It's not "just better", nooblet.
Programming languages serve different purposes, that's why there are so many of them. C++ is better suited for certain tasks than Java and vice versa.
Games are a special domain of realtime computing, imposing certain constraints like a guaranteed maximum time spent computing and rendering a frame. C++ does not do anything behind its curtains (unlike Java), therefore you have better control of how much, when and where you spend your cpu cycles. That's the reason why AAA games use C++.
On the other hand, programming enterprise software in C++ is a waste of time, because the user usually does not care if his request is served in 0.0001 or 0.001 seconds. You get the point.
