I've spent the entire morning reading 243 articles on this news fro 21 different countries and right now, xboxgamezone is the ONLY one that reports Fassbender as playing Desmond. Even the editors of Wikipedia have told me his role in the film, apart from it being the lead, has not been yet released to the public. You said you had a friend who was in good conact with Ubisoft. If he can get word from them that says otherwise, then I'll make sure to notify all my other contacts of the various sites. (EDITORS NOTE: The only reason I'm going on about this is because I care about this wiki and want to make sure all the info posted here is correct.)
