acquiring, by the computer, skill level data of the at least two players by detecting and tracking skill based on measurable session behavior of each player of the at least two players, wherein the measurable session behavior includes one or more of a total amount of time played, successful games won, times helping other players, favorite weapon usage, and number of games left;

aggregating, by the computer, each of the skill level data of the at least two players to arrive at an aggregate skill level data;

modifying, by the computer, parameters of the game session for each player of the at least two players, wherein the modifying is based on the aggregate skill level data and wherein the parameters comprise at least one of a tolerance in the game session for how accurate each of the at least two players' aim must be to hit a target in the game session, an amount of damage friendly-fire does to each of the at least two players' teammates, each of the at least two players' likelihood of being targeted by an enemy, each of the at least two players' chance of finding bonus treasure, a number of challenging enemies each of the at least two players is likely to experience in a single encounter, or a multiplier for an amount of value earned by each of the at least two players; and

presenting data, by the computer, to each of the at least two players, via a game console, wherein the data presented are based on the parameters and, when processed, result in each of the at least two players experiencing a customized degree of difficulty in a same level in the game session.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the acquiring further comprises each player of the at least two players rating each other player for one or more subjective skill traits.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the subjective skill traits include at least one of ability to shoot a weapon with accuracy, ability to be a cooperative team player, or ability to lead.

8. A system for simulating a multiplayer game environment in a game session for multiple players where at least two players of the multiple players are assigned to a same team and have different skill levels to play in the game session, the system comprising: a computer having a processor and a random access memory, wherein the processor is in data communication with a display and with a storage unit, the computer configured to:

acquiring skill level data of the at least two players by detecting and tracking skill based on measurable session behavior of each player of the at least two players, wherein the measurable session behavior includes one or more of a total amount of time played, successful games won, times helping other players, favorite weapon usage, and number of games left;

determining an aggregate skill level based on each of the skill level data of the at least two players;

modifying parameters of the game session for each player of the at least two players, wherein the modifying is based on the aggregate skill level data for the at least two players and wherein the parameters comprise at least one of a tolerance in the game session for how accurate each of the at least two players' aim must be to hit a target in the game session, an amount of damage friendly-fire does to each of the at least two players' teammates, each of the at least two players' likelihood of being targeted by an enemy, each of the at least two players' chance of finding bonus treasure, a number of challenging enemies each of the at least two players is likely to experience in a single encounter, or a multiplier for an amount of value earned by each of the at least two players; and

presenting data to each of the at least two players, via a game console, wherein the data presented are based on the parameters and, when processed, result in each of the at least two players of the multiple players experiencing a customized degree of difficulty while experiencing a common level in the game session.

9. The system of claim 8 , wherein the acquiring further comprises each player of the at least two players rating each other player for one or more subjective skill traits.

10. The system of claim 9 , wherein the subjective skill traits include at least one of an ability to shoot a weapon with accuracy, an ability to be a cooperative team player, or an ability to lead.

11. The system of claim 8 , wherein the acquiring further comprises weighing each metric of the skill level data of each player of the at least two players.

12. A system for simulating a multiplayer game environment in a game session for multiple players where at least two players of the multiple players are assigned to a same team and have different skill levels to play in the game session, the system comprising: a computer having a processor and a random access memory, wherein the processor is in data communication with a display and with a storage unit, the computer configured to:
