I will say that the magazine ad for Blood gave me some feelings when I was a wee lad
Sounds like someone didn't like getting made John Romero's bitch.

Real magazine ad from 1995
Edit: contemporary article about it where the author is extremely mad that a right wing french politician is among the rogues gallery
Edit 2: "Your cheeky chappies have included Napoleon on the poster, too. What is this, get the French week? Or are we simply witnessing an American entertainment company (Virgin Interactive Entertainment is owned by Viacom) displaying to Europe how ignorant it is of European history?
For the record, the Napoleonic armies of revolutionary France swept away medieval despotism across Europe, destroyed the archaic Holy Roman Empire, and broke the repressive hold of the Catholic Church on secular states in what is now Germany. Of course, Napoleon later turned towards autocracy and had himself crowned emperor, but that just illustrates my point: real life is more complicated and more interesting than the nerdish simplicities of advertising and computer games."
