I'm getting some crucial ballistix @ 1066 for 160 bucks per 2 gig pack supposed to be an awesome OC'er. I'd assume it would also be great for games.

Crutial Ballistix is some top notch Memory, Personally I would get their DDR2 800 and overclock it.

Yep, New Egg has 2x1ig kit for like $80, and I can get it to 900mhz on 2.0volts

I tried OCZ 4gig dual and you have to set them to 800mhz. They run @ 667 out of the box.
Patriot makes a nice 4gig dual set and my system auto detected the correct settings - PCC24G6400ELK.

Hope you have a 64bit OS or you can forget about 4gb
