What is the name of the OS?

I like to just think of it as "The Amiga Experience."

You don't need IO.SYS, MSDOS.SYS, or COMMAND.COM, just a boot sector that loads *something.*

On a floppy disk? I think you need to have those 3 files written to get a bootable floppy using the format /s command IIRC.

Can't think of any games that circumvented this as games run in dos and therefore a dos bootdisk requires those 3 files to get going and do 'something' I  am guessing.

To get an MS-DOS bootdisk, yes, it needs those files.  Bootable games that ran on DOS would've had them, but there are things besides games that boot from floppy.  Some utilities are written from scratch and don't use those DOS files, and then there are Linux boot floppies which have no use for them as well.
