Is it possible to setup remote play for PC games

1

Specifically, is it possible for a desktop with a decent graphics card (say suitable for Eve Online combat at laptop resolution), to provide remote play to a laptop on wifi or 4G?

I took a run at this about a decade ago but found VNC delivered a black rectangle for any OpenGL.

Have things changed? I've noted the PS3 can serve some games to a vita, but I've not tried it.

1Lag is a worry - but finding fast wifi is a different question. – spdegabrielle – 2014-02-09T10:00:50.210

Indeed this might be fun just round the house on WIFI. – spdegabrielle – 2014-02-09T10:09:22.457

BTW the wii-u has almost no range...you can use the game pad in the next room if you are lucky. – spdegabrielle – 2014-02-09T10:10:16.913

FWIW the laptop involved is a late 2009 15'MBP with integrated graphics that are not suitable for gaming. – spdegabrielle – 2014-02-09T10:26:42.867

Is there a way to make the question 'community' editable? I don't care for the points. – spdegabrielle – 2014-02-09T10:28:52.953

Try to connect to desktop computer with cable, because i doubt that you will have nice picture with more than 1-2 fps... Try program like Radmin... I am very interested how will you work this out :) – Davidenko – 2014-02-11T06:21:47.710

I believe this is possible using a software based solution, and not only from your PC / Mac but from your tablet / phone.
