Steam deals have been fluctuating a lot lately. Last year I got games at steep discounts, but now prices are dropping even more. I’m curious about what’s coming next for Valve titles—especially Garrys Mod, Half-Life games, Portal 1 and 2, and the Age of Empires pack. Should I hold off or jump in?
Games won't offer better deals than those available during Daily Deals or Flash Sales. Wait for them to appear in those promotions before purchasing.
It seems you expect alerts for games on your Wishlist that become available, but those notifications aren't being sent. You're right about the timing.

Occasionally they do offer good deals—like Skyrim being sold at a flash sale for a lower price (around 50/66%) and then dropping further. The Half-Life pack is currently worth about 75% off, making it a solid deal. Be cautious with new releases; they rarely get heavy discounts unless you’re willing to pay a steep percentage. Follow past sales in the news section of games to gauge typical prices and set spending limits to avoid overspending.
