My 8 year old cat Smokey did that for a while when we introduced the first new cat into our family. He acted as though he felt slighted. He would hiss at you when you walked by but has never hurt anyone. He was just jealous. I always make sure to hang out with just him once in a while so that he knows that I still love him. We also make sure he's given treats first, etc. He was here first, so he gets things first. It has taken a little while but he has come around. He's (almost) back to his loving, cuddling self. It just takes time and patience.
You have to remember that anything new in a fickle cat's life disrupts his normal flow of things. They get very attached to people and the slightest change may make him act a bit strange. But, like I said before, I'm sure everything will be fine. Good luck to you!
