The issue with streaming games would be some noticeable lag. Some people claim to not notice any lag at all, while others swear by it. I guess it depends on what kind of games - if such games are very dependent on ping times (like competitive online fps shooters, etc..), then it would be an issue.
Looked into it more last night, and found an alternative:
http://www.amazon.com/Steam-Link-Pc/dp/B...steam+link
Might do this with either my line adapter, or buy an AC router. (I currently have dual band N)
I don't really care about Shield's Android TV stuff, I pay over $100/month for Silver tier cable with 2 DVRs and 2 other boxes. I'm already paying for my content and don't see a reason to stream anything beyond On Demand. (not to mention my TVs are smart tvs anyway and I've never used that)
I don't game much anymore, but it looks like the Steam Link does that in pretty easy fashion and I have 3-4 Xbox 360 wireless controllers gathering dust.
