I use it a fair bit, for the same reasons as everyone else. Even if it's just for secondary functions—weapon selection, menus, etc.—I like it to feel good and be accurate.
For fighting games and actual arcade ports I usually break out the arcade stick, though. But even then it's nice to have the option of using the pad if I want.
