Most games that involve moving a character or object through a 3D environment while in 3rd person will typically feel better with a controller.
Darksiders II, DmC, emulating any xbox/ps2 game, racing games, etc.
Keyboard means you can only move in 8 directions if you don't factor in camera controls. Analog sticks are just better for this stuff.
If you need to shoot stuff, then grab a mouse, cuz that's always best for aiming, no contest.
