At last, the sounds intended for the Doom Playstation Arch Vile are released for you enjoyment! As you may know, the Arch Vile was cut from the game due to performance and memory restraint issues. However, before that decision was made I had already recorded a first pass set of voiceovers that were ready to get implemented once he was working correctly. Sadly, he was removed from the game and the sounds never did get used. After years of getting questions and requests from fans about these sounds I finally found the time to dig through all my old archives in search of them. I found the original recordings and went ahead and edited them and applied some mild effects based on the approach I used with most of the other monster sounds. The sounds are in 4 categories: idle, attack, pain and death. Feel free to use them in your mods, remixes, fan pages or any other way regarding your love for all things Doom. One important note…These were never tested in the game so I am not going to guarantee how well they’ll fit with the rest of the soundscape. I never had the chance to iterate and weed through them to make sure they are awesome. Who knows, I may have scrapped them entirely after hearing them in game or I may have loved them. Hearing them now after all these years does bring back memories though. Enjoy!
