God this game and series is crap. Just like the LBP extremely overrated. Forza will never match GT.

?

Aside from individual game sales, The Forza series releases 3x as fast as GT, and they all got in the 90's on metacritic. Its pure delusion or biased personal preference to claim what you did. 

Of course its personal preference what else did you think it to be? But most of the people I know who have bought Forza 4 said it didn't hold a candle to GT5. And if any Forza had GT type expectations it wouldn't be acheiving these high scores. Rarely do I know any games that have high scores such as these and still don't manage to sell well standalone in most places. Where as GT5 can sell over 7 million within a year with hardly any bundles.

Proof GT5 expectations were severly high:

According to IGN GT5 prologue and GT5 both scored 8.5!! GT5 added over 1000 cars 72 tracks (night, snow, dessert, rain etc.) go karting and an amazing online MP and even then gets the same score as a demo version of the game. The only weakness I found was the damage and the and the 2D trees. Other than that its a perfect racing game. 

- If its personal preference you should be saying "it isnt your taste". Saying the series "is crap" when its above 90 just makes you look silly. 

- "if any Forza had GT type expectations it wouldn't be acheiving these high scores". Reviewers review games based on their own quality, not hype. That comment is pure fail propaganda. 

- While Forza sales arent as high as GT5 sales, they still match the sales of most big PS3 exclusive sales. As for GT5....it took over 5 years to make. No wonder it opened so big. 

- As for your last paragraph, I just like to say GT5 online cant hold a candle to Forza online modes......and out of 1000 cars only 200 are current gen. 

Sales is just about the only thing GT has now.
