For those who thought The Truth in Brotherhood wasn't bizarre enough, Revelations will provide far more for the crazed fever-dream fanbase.

Shouldn't have taken Linux out of the Animus 2.0

Now all of Desmond's CC information has been compromised

@Seraphim84: Brotherhood already had optional "VR missions" for free-running, combat and stealth-takedowns.
 
But this is certainly not that. There's a few interviews around that explains a little more of what's going on here with the Animus' White-Room and Black-Room.

I think someone downloaded a Mirror's Edge time trial into the Animus.

There's a date (15/?/??59) and a message ("Is this the end") for a frame each at the end, and a mysterious figure...

That was odd. Will probably make more sense after I finish Brotherhood although parts of the end have already been spoiled for me.

So this time you get so into the program you're stuck. Or a secretly imbedded program. Interesting.

are they alluding to Desmond just being another animus construct that someone else in the future is re-living?

MAn they got me even more hyped for this (totally already of the level with how much I love the Assassin Creed games and story so alreayd really into what they showed but) showing more  of Desmond and the real life was totally interesting.
**POSIBLE SPOILERS**
Also seeing interviews saying this is like the hidden part of the Animus - so the part we have seen up to now is the "White zone" or something and the showy minimalistic area where everything is stuppossed ot be hidden into awe and as Desmond tries to see deeper into it to know what to do now he ends up in the "black zone" where the underlining building of the Animus and the place for reason and finding out why and how the Templars got this is.
 
More Desmond man - Revelation is looking great - I know a lot of people are thinking "isn't this just the same as brotherhood" but they said the same about brotherhood and 2 and brotherhood really nailed it improving in a lot of ways (although the Eagle vision was kind of annoying - but they seem to have fixed tha in this one and the lack of variety of towns was a bit dissapointing the game overall and pace was really well done).
