I use both, first I used Arrow Keys only because I was thinking they are easy to use, then when I got MineCraft, I learned to use AWSD as well.

wasd is best if you are right handed and playing a flash side scrolling shooter. Arrow keys ae better for lefties.

I prefer WASD for just about any game, the reason being my arrow keys on my laptop are too small

wasd when you need the mouse and arrow keys when you need the spacebar (or other buttons).
i like the arrow keys because the up is really on top of the down, while the w-s combination isn't

I use WASD more often, especially if I need to use the mouse in a game(shooters).

I only use Arrow Keys for certain games.

im left-handed and WASD Keys are more comfortable to use than arrow keys.....especially in MMO games or FPS games

I prefer WASD because it is usually closer to other key bindings which makes it more smooth to press keys on the keyboard. I can of course use both arrow keys and wasd but over the time I've gotten so used to wasd that I only use it. :3

I prefer WASD because even though im right-handed i feel more comfortable with my left hand on WASD and right hand on the mouse.
