    I would like to know if it would be a good or bad idea to give parallels all 4 gigs of memory. I will be using Parallels to play the games that aren't supported for Mac so it would be best if I gave it the most amount of memory possible for running games.
    I wont need the Mac side if Im running games so its not like Mac will need the memory.

    Question is, how much RAM you have in total?

    Even if you are not running anything on OS X, OSX itself and Parallels still takes quite a bit of RAM, you should leave at 2 GB for the host system.
