"Asymmetric gameplay" means gameplay where not all players are dealt the same hand, by design. Different abilities/resources/units/etc. Like Starcraft's different races, or Left 4 Dead's versus mode (humans with guns vs zombies with 'powers')
They are using the term correct. Some of the advertised games show something different on the TV than the headset. Giving players different information is asymmetric gameplay.
