Well? Only post/vote if you use keyboard/mouse AND controller interfaces regularly.

Usually only the controller, and only that if I've been playing for more than an hour and a half.

I voted both, but mouse/keyboard sweat only occurs on a hot day. When I'm gaming. Regular use is dry.

My hands don't usually sweat at all but occasionally they will sweat when my hands are on my laptop palm rests. My computer doesn't generate enough heat to make my hands hot, either.
That was a joke.

My hands often sweat during gaming, and often during intense moments of gaming (such as Boss Battles on Intense in Brawl, or any of the comet Stars in Super Mario Galaxy).

My hands have never sweated on a keyboard though.

My hands don't sweat regardless of whether I'm playing using keyboard and mouse or a gamepad.

Nothing on keyboardmouse because I kind of elevate my hands so only my fingerpads touch stuff.

But on gamepads, sweat gushes heavily from my palms constantly. Sometimes the controller squirts from my liquihole and flies into the air in response to a tight grip of excitement.

And only during fighting games does my entire body drip and secrete.

I guess that means fighting games are the best?

I think the only games where I sweat from somewhere that's not my hands is Guitar Hero/Rock Band, when I'm scoreheroing.

I think the console game that makes my hands the most sweaty is N+.

Not often for either. But if I'm really tense (very hard/suspenseful games) my hands will sweat on controllers.

Though, you don't want me to vote because I'm pretty much a 100% console gamer, hmm? Well, I did play plenty of Portal on my PC and have lots of keyboarding emulation time clocked in, though I use a 360 controller for that now too...

Neither regularly, but I have rarely had sweaty hands on console controllers.  What about people that beat SMB NES with their feet?  What about feet on dance mats or Wii Fit boards?

Luigison, dance mats (and Guitar Hero controllers) are why I said "gamepads". I sweat all the time when using those peripherals. (I don't sweat when using my feet for a gamepad, such as when I play Geometry Wars with my feet.)

I can sweat up a storm with a controller but not with a keyboard/mouse (I don't really play PC games).
