When it comes to game programming, I don't think Java is the first language most people think of. They usually think of C++ and other languages. The biggest name in Java gaming is Minecraft, and there are a few other Java-based desktop games out there, but not nearly as many as there are C++.
When it comes to C++ vs. Java for game programming one obvious advantage of C++ is speed. The resulting program should generally run faster. But with Java being at least somewhat simpler to program in than C++, are there any other advantages C++ has over Java for game programming?
