Hello All, I was curious as to if anyone could help me in the direction of what kind of graphics programs are used to create games like Monsters(PS3)? If there is another post that relates, I apologize for the redundancy just please point me in the right direction. Thanks, Eric

Maya, 3DS Max, ZBrush, etc.

I would suggest going with Blender 3D at blender.org

It offers the same productivity as Maya, and it is free(open source)!

Thanks for the tip on Blender! Most grateful!

First off before I tackle full 3D games, I am interested in less graphics intensive options. For instance, HD 2-D ideas. The goal is something for in the league of Xbox live or Playstation Network.

Thanks again for any help.

2D: Photoshop (raster graphics), Flash & Illustrator (vector graphics)

Great thanks for the info!
