Spelunker HD brings the fragile explorer to PSN November 23

We know of at least one weirdo who has been patiently waiting for the North American release of Spelunker HD — because he's writing this post. Those of you who, like me, are looking forward to joining up with five friends and exploring ghost-filled caves as an adventurer who can't fall more than about five feet without dying, will be able to do so on November 23.

That's when the long-awaited (again, by me) Spelunker HD arrives on PSN for $9.99. It features both new, updated HD graphics and a "retro mode" which displays the new game in authentic 8-bit style. Check out a trailer after the break — a trailer that features surprisingly long stretches of death-free gameplay.
