The Barney models, original (left) and HD (right) comparison. To reflect some of the weapon changes with the high definition models, new sounds were given to the shotgun and assault rifle, as well as new sprites for the game's HUD. The Glock 17 was replaced by a Beretta 92FS, the Colt Python by a Colt Anaconda, and the MP5 submachine gun by a Colt Model 727 assault rifle. This included some notable changes to the game's original arsenal. In addition, all of the weapon models were upgraded as well.
