1. Prevent guest accounts from posting on the discussion threads altogether.
A bit too drastic.

Not a good idea. There are some guests (e.g Gamefreak) who actually are helpful.

2. Install a word filter that will block any guest posts in the game discussion forum that contain the words "how" or "where" and "download", as well as those that contain anything about e-mailing.
Kinda complicated, but seems like the right way to go.

"how download" or "where download"? Hm... I agree, but there might be a sentence like "
How good is this game? I
would download it, but it's big and I want to know what I should expect for it"

3. Install a redirect page that displays after clicking the discussion link from the review, and stays on the screen for 30 seconds before redirecting to the actual thread. Put a message on that page that reads "This game has been removed due to a request from ESA. Do not ask where/how can you download a copy, nor request it to be sent to you via e-mail.". Make it so that the page displays only to users that are not logged in to the forum.

Good idea
k: 30 seconds might be too much though. Maybe 20 seconds?
