I think perhaps you should check out setting up a VPN...

PLaying Lan games over internet wont work. I tried with Age of mythology, Quake 3, and Warcraft 3.

In all cases the game does not show up in the lan browser, and when Specified IP specifically (vpn ip, I checked) the game sitll would not work. I believe these netqwork gaming programmers deliberately do not bind their gaming protocals over vpn connections.
