Which one do you prefer and why? I personally prefer WASD because it's closer to the other keys which makes it easier to play the game (unless you have three hands).

WASD for games using mouse controls as well, it is easier to use your mouse with WASD controls. If you don't need a mouse to play though i tend to use the arrow keys.

I used to like arrow keys when I was younger because I could know which one did which easy with the arrows. But WSAD is alot beter it is closer to other keys.

I always like the double controlled games with the WASD keys and the mouse, that makes for some great interaction! Especially the shooting games like TLS-UC! =D

But I also like those 2D arcade platform games, where you have to use the arrow keys combined with the spacebar and 'A' 'S' 'D' keys, like the "Hobo" series!

I like to use WASD because it makes the mouse easier to use at the same time.

WASD w/ mouse and/or any keys on the right side of my laptop. Arrows for anything else.

i would rather use the arrow keys just cuz i mean up is up and down is down and so forth. just makes things less confusing. and also i would have to move my right hand all the way over cuz if i wanted to use my left hand for the keys...it would be a major fail

WASD - makes the mouse easier to use. And I can use UHJK at the same time!

Depends on the game. If it's mostly controlled by the mouse, WASD is easier. If it's largely a keyboard game, the arrows are easier.

Is it just me or is their another thread just like this in the flash game section?

Heres the exact comment I made for your liking:

As others have stated, WASD is better for me because you have more options with it with space and mouse and your pinky on enter if you're playing raze.

WASD, like others, if there is mouse control, but if I like the arrow keys on occasion, because of some hardcore gaming!
