Both are first party. LBP is owned by Sony and made by Media molecule which is owned by Sony. inFamous is owned by Sony and made by Sucker Punch who are second party, but infamous can't be published on any other platform(unless Sony wants it) because the IP is owned by Sony. That makes it a first party game. Something like heavy rain is not first party strictly but infamous is. Sony can easily hire another developer(a first party developer) to develop the game, but they have more faith in Sucker Punch. |
I have always counted first party as games made by first party studios. Neither Media Molecule or Sucker Punch were first party at the time of those games specific releases
Sig thanks to Saber! :D
