C++ teaches programming, Java is very restrictive. I quit Java because it is too restrictive. C++ can do anything. You'll never need another language. There are loads of learning resources and libs out there. If you want to make games, apps, system tools, C++.

Personally I started with C++ and it's still my favourite, but Java has some great IDEs such as NetBeans and Eclipse. They are well-organized and introduce you better to OOP.

I’d say Java because large focus on OOP, then C++ because it’s just a great language.

I agree with Chris; Java is quite restrictive. It's also a great second language. Try it out, and if you want more power, try C#. It's like Java, but less restrictive, but it definitely has its features, like LINQ, Unity support, and more.
