How do I get vs2008's intellisense member list to show full signatures?

Question

I saw a blog post the other day that had a screen shot of intellisense's member list that looked like this:

DateTime. -> [Compare(DateTime, DateTime) int]
             [DaysInMonth(int, int)       int]
             ...

Instead of mine which looks like:

DateTime. -> [Compare    ]
             [DaysInMonth]
             ...

How do I setup my vs2008 IDE so that my member list looks like the first example?

Could it be that they were using ReSharper? ReSharper's Intellisense is definitely nicer than Visual Studio's - apart from anything else, when it's showing overloads, it shows several at a time - I can never stand the way Visual Studio does that...

I've just checked, and I don't believe ReSharper does this by default but there's an option under ReSharper / Options / Environment / Intellisense / Completion Appearance: "Show member signatures". Turning that on gives the parameter types as desired.

I don't think vanilla Visual Studio has an equivalent option.
