Turn off game center in IOS9

Ever since I upgraded to iOS 9 every time I open a game app, game center launches. I have no use for game center and would like to disable it as I had in previous iOS versions. Is this still possible?


Thank you

iPhone 6 Plus, iOS 9.0.1

If Microsoft was taken to court for monopolising the browser with Internet Explorer, shouldn't Apple be for Game Centre in iOS 9? How many times do I have to disagree to using Game Centre before it stops appearing?

I got this procedure from an online chat with Apple support:

Open the Game Center App. Login, then log out.

Force close the Game Center app so it's not in the background.

Open your game and close Game Center. Close the game app and then force close it from the background. Repeat this 3-4 times until it (game center) does not come up when you open your game.

Go to settings, and log out of the app store.

Turn off your phone.

Wait 3-4 minutes.

Turn on your phone.

Open your game and Game Center should remain off/disabled.


Did this procedure earlier today and no game center on my games so far. Hope it lasts.


edit:

I logged back into the app store with no ill effects. Game center remains disabled...so far.
