The concept is actually well defined.

1st party - Studios of the platform holder

3rd party - Independent studios working on their own IPs (can be multiplatform or exclusive)

2nd party - comissioned work, IP is owned by platform holder and studio still have independence but almost only develop for that platform.

I'll buy the concept of 2nd party studios. But 2nd party games aren't a real concept as far as I'm concerned. You're either a first party game, or a third party one. 

Well the only concept of 2nd party game would be a game made by a second party studio, but sure it would look akin to a first party game.
