Most user friendly 3D modelling program?

[Dotkito92]

Which one is it? Is it Maya or CAD or 3ds max or whatever? I'm interested in making 3D guns and vehicles for Halo and other favorite video games.

The "most user-friendly 3D modeling program" is simply whichever one suits you best.

I prefer Maya.
A *lot* of people prefer Max.

Try 'em both for 30 days... try to make something simple... but the race will probably be between Max and Maya... maybe XSI...

... I mean, Dick Van Dyke uses Lightwave but he's done 3D animation since Lightwave was actually good o.O That's a while.

for me, Maya

Maya.

Maya has the easiest user interface in my experience. No modifiers that you have to worry about.
