Take Gears of War as an example- Epic are an independant developer, but MS own the Gears of War franchise. This means it's a 2nd party title, Microsoft don't own Epic but they own the rights to the game. I'm pretty sure this is what it means anyway.
Now take Uncharted as an example- Sony actually own Naughty Dawg, the developer, as well as the Uncharted name. So this makes it a 1st party title.
At the end of the day it's not really a huge difference, that's why most people consider 2nd party games to be 1st party games.
