Regardless of what the critics say I want to know how much it will sell.

Here's a hint "It won't sell as much as Gran Turismo". 

We all know that and BTW what does gran turismo have to do with forza selling.  

130K preorders seem OK but I wonder if it's going to beat forza 4s lifetime. 

Itll be hard to do anything like that. Its a console launch. There will be limited consoles for awhile. Even if Xbox One sells 8-10 mill first year Forza 4 numbers would mean 50% bought it. Maybe in 3 years Forza 5 can push 4-5 mill.

Isn't forza a reknowned franchise ? How is it getting that low of a preorder anyways ?  

Dont forget theres a day 1 bundle in EU where you get it free with the console Digitally. Forza 5 will sell just fine. Most people like me who want it, got the bundle.

I'll see how this will transpire in the coming days.

No? Oh man.

On the real, like I said people will mostly get 1 or 2 games and Ryse and K.I. are the new kids on the block, so they will get many pre-orders based on curiosity and nostalgia.
