Now that I have your attention...
I got a payrise a while back,and kinda went nuts buying new games.Over the last 4 or so months I brought the following:
360:
Splinter Cell:Double Agent
Battlefield 2
LOTR:Battle for middle earth 2
GRAW
TH USA wasteland
DW5 empires
Gun
Prey
Perfect dark zero
Saints row
DOA 4
The outfit
Dead rising
PS2:
Suikoden 5
Kingdom Hearts 2
MK Armageddon
Now,my payrise came with more hours,so I cant finsh all these in time for the wii AND FFXII. So? What do I finish first?

I'd say finish Suikoden V and Kingdom Hearts 2 first, but maybe I should take my own advice? *looks at my backlog of games...*
I don't know much about the other games, but if I had an X360 I'd probably be playing some DOA with my friends.

Gun is pretty short. not even 20 hours. play that first, then return it, if possible.

Gonna be a fanboy here and say Suikoden V. A very good game and many hours to play before you actually beat the game. I believe that beating this game on your first playthrough will take longer then any FF game. I took close to 80 hours to beat it.
Second, I say Dead Rising or Dead or Alive, cause those are the only games I like on your list, I do not own a Xbox 360, so halve of these games I don't even know and I loathe the KH franchise and MK has died since it went 3D.

Most of the games on your list are pretty pick up and play games. Like DW5 : Empires (which is really fun, I must say.)
Anyways, RPG fans would mostly say Suikoden V and KH:2. Suikoden V is definitely one of the better games of the year, so I wouldn't pass up on it. DOA 4 is pretty...err...fluid. If you're a fan of more of the same, then you'll enjoy it. I enjoyed it quite a bit myself, but I never got too deep into it.
But yeah, first statement.

Suikoden V, then maybe Saints Row.
Sell that other crap and quit making terrible financial decisions. I know I'm gonna sound old, but dude, save that ##### while you can. I notice you're 19...you're at an age where your ass is gonna need money for all kind of unexpected costs way the hell soon. I wish I hadn't bought half the stupid crap I did when I was 17-20.

wait wait wait wait wait... back up. If you are having trouble with spending too much green, then the last thing in the world you should want is a girlfriend. Its simple, to save money buy an RPG or two and just hunker down with those and make it last you alittle bit. Then do the same alittle bit later..
girlfriends are more expensive than games, its been proven

This man speaks truth.
There's really no sin in having $500 in your checking account. A couple years down the raod when your ass has to pay for rent, (maybe college books), car payments, insurance for said car, the internet bill, the cable bill, the phone bill (even if you have them bundled, you still have to pay), and put food on the table for yourself and possibly a wife + kid, you'll be glad you didn't walk around buying Dead Rising 2 and such.

the key thing to do is save your money. You know occasionly go out and spoil yourself with a new rpg, but mabye not right when it comes out, mabye you wait a bit until the price goes down. You bargain buy and make sure to pick up something you know will keep you occupied for awhile. I still need to learn this myself as I spend WAY too much cash. But honestly, pick up the rpg's and sell back the rest.
