I thought it was the other way around ... as in Max is more commonly used for games while Maya is more for film animation. But it doesn't really matter though ... both are pretty standard for game development. And some places even use both.
Also, difficulty is totally dependent on the user. Some people will say Max is easier, while others will think animating in Maya is easier. There's no clear cut answer. I personally like Maya better ... I can't stand Max anymore. :P
I'd say it isn't too difficult to learn the basics. It'll take time with lots of practice to get good at it though. I'm sure there are tutorials on youtube somewhere if you search for it.
Those white bullet trails? It's actually pretty simple ... they're just a couple of intersecting planes with some scaling and opacity animations on them.
