It's kinda weird isn't it? A perfect example is Chaos 6 in Sonic Adventure. Chaos is made of water, and Robotnik is flying around throwing ice bombs at you. Which you can of course pick up, throw at Chaos, freeze him and shatter him.

Video Game Chat / Re: click here if you think Nintendo made all the games for the N64

Hinopio got it absolutely right.
A third party will make games for all systems. Like Namco (Tekken for PSX, Ridge Racer for N64, Soul Calibur for DC etc).

A second party is usually kept exclusive to one company, but could always go and make games for other systems. Rare is a second party to Nintendo (they had a few games on the Sega Megadrive though aparently), Square is a Second party to Sony now (but previously for Nintendo), and Sonic Team and Bizarre Creations are Second partys to Sega.
Namco used to be almost second party to Sony, but now they've gone completely 3rd party.

And a first party is the company themselves, like Sega, or Nintendo. Sony doesn't have any first party development I think. Just very, very close 2nd partys.
Hope this sheds some light on the situation.

I agree, bugs are annoying. I haven't really experienced too many in Nintendo games, but Playstation games are notorious for bugs.
Cartridges deteriorating is annoying too!
Sometimes they can help though, like in Sonic Adventure, theres a bug so you can 'ride' the whale in emerald coast, which can allow you to get better times in the time attack....hmmmm a bit off topic there but I'm quite a big Sega fan. By the way, Hi, I'm Jonaskin. I'm new to this forum.
