How Many Shakespeare Plays Do You Know?

One thing that annoys me with these book lists is when people put down "The Complete Works of X". Even if X is one of my favourite authors, I can't be sure I've read every single word they produced. This is particularly true of Shakespeare (and Chaucer). Much as I love Shakespeare, I know that there are still plays I've not seen or read (and that's not thinking about his poetry). So how many of his plays do you actually know?
