I prefer both depending if there are any other keys, for example if you use Space I prefer the arrows, if you use Ctrl and Shift I prefer WASD.

Witch one do you prefer?

WASD, it's much easier for games where you have to use the mouse.

Although it looks like an extreme minority, I prefer arrow keys. At the same time, it's not big enough a deal for me to use WASD. I think I'm getting used to it.

So the conclusion is....nearly everyone uses WASD, some people use arrows, and one guy uses WAXD (haha, your cool).

I'm left handed and WASD is hurting my right hand. I'll use IJKL from now on, whenever possible.

Games where you have to use your mouse, WASD. But I live in Belguim and there they use AZERTY keyboards. In some games it is really annoying. In other games like BF:H, it changes to ZQSD. http://i29.tinypic.com/rhny37.jpg
I prefer Arrow keys in games without the mouse.

I still think that WAXD is better than WASD.
The only game that made me pick WASD over WAXD is Assassin Creed.
And I had to remap half of the commands.

It feels more natural with WASD. The arrow keys are too close to the the mouse and make me all squished to together. I used to like arrow keys more, but now it's WASD

WASD, out of habit. It's not too goo because i have to stop to type with them on WoW, haha. Also shouldn't this be under gaming discussion?
