For gaming USB is generally better because it has a higher polling rate which translates into smoother mouse motion. I prefer the smoother motion in general usage.

PS/2 is capable of polling at higher rates, but doesn't by default, you have to get a hack for it.

What are you using to measure the polling rate?
