Wait... multiplayer games with difficulty settings?

It never works, anyway. My brother picked up that FPS about fish... what was it? COD 4: Modern Warfare, or something. Anyway. First multiplayer game he ever played, the enemy team was stacked with high-level players who could (and I kid you not) shoot and see through walls. You might think this was done via exploit. You'd be wrong. It's actually how the game is designed. People who have played longer are matched against newbies and given weapons that mean said newbies cannot possibly fight back. And then the experienced players nuke your entire team and just win. Oh, and they also appear to have a higher resistance to bullets. You know, just to rub it in.
