I use 3ds Max for baking normal maps, it can get pretty high quality. Also, sometimes you want to render some things for textures, like hair for instance. Depending on your game you might even want to bake a complete map texture with lighting and all that.

Ooh I see so baking improves the quality. hmmm

Would you recommend 3DS Max or MAYA? I hear 3ds max comes with Nvidia Iray built in since I have a GTX 760 Nvidia card I could take huge advantage of the CUDA cores. Since my CPU is only a 3.7 GHZ core i3 haswell. The difference with rendering in cpu and gpu is massive for me in blender. But things like Cinema 4D does not come with CUDA rendering.
