I've made it to the Strip and killed Benny, now I'm supposed to go to the 38 Casino and I know that Mr. House will automatically take the chip away and upgrade to soldier robots. Now from conversations I've had in game. It seems as though I should be able to do something else and turn control of the robots over to another faction. Is this real or just a red herring? Will the securitrons always be under the control of Mr. House (or myself if I go wildcard) or is there a way to give them to my allies the NCR? Just curious as I don't really want to give House the upper hand if I'm going to have to fight his ass later on. Alternatively, I suppose if there is a way to ally NCR and House together than this wouldn't matter.

I let House upgrade the securitrons, which was probably a mistake as I want to help the NCR, so im in the same boat as you.I assume it wont be too much of a problem.Theres a couple of weapons in the game that can one shot a robot if it comes to that.

No other faction wants control of the Securitrons. Caesar hates technology and the NCR don't even seem to realize they can. The only person other than Mr. House who can end up in control of them is the player.

You don't have to worry about fighting Securitrons later on, regardless of your faction. The factions are smart enough that they know the proper way to deal with them.

Ahhh. I see. Alrighty then, I'll have to go speak to Mr. House. There was something that Yes Man said that made me think I could turn control of the Securitrons over to whoever I wanted. Thanks for the info sir.
