Im not knocking Gamehouse I have been with them for years lol but i love my HOG and have just been looking at Bigfish website - how come they have so many more than Gamehouse and more up to date ones - i have the Funpass with Gamehouse but they just dont seem to have as many hog. I could buy two games a month for what i pay for with my funpass. OK im looking for reasons to stay or cancel - anyone

You have funpass, the website you mentioned doesn't.
Each site offers different games.
I have accounts with both because each site offers something that I want.
Take for instance, Luxor 2. I can play it here, With the site that you mentioned it doesn't work.
I have some other games that the other site don't.

In my experience (speaking only for my BF-caused-headache here) BF will try to rip you off and GH won't.

I'm afraid I have to agree with BlackTabbyCat. I've only been a FunPass member here for a few months, and I do like the ability to play any game I choose, but I'm finding that there are just not enough new HOG and IHOG games. I do play some of the TM's and occasionally try the M3's, but my passion is HOG's and I find myself with a long wish list of games appearing on BFG that keeps getting longer and longer. I don't mind waiting for a game, but it seems as though most of the HOG's just don't make it to GH.

Another thing that has been annoying me for a while is that there are numerous Ihog and hogs ready for launch but no other site seems able to or allowed to release them without BFG having first bite at the cherry. Surely this isn't fair play or competative in any way at all and of course other game sites don't seem to get a look in until a game is months old

If you are referring to the games that the other site develops. they will not come here nor will gamehouse games go there. Each site get games that other developers develop and release.

No, I understand about each site keeping certain games that they develop away from the other. It's third party games, of which BFG has new HOG's and FROG'S and IHOG's several times a week that rarely seem to get here. As I said, I'm not against waiting. I'd just like a better concept of which games will come here, and which will not. And, of course, I'd like to see more HOG's at GH.

Plus the fact that they release a game a day makes it seem like more, and yeah, we do wait longer... and some like meself wish for "less" hogs! (believe it or not...) I tend to totally bypass those that don't have a story with other puzzles in them now.

A game a day doesn't mean it's a good game a day. Even GH with it's almost-game-a-day comes up with some questionable quality.

That is for sure, yusef... sometimes it seems they're grasping at straws (or seaweed) for the offering! And they're often games that we've had here at GH for a long time. So good point!
