A common format used by most major gamers (not including me) that has been used for years and has been combined with the Ctrl and Space buttons with the acception of the E button. The format is the following:
W=walk/drive forward
A=strafe/turn left
S=walk/drive backward
D=strafe/turn right
Ctrl=crouch
Space=jump
E (only if the game has to have a "Use" key)=Use

The only well known competitor to WASD is the Arrow keys which is another game movement format for another Urban Dictionary page.
