DON'T MAKE GAMES IN JAVA!
I started game development by making games in java applets. Bad idea. You wanna make games, use Direct3D, OpenGL, etc. Java isn't all bad. It makes great applets in sites for FTP transfers, interactive charts, etc., for those of you who don't like using flash (like me). But don't make games in it, I was young and naive, and screwed up bad. Just say no. Choose a life of C++ xD
=P

I think you should use C++ for DirectX/OpenGL (The big stuff) and Flash for small web games, and Java for the stuff in between.

I made a 64 multiplayer real time Asteroids game u play over LAN in Java for a highschool programming project. It worked out very well, not at all bad for games.
