  Yes, she is definitely geared for males.  But as it's seemed to me, females 
can overlook that glaring error if they like the game (which they usually 
).

  That wouldn't be a bad idea, but that's assuming a lot of people buy it.  
Sega may work on a "break-even hardware, profit software" method, but that's 
only when they're comfortable that one or the other will do well.

  Hey, Windows IS good, if you're smart about it.  It's the only OS I know of 
with any decent gaming on it at all.
  Yes, Windows 1.0-3.0 and such wasn't all that perfect, but consider the 
dark days of things like Wordperfect for DOS...
