Check out simon's great "fireworks" example (built in with max), and change line 95 to
"SetScale 200/sp.z,200/sp.z"
(i.e. scale the particles 10 times bigger)
It makes THE coolest realtime effect I've ever seen IN MY WHOLE LIFE
Edit:Oh, and put the graphics in 32 bit!
ReEdit: I never thought something lke this was possible to achieve in realtime. Its a proof of the power of Max
