I agree with your overall argument, but I feel I should correct this.
Forza 4 isn't selling any worse than Forza 3. The difference is that Forza 3 has been out more than three times as long. Forza 3 sold less than 2 million in the year it released. Forza 4 sold roughly the same amount in that year. The year after that, Forza 3 sold almost 2.5 million. Forza 4 isn't up to that level now, but that may be because it's only mid-year, and game sales are mostly holiday-heavy. The only thing that will really dampen Forza 4 from selling as well as Forza 3 is the announcement of the Xbox successor.
And claiming that Turn 10 sells "less and less with every game" just doesn't make sense. Forza 3 outsold Forza 2, which outsold Forza 1. The Forza series is Turn 10's only output, and two out of the three successive games (not counting Forza 1, since it set the starting point) saw greater sales than the one before it. And Forza 4 may make it three out of three.
My only criticism is that Turn 10 seem to be making another Forza for release less than a year after the previous one.
