In System Settings:


Game Center - turn all sliders off, then sign out.


Notifications > Game Center - turn the slider at the top off to kill all messages.


Turn off Game Center in iCloud.


Even with those off, some games will continue to bug you to sign in. Most will stop (they're supposed to) after three to five launches of the app. Others will incessantly inform you to sign in.


Killing it entirely doesn't seem to be possible.
