what's up with the formatting for this credits page? in IE6 it appears like word-wrapping isn't working.

Errors like that are usually caused by an unclosed html tag. Perhaps someone tried using html in the credits and didn't close the tag.

Actually, it looks fine on my screen... but then again I view at 1600x1200. It's not a bug.... just when there is a long name in the credit the system won't wrap it down but keeps it together as a whole. This is pretty rare that it happens.... usually only when there is a long entity like this one has.

Prob is that there is no long name. I checked it out at 1024x768 (Firefox), and it's bad.

Actually, he is right. Look at the music section where the submitter added all the copyright information. Personally, I think that's information that isn't really needed, but that's just me (author, studio, etc.... but the extra info seems like more than necessary).

I think the info is supposed to be there, but I still don't get why it doesn't break - there is no long word, so each line could have been wrapped. Looks like word wrapping was disabled for those lines.

Word wrapping on Mobygames is done at the commas.
