If you've already completed Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed and are at a loss as to what the ending means, Xbox World 360 has posted a detailed explanation regarding all the freaky symbols, emails, ancient deities, and dates given for the gamer to ponder. Here's an excerpt (spoiler):
Q. Okay, so why can I not see it (the writing) until the end of the game?
A. Abstergo washed the messages off of the walls and the floor, but Desmond is able to spot the messages by using his Eagle Vision.
Q. Wait a second. You said that Desmond wasn't Altair! What gives?
A. He's not, at least, not yet... Read through Vidic's emails and you'll stumble across one that mentions 'The Bleeding Effect.' Vidic reports that, after using the Animus for a given length of time, some previous subjects were unable to distinguish between their ancestors' lives and their own. Their genetic and real-time memories have literally 'bled' into one another, which is why Desmond is able to use the Eagle Vision power at the end of the game.
