Barneys have a collective consciousness.
Well it's the only theory that actually fits!
In Blueshift you are a Barney. Not the Barney. In HL2 we meet the one Barney to rule them all, and all is well.
Valve didn't really know what they were getting themselves into for HL1, now they do. I'd seriously suggest considering HL2 and the real starting point for the half-life universe story line, and everything before it as just preamble or something...

in hl1 they were all barneys.
because of the characters popularity among fans valve later allowed the add-on blueshift to embrace the character in its own way and as the story has flexibley developed into hl2 we see that one main barney character return in its own fully unique way as a single character.
in blue shift u play "the Barney" "Barney Calhoun" who is the main barney taken from hl. and this barney calhoun as we now know him is the barney taken into hl2. for us older fans he is the epitome of all the original barneys and is that great character emboldened in tis own right and we all love him as th familiar friendly face and voice he is.

You are all damn wrong. In HL, there is a secret passageway in one of the maps, I forget which, where you travel down a long corridor leading to a door. This door has a sign on it written in a strange language. You open the door and walk into a dimly lit room where there is a group of Barneys surrounding a burning HEV suit. No words are spoken, but they all look at you with those beady eyes. After a few uncomfortable moments, they all begin chanting in monotone unison, "Catch me later, I'll buy you a beer...catch me later I'll buy you a beer..." Their eyes begin to glow red and they all suddenly warp to a destination unknown.
So you see, all Barneys in HL are simply clones programmed by the Combine to provide a false sense of companionship. But in fact, they are spy drones used to gather information about you.
