Connection sharing with XP

I've read that Internet sharing on a network for WindowsXP is built in, meaning you wouldn't need any additional software. Is this true? If so, would all I have to is select to share the ISP on the server, and change all the IPs to 192.168.0.*?

Currently at my home we use WinProxy to share the connection, but it is always crashing or causing problems, and playing games isn't possible. If the above paragraph is true, would I be able to play Jazz2 without having to mess around with port forwarding or whatever?

I'm rather clueless here...so any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
