Hey, I just recieved in the mail the 3DS MAX demo I signed up for on their site ages ago.. (took 'em long enough).

It turns out the "demo" is just an informercial on the disc. They show off a bunch of graphics demos (Chunky's! hehe) and talk about game developement, etc.

However, to get the real deal, even with the academic discount, it comes to $899!

Looks mighty fine, and it's what the industry uses. Pretty powerful piece of software. Too pricey for most though...

However, the demo cd is worth ordering if nothing else for the hilarious videos included on the disc (ie: two big monsters beat the living crap out of each other.. until only their eyeballs are left; a nerdy kid defends a fast food restaurant during the night shift, against all sorts of horrors). ; )

I would post them, but the videos are huge (the fast food one is 50 mb).

There's also the "terminator baby" one in there too.
