First Person controll, WSAD or Arrow Keys?

[the dark side]

adapting to a new layout is probably true for most people scraper. i simply just cant use WSAD, with either hand, i have tried, but, it makes my hands hurt like a swine, and i keep mis-co-ordinating, its horrible, its why, as i said, if a game uses WSAD and doesn't let you rebind the keys, i have to buy it on console, as much as the innacurate responses of a gamepad wind me up, i can at least use them without mis-co-ordinating or getting pain in my hands. i also have to use an aftermarket PS3 pad for that system (2 words.. gran turismo) wich has trigger surrounds like the old PS2 and PSX pads, as the exposed triggers of the official pad make my fingers hurt. sometimes games companies just dont think.

thats a point, does anyone else here have Pain or Mis-co-ordination issues with WSAD key layouts or the PS3 controller, or just me?

by the way, my keyboard is lain out with the Numpad 1 key only 1 inch north east of the right arrow key, directly aligned with the Up arrow, as the keyboard has 2 number imputs, a pad on the right of the keboard, and a bar above the main keys. as its a DELL USB keyboard rather than an inbuilt one.

this is my keyboard. it also has a plastic plate for my wrist as i find it stops my wrist hurting.



i hope the image helps you visualise my controll layout.
