No. It can still be a no hitter. But a perfect game requires the pitcher to retire every batter he or she faces. A perfect game is broken whenever any batter reaches base, including by hit, walk, or error.

What do you call a baseball game in which the pitcher strikes out every batter?
a perfect game
If the third baseman drops a foul ball and is charged with an error and the pitcher retires everyone with no one reaching base is this a perfect game?
No. A perfect game is no runs, no hits, no errors and no walks. I believe that rule stands even if the batter does not reach base on an error. Opinion .... yes, it's still a perfect game. The definition of a perfect game is one in which no runner reaches first base (any way, hit, error, hit by ball, etc.). On a foul ball error, if the batter does not reach first base (strike out, any other way), he is still just another one of the 27 outs in a perfect game. Yes. The definition of a perfect game is 27 batters up and 27 batters down without a single batter reaching base safely. An error that does not result in a batter reaching base safely has no bearing on a perfect game.

According to the rules of the International Softball Federation (ISF), a perfect game in softball is a statistic credited to a pitcher when he/she completes a game and allows the opposing team no one reaching first base. By international softball rules, a game is considered complete if a team is winning by 20 runs after three innings, 15 after four, or seven after five.
In baseball if a pitcher is throwing a perfect game and they bases are loaded due to walks and a sac fly is hit and the runner from third scores does it still count as a perfect game?
No--allowing one baserunner for any reason (including walks) immediately ends the perfect game. You may be thinking of a shutout (a game without any runs scored). Again, the answer would be no; in the situation you describe the run would be unearned, but would still prevent the pitcher from getting credit for a shutout.
