Any of you guys ever read this? It's a very comprehensive article about Pac-Man, the deep inner working of the game, etc. Each of the four ghosts actually has their own movement mechanisms, and it gets pretty complex.
Simply put...
Blinky, the red one, hauls ass directly for you.
Pinky, the pink one, tries to anticipate where you're going.
Inky, the blue one, judges where Blinky is going to chase you and heads you off at the pass.
Clyde, the orange one, chases you, but once he gets close enough, he's like "Fuck this, I'm going home."
They go really in-depth into this article the way the Shoryuken crowd goes in-depth into fighting games. It's a pretty neat read.
