java is system independent language but is a little heavy because it uses
java virtual machine to run on
web applications are small and had to be supported on multiple OS
so java is used

c++ although platform dependent uses Little system resources
games run many programs at a time so they are made in c++
if they would be made in java they would have required a lot of ram and CPU resources

see it really depends on the platform you are using
for eg.if you are making a game for a console like PS3,XBOX 360 or Wii
memory is limited they have ram in range of 256-512 MB
so c/c++ is used and java is avoided

for computer games where ram is available in plenty say 2GB
many online games are java based (also consider they are focused on all browsers and operating systems)

java games are also common on mobiles because in this field there are many architectures many operating systems
so to have maximum profit application are made in java so it can be played on most models although these applications are terribly slow

here a nseries or s60 platform phones give an edge
because 25% of world phones are powered by s60 devices NOKIA provides s60 platform with carbide c++
making these devices run c++ applications based on arm processor architecture that perform faster than java applications
c++ applications are 60-80% faster and use 40-60% less ram!!
