I'm from Poland, and I've got quite a lot experience in using Polish software. Using male forms is the norm, nobody writes "wygrałeś/aś" within the software. I can't speak for proper games you run on a laptop, but I've seen that form in several places. Admittedly, it could well have stood out to me as I wondered "What on earth..." Americans might consider it sexist, but it's the only practical solution to the issue. Heh, on a separate but kinda-related note, I wonder how much of this is related to some of Polish's other grammatical rules? If a group of women were in a pub last night, they could say byłyśmy, but if there was a single man there, it becomes byliśmy. It seems that there are one set of grammatical rules for women, children and animals, and another set for men. It's fascinating!
