[b]I play just the opposite[/b]

This is exactly opposite to how I play.  In tournaments, I play very few hands, but wait until I have a decent one before committing many chips.  In cash games, the table size is smaller (usually 5 or 6 players verses 9 or 10 on tournaments), so it requires you to play more hands.

Some of the other differences are:
- In a cash game, you often come out even or a little bit ahead.  In tournaments you often loose all your buy-in
- In a cash game, if you go on tilt, you can get up and leave and take your money with you.  In a tournament you are committed.
- I generally have a better read on players in a cash game, due to length of time spent with them at the tables.  In tournaments, the players change more frequently.
- In a tournament my strategy changes significantly depending on whether it is the beginning, middle or end of the tournament. In cash games it will be more the same.  Both will change due to circumstance/players.
- Stealing blinds is much more a part of tournament play compared to cash
