When determining the "worth" of Max or Maya I would say that 99% of the high end art work is done in max or maya. For low poly game models it may not make much difference which modeler you use but it apparently does for high poly high rez images. No. This was in the past. Today almost all highres models are finished in ZBrush. The modeling tools differ. Today many artists use Silo as a modeler, more and more are using Modo. Maya is well known because of the good character animation set. Max is just an all-in-one package, a bit patch work, not perfect in every area, but complete. But especially for high end models Max is not the best alternative though it is well known because of its age and because of the wide warez distribution.

"Today many artists use Silo as a modeler, more and more are using Modo." Yea that's probably true and I hear that alot on the forums, but if you look at the galleries on cgsociety and cgchannel the images are almost exclusivly max or maya with zbrush and photoshop. The art work posted there is usually much better than the best posted on the websites for silo and modo.
@lordmoggy... if you are still thinking about getting carrara 7 they just sent me an email and it is on sale again if you join the platinum club... and that membership is discounted as well.

^ You bought Maya just for animation? (considering there are better animating tools out there) Can you explain which tools you have in mind? Regarding the CG-society images: You will find the most impressive images at the ZBrush forums, no matter what tool you used before bringing the mesh to ZBrush, even MED oder Wings3d could be used for that. Max is very old and widely spread among warez users. Of course you will find more images rendered in Max and finished in Photoshop.
