maybe they've fixed it by now.
