title: Game Programming as Hobby, should I use Java or C++
body: <p>Presently, i am learning Java from the book The Art and Science of Java and following Standford's Programming Methodology Course.</p>
  
  <p>I would like to do game programming, but only as a hobby. </p>
  
  <p>I was thinking, would Java be a good choice or is C++ the defacto in game programming. </p>
