£1.39 / $1.99, with the Summer of Slaughter DLC being 19p / 39c.
I'd be very surprised if the Summer Sale doesn't start tomorrow, considering it's Independence Day next week. If it does, you'll have to bear with me while I update each day. Typing all this up takes a while!

Please tell me you're not actually writing up every available sale.
The other is the Command & Conquer franchise. All C&C games on Steam are 75% off. In no set order: C&C 3: Tiberium Wars - £3.74 / $7.49 C&C 3: Kane's Wrath - £2.49 / $4.99 C&C 4: Tiberian Twilight - £3.74 / $4.99 Red Alert 3 - £3.74 / $4.99 Red Alert 3: Uprising - £2.49 / $4.99
£1.24 / $1.49. It's like Breakout, only with wizards. And a plot. Yeah, it's kinda weird.
The game is really excellent, actually. Because Breakout clones are generally shitty or at the very least only half-decent, I feel like Wizorb is being done a disservice by being called "like Breakout", even though it IS "like Breakout".
Wizorb is a Breakout game the same way Sequence is a Rhythmn game, I'd say that Wizorb combines enough action-RPG elements into the mix to make it a genre mash-up of sorts, or at least a Breakout clone with action-RPG elements to it. It's a Breakout game in which you fight monsters, engage in boss fight scenarios, collect potions, cast spells, and walk around on a retro-style overworld map. It's weird, but it's also actually really really good. I really suggest people watch the trailer and see for themselves, the game has a very high production value for one of these retro-style games, with excellent spritework and well thought-out design.
So yeah, "like Breakout", but I feel like this throws a lot of cool things into the mix that make it a worthwhile entity on its own.
If you're even mildly curious about Duke Nukem Forever, it will never be cheaper than it currently is on Green Man Gaming. £3.74 / $4.99. It's not a fantastic game, but I'd say it's about worth that particular price.
There's also a 25% off all games code you can enter at the checkout as well - it's 25OFF-ALLTH-EGAME. I don't know if you can use it in combination with Duke Forever, but it's worth a shot! I DO know you can use it on the Quantum Conundrum Season Pass (the game and the two forthcoming DLC) to make it just over £10/$15. Sweet.
The Daily Deal is...
£2.49 / $3.99. I can assure you that this is not an Angry Birds rip-off. It's a platformer where you play a 'forest creature' who needs to carry (and occasionally throw) their lost offspring to safety.

Oooh, an even BETTER game than yesterday!
You call this a platformer, but it's DEFINITELY not a straight-up platformer by any means. This game sort of looks like a puzzle platformer, but it is FAR more puzzle than platformer. Though it controls a bit like a platformer, actual platforming skills aren't actually emphasized at all. Reflex challenges are not the name of the game here.
If you like puzzle games, you really can't do much better than Offspring Fling. It's a fantastic little game with excellent SNES-level spritework and well thought-out puzzle design. It comes highly recommended.
My last count of all my games was around 1,200, give or take. That's a frankly absurd amount that I've barely even played half of, and I don't expect the Summer Sale to help.

I'd hate to admit it, but I have given up on my backloggery.
...it does end on a cliffhanger with no second part
So from what I gather, only half of the PC version has been released, while the DS version is the whole game but is scaled down and doesn't have voice acting. Is this correct?
If you go on Amazon, they've got a bunch of Steam-activatable games on the cheap. On a similar note, I don't want the Kayne and Lynch 2 key I got in my bundle of codes, and I can't even give the damn thing away. No, really.

Hmm . Have you tried the Classifieds topic on GOG ?
For the record, this contains Burn Zombie Burn! and its soundtrack, as well as All Zombies Must Die!, its DLC Scorepocalypse and its OST. And yes, they're all on offer individually as well.
The upcoming bundles look like they'll be nice(AAAs) when the sale finally kicks off, but the individual game sales.... not so much(all games they've had as dailies in the past few months). If the leaked list is accurate.

He'll probably do the highlights and the main sale stuff.
(Thats what I would do if I was doing what he was doing)
£1.99 / $2.49.
And I was all geared up for it too...
Okay, Valve is definitely trollin'.
1.69, whatever your currency (grr). It's not a great game, but probably just about worth that.
Midweek Madness is a twofer!
First, Rock of Ages. TotalBiscuit likes it, and so should you. £2.37 / $3.39.
The other is the Command & Conquer franchise. All C&C games on Steam are 75% off. In no set order:

Red Alert 3 - £3.74 / $4.99
Red Alert 3: Uprising - £2.49 / $4.99
No bundles, apparently.
Today's Daily Deal is...
£6.39 / $6.99 (hmm). Interestingly, these aren't available separately, so it's the whole bundle or nothing.
The first two are awesome. The third one... not so much. Might actually... [Scribbles note down]
£1.49 / $1.99. All I know is that this is a tower defence game, which means I will hate it. Beyond that..?
Weekend Deal is...
Half price at £14.99 / $19.99, and still far too expensive.
especially in Europe at 22.50 €.
What ELSE could go wrong

I agree. I bought and completed it even though I hate breakout games.

There's not many games you haven't played DM, never heard of Insecticide.
You can keep your fascist circles! Also four years ago I was not too far off from living under an actual rock, making dandruff portraits to get by.
Heh heh.
HEH HEH HEH.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!
...ah, I needed that. Thank you.
(Seriously, I haven't played about 75% of the games I own on Steam. I'm a massive sucker for sales.)
Shucks! Don't I feel a right plantain.
I have an unholy backlog as well, doing my best to stop adding to it. Improved results so far. Summer Sale will be a true test of character!
I'd hate to admit it, but I have given up on my backloggery.

That was only taking into account the active games I have. (And its horribly outdated)
Overall, I probably have about the same, if not more games to play than even you! XD
They should meme me.
