Wolfenstein - the problem is that potential girl gamers won't go for the rpg, as it doesn't comply with their stereotype. For the first few months a potential girl gamer will play the Sims, Singstar, Eyetoy, Wii Sports, Wii Play (notice how the 360 has nothing suited to this demographic - 50% of the population. Or if it does, M$ surely aren't advertising it well). Only then will she move into a little bit more depth, and by that I mean your Marios and your Spyros (well, not Spyro in particular as the new one are pretty crap, but games similar to that franchise). I'd say it'll take 6 months minimum for a girl to become a bit more of a gamer, but I don't see girl gamer tking an RPG seriously until about a year of gaming.
