Madden '06 also requests a firmware upgrade. I'm not sure if it will work with SOCOM, but with Madden, if I start playing another game and then quickly swap the disc with Madden (during the PSP screen) it lets me play without upgrading.
Some games (GTA:LCS) actually require some of the codecs from the firmware update and cannot be run without it.
Good luck!
