Mavericks: GameKit.framework 'gamed' process –constant network connections

err... tried stiobhart's method and the notifications stopped..... temporarily.. today, I have another thousand blocks by little snitch. *** gives? Any advice?

Did you restart the computer after moving com.apple.gamed.plist into the disabled folder?

Anyway... This was bothering me, too. So, after some reading, I added this to the gamed plist file -

<key>Disabled</key>

<true/>

This is what Apple suggests...

https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/Darwin/Reference/ManPages/ man5/launchd.plist.5.html

...and it definitely gets the job done. You'd need to do this as root, so type very carefully. Lanuch the Terminal program, then -

Sluggy:/Users/billy> sudo su -

Password:

Sluggy:~ root# cd /System/Library/LaunchAgents/

Sluggy:LaunchAgents root# pico com.apple.gamed.plist

and write in the two Disabled key lines just below these, near the top of the file -

<key>Label</key>

<string>com.apple.gamed</string>

Then type Control-X and answer Yes to save the new file.

You probably should make a backup copy first - open the /System/Library/LaunchAgents folder and

while holding down the Option key drag a copy to your Desktop.
