You really fuss this much over a melody? A melody is like a concept, a rough design, takes a few minutes maybe to hammer out; most of the work is in the variations, modulations, and all of the accompanying harmonies and rhythms - the implementation, so to speak.
There are pretty simple guidelines for a good melody; stay in key/mode (or follow standard modulations), use more small intervals than big leaps, have some idea of what your chord progression is going to be and make sure you include consonant notes (unless you really know what you're doing).
I'd say the third one might have some potential, notwithstanding the supersaw which I thought died years ago, but it all depends on what you do with it. The others are totally undanceable and sound vaguely VGMish (IMO).
