The game was made with softimage|XSI, AFIK, and there are some pdf's describing how to export. XSI is also one of the very best modelling apps around. Their Foundation version is not very expensive compared to other packages, and the ModTool version is free, but I am unsure if the latter works with Sins.

I use Maya 7.0 to model; but that's because I learned how to model with it and any other program would just confuse me.

Ive worked with a few modeling programs (although Im not very good with them) but there interfaces all seem to be relatively the same.

I personally use 3ds or the free XSI Mod Tool.

Err, modeling takes a very long time when you want a high quality. Let alone the texture..

Your easiest solution would probably be to download XSI ModTools (free) and import your Max model. Then read the PDF's Stardock has on setting up models for export from XSI. Modelling and texturing in Max but doing setup and export from XSI would probably be the cleanest approach.
