    I'm not actually familiar with GameHouse, so what does this mean? Do you get to download full games on an unlimited basis for a year? Probably not, right?

    Hmm, my brain's not working. I just read their terms and conditions and am still not sure. Here's the pertinent parts:

    • FunPass is a low fixed-rate subscription package that gives you unlimited access to over 2,300 games, including all Premium Edition titles. You can play all game levels full-screen, without any advertisements or time limits, during the subscription period. Our games are free from viruses.
    • You pay the total amount of the FunPass subscription in one upfront payment.
    • You can pay for your FunPass with a credit card.
    • Your FunPass is linked to your GameHouse login account. You can play with FunPass by downloading a game via the Unlimited Play button on the info page of the game, clicking the FunPass tab or Play with FunPass button within the game, and logging in with your login name.

    Sounds like you can download all their games for that low price, no? Is there a catch, do you think?
    Mind you, I don't know what their games are like. Are they generally the same as Big Fish? Cause that is one low price! It's less than a year's membership at Big Fish which just pays for 12 games.

    The downside of FunPass is that you don't actually OWN the games -- just unlimited play.  Be aware that while you can play the Premium Edition games, you CAN'T play the Platinum Edition ones.

    I recommend checking out the FREE 7-day FunPass membership, and see if it's to your liking.  I can find a link if you need it Smile

    Oh I see... but when I think about it that may not be a real negative. I own oodles of games from Big Fish but to be honest, there's probably a pretty small percentage that I loved enough to even reconsider replaying. Most, even if enjoyable in the moment, were largely forgettable. So, it's a smarter use of money to play all I want for a year rather than own lots of games I'll never touch again.

    Something to consider is that there are exclusives that GameHouse will never get -- such as the MCF series.  MOST of the time the games come up at Big Fish long before they come out at GH.  Of course, you can trial them at BF, then put them on your to-play list for when they show up at GH.

    FunPass might come with one game a month, like BF has, but I'm not sure... If I remember correctly, you do get a game credit, but you have to spend it right away or lose it.  They may have changed that, though.

    This link should help you out:
    https://support.gamehouse.com/entries/24082603-How-do-I-sign-in-and-use-my-FunPass-membership-

    and there's this as well:
    FunPass is our best-value game membership that gives you unlimited play of over 2,300 full-version games, including 2,000+ PC games and 300+ Mac games, for a low monthly rate*. Just connect to the Internet, click on any FunPass designated game on GameHouse.com, download and install the game, sign in to FunPass, and play. There are no time limits or restrictions, and you never see in-game ads. Additionally, you receive a 30% discount on game purchases, including Premium Edition and Platinum Edition games, and a free game benefit each month.
    *Platinum Edition games are excluded from play with FunPass. In order for GameHouse to offer you these games, we are not contractually able to offer them for FunPass play. We will be offering standard versions of these games, which will be included for FunPass play, as soon as those standard editions are available to us.
