I recently heard that GMAX can actually be used for FP/Biped animation. is this true? i cant afford 3ds max. and if it is true, can someone give me a tutorial?

Yes, it can. Gmax animating is almost exactly the same as doing it in 3ds max. If you can find a 3ds max animating tutorial, there are many on this site, then you can use it for gmax. Just click the "Animate" button, when you've got your scene all set up, and begin making your very own first person, or even 3rd person animations.

Hope i helped clear things up.

Yep, cutscenes, vehicle flying paths, fp animations. Heck, you could make the cow jump over the moon if you had the models.
