Only the badly designed ones.
They don't need to. Enable v-sync.
That’s still 60 times a second on my iPhone and 120 on my Samsung
Competently done games have vsync and also a fps limiter.
They also decouple game logic and input from drawing :)
And then we have those that thing "OMG BIGGER FPS" is better and burn your video card when they render the startup menu at 1480 fps...
