I think that there X and Y chromosome games. With some subset of X liking Y and vice versa.
For me - the greatest game ever is Serious Sam - give me a chaingun, enemies and bullets and I am happy as a worm in an apple. Obviously Katrina would not find the game interesting. She also would probably not enjoy a Thaddeus raid. Or ripping spine fatality.
Testosterone loves adversarial, brutal, violent games. Estrogen - not so much.
One interesting correlation is that women that like real metal (not bon jovi) and beer tend also to like the video games that serve mostly the male audience.
So big part of the market is underserved. But I think that for that we must put inclusiveness on hold - nobody in the publishing industry expect sizable male audience for 50 shades, or sizable female for Brandon Sanderson.
