Just paste this nifty applet (created by TMNT from the #ValveArg2-Alpha IRC channel) into the address bar when you're on the status page to see exactly how much more work is needed for each one of the game.
EDIT: Updated link to new version.

This is fantastic, great work TMNT!
There's a chrome extension that does this automatically now.
http://www.reddit.com/r/Portal/comments/grj0k/chrome_extension_to_display_estimated_finish/
This tool has a markedly different release time prediction than the several other sites (e.g. here). Do we have any indication of which is more accurate?
Most other estimations use only the "Current Progress" bar to predict when the game will be released.
This javascript assumes each game takes a set number of "cpu hours" to complete, and then calculates the time required to complete all remaining CPU hours based on the number of people currently playing.
This one should be more accurate than the other websites, and some have already partially switched over to using this method for calculating the ETA for specific games.
I CONNECTED TO THIS TOPIC IN HOPES THAT THE TOOL LISTED WAS YOUR MOTHER. IT WASN'T. NOW I AM DISAPPOINT. HA HA. I AM ONLY KIDDING. WE WILL LOOK BACK ON THIS TIME AND LAUGH. IT WILL BE. FUN. DWARF FORTRESS FUN.
It doesn't work (entirely) anymore. Any idea if someone fixed it?
Just updated the link to be for the new version: http://pastebin.com/CndyM8TL
