What software would be used to create the graphics in games such as WoW or Guild Wars?

I would like to know what software is used to create the models and scenery in games such as World Of Warcraft and Guild Wars.



I don't want to create games as such, I would however, like the software to create a small sort of animation of a model moving or something.



What software is used to do this?



Would they use Maya or 3D Max?



Thanks.What software would be used to create the graphics in games such as WoW or Guild Wars?Either will work, the only difference is interface. Try both and see which one is more comfortable for you to use.
