No, there's no way Kinect is anywhere near as accurate as PS Move or Wii Motion Plus. Those things are pretty much 1:1, at least in all practical purposes. The kinect as you can see from that video and pretty much every other game out there has almost half a second lag between you performing a move and it being registered. This is huge when compared to no latency that a controller provides and can make or break in a hardcore game. I'm fairly sure the Kinect's inability to detect accurately without latency is what caused a game like Star Wars Kinect to fail which required precise input of moves.
That said I'm very much looking forward to Kinect 2.0. I think with that MS have probably upgraded things to get rid of any (noticable) latency and even have finger tracking with multiple people on screen. Mirror's edge 2 can be an actual playable possibility without the aforementioned problems with Kinect 2.0, but not with the Kinect as it is right now.
