The gaming system of claim 1, wherein the at least one skill input is selected from the group consisting of: at least one input of a direction of movement of the symbol display window and at least one input of a movement distance of the symbol display window. 3. The gaming system of claim 1, wherein when executed by the at least one processor if a symbol modification event occurs in association with another play of the skill game, the plurality of instructions cause the at least one processor to modify at least one of the symbols displayed at at least one of the symbol display positions of the symbol matrix. 4. The gaming system of claim 1, wherein when executed by the at least one processor, the plurality of instructions cause the at least one processor to display the symbol of the corresponding symbol display position of the symbol matrix for each of the symbol display window positions of the symbol display window. 5. The gaming system of claim 4, wherein when executed by the at least one processor, the plurality of instructions cause the at least one processor to cause the symbol modification event to occur based on one selected from the group consisting of: a random determination, an elapsed amount of time, at least one of the symbols being included in any winning symbol combination, and at least one of the symbols not being included in any winning symbol combinations. 6. A gaming system server comprising: at least one processor; andat least one memory device which stores a plurality of instructions, which when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to: (a) cause at least one display device to display: (i) a symbol matrix including a plurality of symbols at a plurality of symbol display positions, and(ii) a symbol display window associated with the symbol matrix, the symbol display window including a plurality of symbol display window positions, wherein a quantity of the symbol display window positions of the symbol display window is less than a quantity of the symbol display positions of the symbol matrix, and(b) for a play of a skill game: (i) determine a location of the symbol display window relative to the symbol matrix such that each symbol display window position of the symbol display window corresponds with one of the symbol display positions of the symbol matrix, wherein the determined location of the symbol display window is based, at least in part, on at least one skill input made by a player in association with the play of the skill game,(ii) for each of a plurality of the symbol display window positions of the symbol display window, cause the at least one display device to display the symbol of the corresponding symbol display position of the symbol matrix,(iii) determine if any of the symbols displayed at the symbol display window positions of the symbol display window form any winning symbol combinations, and(iv) if the symbols displayed at the symbol display window positions of the symbol display window form at least one winning symbol combination, cause the at least one display device to display an award for each formed winning symbol combination, wherein a credit balance is increasable based on any displayed awards for any formed winning symbol combinations, said credit balance being increasable via an acceptor of a physical item associated with a monetary value, and said credit balance being decreasable via a cashout device. 7. The gaming system server of claim 6, wherein the at least one skill input is selected from the group consisting of: at least one input of a direction of movement of the symbol display window and at least one input of a movement distance of the symbol display window. 8. The gaming system server of claim 6, wherein when executed by the at least one processor if a symbol modification event occurs in association with another play of the skill game, the plurality of instructions cause the at least one processor to modify at least one of the symbols displayed at at least one of the symbol display positions of the symbol matrix. 9. The gaming system server of claim 8, wherein when executed by the at least one processor, the plurality of instructions cause the at least one processor to cause the symbol modification event to occur based on one selected from the group consisting of: a random determination, an elapsed amount of time, at least one of the symbols being included in any winning symbol combination, and at least one of the symbols not being included in any winning symbol combinations. 10. The gaming system server of claim 6, wherein when executed by the at least one processor, the plurality of instructions cause the at least one processor to cause the at least one display device to display the symbol of the corresponding symbol display position of the symbol matrix for each of the symbol display window positions of the symbol display window. 11. A method of operating a gaming system, said method comprising: (a) causing at least one display device to display: (i) a symbol matrix including a plurality of symbols at a plurality of symbol display positions, and(ii) a symbol display window associated with the symbol matrix, the symbol display window including a plurality of symbol display window positions, wherein a quantity of the symbol display window positions of the symbol display window is less than a quantity of the symbol display positions of the symbol matrix, and(b) for a play of a skill game: (i) causing at least one processor to execute a plurality of instructions to determine a location of the symbol display window relative to the symbol matrix such that each symbol display window position of the symbol display window corresponds with one of the symbol display positions of the symbol matrix, wherein the determined location of the symbol display window is based, at least in part, on at least one skill input made by a player in association with the play of the skill game,(ii) for each of a plurality of the symbol display window positions of the symbol display window, causing the at least one display device to display the symbol of the corresponding symbol display position of the symbol matrix,(iii) causing the at least one processor to execute the plurality of instructions to determine if any of the symbols displayed at the symbol display window positions of the symbol display window form any winning symbol combinations, and(iv) if the symbols displayed at the symbol display window positions of the symbol display window form at least one winning symbol combination, causing the at least one display device to display an award for each formed winning symbol combination, wherein a credit balance is increasable based on any displayed awards for any formed winning symbol combinations, said credit balance being increasable via an acceptor of a physical item associated with a monetary value, and said credit balance being decreasable via a cashout device. 12. The method of claim 11, wherein the at least one skill input is selected from the group consisting of: at least one input of a direction of movement of the symbol display window and at least one input of a movement distance of the symbol display window. 13. The method of claim 11, which includes if a symbol modification event occurs in association with another play of the skill game, causing the at least one processor to execute the plurality of instructions to modify at least one of the symbols displayed at at least one of the symbol display positions of the symbol matrix. 14. The method of claim 13, which includes causing the at least one processor to execute the plurality of instructions to cause the symbol modification event to occur based on one selected from the group consisting of: a random determination, an elapsed amount of time, at least one of the symbols being included in any winning symbol combination, and at least one of the symbols not being included in any winning symbol combinations. 15.
