Pi to computer gaming?

Hey guys :D

I was wondering if it is possible to set up my Pi so I can connect to my main pc through a wireless connection (etc Teamviewer ) and use games without having any type of lag?

Will there be really bad video quality, or any downsides at all doing this ?

As a mater of fact I tried doing this with GTA 3 on my PC and mirror to my Pi.
All Got was was my desktop as it only mirrors desktop.
My game was in full screen when I forced it into windowed mode the Pi VNC Client Crashed.
It was either the VNC, My PC Graphics Card or the Pi Graphics.

I don't think team viewer would be much different.
But don't lose hope it's worth a try! :D
