@The Leaping Eagle: i didn't say it was complicated and i do know it's too different apples i just think it's stupid that they change the story so much in brotherhood and revelations. clearly, having two different apples was not the original story and why the hell would it make Desmond weaker if Ezio and Altair was related?

@Master Sima Yi: it was actually confirmed in a gameinformer when AC2 came out and don't you think it's funny how Ezio and Altair looks exactly alike, except the beard? it's pretty that they where ment to be related until revelations came out.
