I played the previous two Arkham games and I know there was a way to jump on temporarily downed enemies (the ones with stars floating around their heads) and finish them off so they wouldn't get back up. I just started Arkham Origins and can't figure out how to do this, though, and looking in the control options didn't show me any particular button that I need to press.
I'm pretty sure I always had that ability from the start in the previous games. Have I just not unlocked it yet, or am I just not finding the right button combo to press?

The PlayStation 3 button combination is R2 + Triangle and it is Right Trigger + Y on 360, this makes Batman leap on top of the downed enemy and knock them out. This move is available from the beginning of the game, no unlocking required.
Be wary using it though as it is time consuming and leaves you vulnerable to being attacked for a short period, similar to the previous games.
Thanks to Sterno for providing the 360 button combo.
