Well, I wondered about that myself, and used a neat little screen-capture
program called grabber to check this on a number of shareware games. Most of
the games I tried it on, such as Jazz Jackrabbit, Epic Pinball, Aladdin,
Hocus Pocus, etc. all use ModeX. The only ones that used MCGA were Raptor and
Halloween Harry.
