Both, but also depends on the game, the voice acting if there and role etc. I've played equal male and female in Mass Effect but Jennifer Hale's voice in the role is in my view better than Mark Meer, of course I only found this out by playing both. Dragon Age, only playing male or female limits your romances, in DA:I however female english voice actor is the best one, male voice actor sounds like an american doing an exaggerated english accent... which is weird as he is engish. Yet in say a souls game, half the time it doesn't matter as there are not gender stats, so just mess around with the default.

EDIT: I will admit in DA series, my first characters are all dual wield red heads females, even us the same name. So when fans of the game talk about 'canon' story, I have to have different ones as if all the heroes in the series are basically the same character it gets weird. :P
