The chips are not inherently psychotic; it\\\'s outright stated that the chips are capable of enhancing any programming they\\\'re plugged into, bringing it up to (supposedly) human levels of complex thought and learning ability. The problem comes from the inherent \\\"Kill All Gorgonites\\\" programming in the Commandos\\\' being supplemented by the chips; it\\\'s outright stated by the creator of the chips that the problem lies in the software of the toys, not the chips. The Gorgonites demonstrate every bit as much capability in the learning and intelligence departments as the Commandos; they\\\'re just programmed to be pacifistic.
